BEVERLY HILLS (MI) – The University of Dayton Flyers take their one game win streak on the road for a neutral court encounter with Wyoming at the United Center in Chicago. As win skeins go, that’s as short as you can get, but it sure beats the alternative. The contest with the Cowboys represents the last remaining true test before the Atlantic 10 schedule gets under way.
If UD has any aspirations to be a dominant force in the conference, then a statement victory in the Windy City is a must.
Just do it!

– I posted a link to this article on the UDPride MB, but it bears repeating. It’s an excerpt from the book
Rethinking Fandom by Craig Calcaterra. It chronicles his transition from die hard Buckeye football follower to a “casual fan.” There is a lesson here for all of us:
