    Making a little progress on the new Jumbotron, I’m guessing that they are retrofitting the old structure. The old ribbon led boards are removed from the west stands.

    Attended around the same time. Jackson Street Pub has the best horseshoe! Happy to hear they are still around. Haven't been back to that part of the state in 25 years. Macomb is the crossroads to nowhere.

    They used to have a quality program in the 90s. Bryan Cox and Rodney Harrison are two players from that era. Watched Western play Montana and Mississippi State in the playoffs. Sad to witness the decline of WIU.

    Saturday afternoon, after Illinois plays WIU Nasir Rankin and Will Vala will face off against each other at Morgan Park. This game should be a little more exciting to watch. Not sure if this game will be broadcast, most DGN homes are live on youtube. Only 18 days until the season starts!
