Actually the Charlie Hall story took almost two full pages. That is likely the most ink the trib. has allocated to NU basketball, ever.
Sportsworld needs a story and I have a hunch that the local media is going to start covering us a bit more if we go 5-2. Im hoping that we still ride under the radar a bit longer though.
So we can sneak up on people, maybe? You know, like we've sometimes done in football. ; )
Fear. When we get under the prime spotlights it just seems like we fail really bad. Not all the time but enough. Im pessimistic without a reason because this really is a good team. We may even win the BIG.
If we are ever going to consistently be a good team, we better learn to handle media attention. The same is true about football. In the meantime, I will take all the media attention we can get.
