To answer some questions...
1) I'm Greek ethnically. As in "Mount Olympus", not "mount a sorority chick after you GHB her drink".
2) I'm not the biggest donor in school history, and I probably exhausted my connections just to get the 3 tickets we put in for yesterday. You're on your own for tickets. I may be the only message board poster/blog proprietor in D-1 athletics history who can say that their school's SID called their boss and (arguably) tried to get them fired, AND had their AD contact the university attorney to investigate the possibility of a lawsuit. We're all friends again, I think... But you can probably do a lot better than having me try to pull strings to get you tickets.
3) I never got to meet Coach Gennaro. After I got caught up in that bar fight defending Scott Bakula, the crusty old dean had me expelled. It wasn't until he got his comeuppance that I was able to re-enroll, and by then, Coach Gennaro had to retire due to heart problems.
I'm flattered by the warm welcome you guys are giving me. It's nice to meet fans of a school that can appreciate playing the premiere basketball program in the state of Texas.
