We are now officially 50 days out.

Every day someone needs to toss a cool Indiana State basketball or Terre Haute picture up in this sumbitch.

Already got a good pic for tomorrow. Hopefully I don’t get too busy and can remember to post it.

It’s a pic I referenced just a few weeks ago and was able to find it online.

I'll start this off. TheShop dropped a new Indiana State script t-shirt so I was looking for old shirts and came across a cool auction from back in 2018. It is Larry Bird's warmup. The other thing that was cool is if you go to the link below, look at the 3rd image and tell me what you see.

Kelyn Block consoling an Oklahoma player after State wins in the first round at Memphis.

There is also a photo of Menser doing the same thing that was a full page photo in The Sporting News back when the SN had a large circulation.

Menser consoling a sooner? better that picture than Menser or Block or Renn, etc consoling a iu player from those wins in 1999-2000 or 2000-01...

I was searching the net for a pic of Wichita State’s Ron Baker holding up Jake Oldum’s arm in recognition of Jake’s career while waking him to the sideline after Jake fouled out towards the end of the MVC conference championship game. I was there sitting front row and to this day I think it would’ve been a priceless pic. Anyone know of such a pic out there?

Watch from 1:34 (1 hr 34mins) on. They barely catch it but then show it again on replay. I guess screenshot it or maybe somebody can make a gif.

Thanks for the clip Dino. I was impressed with Baker’s display of respect for Oldam’s
career at a moment in time when both were fierce competitors.

Thanks for the link -- Ron Baker was one of the few classy Wichita City folks, surprised his pro career wasn't longe
Bakers dad hooked me up with extra tickets that year as I stayed at their team hotel. Always enjoyed talking with the Wichita fan base.
