[QUOTE="PostersLastStand, post: 1497553, member: 581644"] Living in the Evansville TV market for my early years, all we saw was UK basketball. I couldn't stand it, while many here became homers for UK. Evansville was DII, winning several championships in the 1960s. I loved the Purple Aces, also by the grace of God and a wonderful father I loved the Illini, too, but hardly ever saw them play. I still remember the evening when the news broke the UE Basketball team, coach and staff had perished in a plane crash. My first year of college. They had not been DI long, if I remember correctly. Its does my heart good to see that Walter McCarty has them on the right track, wish I could have seen them take down UK. I had to console my co-workers today, NOT! I might find a Purple Aces shirt for casual friday. [/QUOTE]
