[QUOTE="PerennIaLL, post: 1379075, member: 587080"] Not even close, that was my junior year. Basketball was coming off a conference season championship the prior year and everyone knew we were in for a rebuilding year but had talent coming in. While they didn’t win a lot of games, they were competitive. Plus they fought to the championship game of the Big Ten Tournament. Football was winless the year before that, so the 2-6 conference record was an improvement and there was some hope, which came to fruition the next two years with MicronPC Bowl and Sugar Bowl. Unfortunately, we are no where close to that level today. [/QUOTE]
