Secret Scrimmage...

That game showed our true potential. Ash played even with Mac that game and we beat elite eight Loyola.
And that Loyola team made it to the Final Four. I don't see any shame in that. The game said more about the strength of Loyola than it did NU's difficulties or the year.
I can’t say what will happen in the future, but I can say it’s an ncaa violation if they’re not. They’re supposed to be very, very lockdown about these scrimmages.
Wow. I was just wondering if WR 2.0 was going to be up and running at that time.
Couldn't agree more. Games two years ago like @Butler, even though we lost that one at the buzzer, showed people that we had a good team that could play in tough environments. We should be willing to schedule home-and-aways with any solid mid-major, especially Loyola.
i don't believe CCC will schedule regular season games against a friend. i thought that was in an interview when NU went to Stanford against Dawkins. he is against ruining friendships with regular season match-ups (outside of tournaments)
I remember hearing that Loyola beat the **** out of the Cats last year. Few weeks after that they smoked Florida at Florida. Then went to the Final 4 and had a halftime lead over UM to go to the Championship
That was a reallllllllllllllly good Loyola team

Anybody want to come with me when I sneak into the building to watch? I have broken into a lot of buildings over the years.
Ever go into the tunnels underneath campus? That was a favorite activity back in my day.
With all the cheating going on, I'm a bit surprised that the NCAA allows anything secret. What's next a secret football game? I'm sure Fitz would love that.
We used to do that quite often. Had small parties down there. Busted into the Searle building (comms) - since the statute of limitations is over, I guess I can talk about how certain acquaintances of mine made off with crumple cloth towels, a fire extinguisher, a vacuum cleaner, a couple cases of Old Style (not sure how they found that), a whiteboard, and a tapestry from the lobby that anyone who went into that building saw that hung in our apartment that year and then down in Lakewood for a few years after. FWIW, I must say that I did not approve at the time and would not say I was a part of these shenanigans, though the crumple cloth was very handy for spills which were frequent in our apartment, and the fire extinguisher did come in handy in another brilliant incident involving an out of control grill after another bright mind felt it necessary to test through experiment the flammability of a half bottle of Everclear. A former roommate and his fraternity brother were finally busted breaking into Tech by UP through those tunnels but got off with a warning. They swore that there were motion detectors, because those UP guys got there in a hurry.
