Gus Johnson - ISU love

[Fletch]

I'm watching the USC, Stanford game and Gus just gave us props for our 96-97 Squad when Tim was coaching. I was impressed that he reeled off the starting line up adding "THEY ... WERE...FORMIDABLE!"

I got the chills!!! Damn we used to be good!

That seems like 50 years ago.

Haha thats because it WAS 12 years ago. We are kinda like Hawk fans with football... looking back to the glory years

I was watching the 100 yr anniversary DVD last week and went thru the section on those teams... yes, they were VERY good... the right ingredients... a monstrous center, a deadeye at the 2 guard, 2 power forwards, one a D specialist, the other with insane inside moves, and a point guard who distributed very well.

Yes, Gus is great, and it was nice to see some ISU love.

I love that DVD. And people don't believe me that ISU has had a lot of really good teams and players.

Man, some people are blind :sad:

I love Gus in the big dance. His enthusiasm is infectious, and he actually seems like he's done his homework, and knows who these guys are. (as opposed to one special effort earlier this year)
