I love the frisbee dogs and the Pacers dunk team and Quick Change and Red Panda but Unicycle Guy had unlimited pizzazz!

The Kings Firecrackers do nothing impressive. Everyone knows it. And if you ask me, they all have attitude problems.

Won 20th game Feb 24 1999. That count?

Looks like 1st round of the MAC tourney in 98/99 was at home sites. So I think last time in Millett as a 20-win team was 2/27/99.

We used to play 24 regular season games, no one who was not D1. Gradually that has changed. This year we have 31 regular season games and 2 D3 games. Kind of an apples to oranges type of comparison.

W also used to play UC, X, and UD twice a year, so a much tougher non league slate. Also, right now the MAC is ranked as low as it has ever been among the 32 D1 conferences, so league competition is not the same either. I mean we used to normally have 4 or 5 future NBA on league rosters.

Still, we are not stopping at 20 wins, plenty of chances to lift that number much higher.

I don’t count it, because technically we weren’t a 20-win team until it was over.

Dick- Not quite apples to oranges. I know you’ve been following Miami basketball a lot longer than me, but it’s been quite a while since teams have played only 24 regular season games. The 1994-95 I referenced played 26. Their first game that season was against non-D1 Heidelberg.

The last time we won 19 games was 2004-05, and we played 27 regular season games, including one against non-D1 Findlay. Since the 2012-13 season, we have played at least 29 regular season games and at least 31 overall and yet amassed more than 15 wins just twice, and that includes this season.

In Miami basketball’s 100+ year history, this may not be super impressive, but looking at the last 20-30 years, it certainly is.

I’ll ride and die with you on that one. The greatest “what the fuck?” ending of any act I’ve ever seen.

Red Panda is great. I’ve probably seen her about half-a-dozen times at Duke-UNC games or the ACC tournament, and the act never fails to impress.

Miami University, where our fans only show up when tickets are free.

Scoreboard here says 21-8 at the U12, but I think they have 9.

39

They don’t. The shooter had a foot on the line for the “3”. Bake got tripped up by it too.

Students won’t come unless the arena is closer to uptown-you know-Cook Field!:laughing:
