Out in the middle of nowhere but possibly one of the prettiest campus views around. Plus an incredible facility. ( as an added bonus a pretty cool nickname)

Twenty-four turnovers and we still pull it out. Gielo with a double-double 10 pts and 11 rebounds. Vander Pol with 4 blocks. Outrebounded WCU 38-28. Defense looks improved.

...and where I did my grad work! Still love to see us win- and a decent one, at that.

Probably wont hear a word from a certain proud alum after this one...shades of Chris Webber with the finish to this one (although this game wasnt for the national championship)

I'll give you the view. I like the trips to Cullowhee and Boone the most in the SoCon.
I think it's a great facility. Of course I haven't been there in about 15 years but unless they've really let it go downhill it still should be nice.
