I was there when Mike had a no no in the 9th only to end with a 1 hitter on a ground ball with eyes between 1st and 2nd. I saw Carl throw guys out at 3rd that killed rallies. Well deserved.First a Baseball fan then a Volleyball fan and then I guess I follow the basketball team.

Obviously, the committee feels differently. I would be interested in hearing other old-timers opinions on this topic.

I believe Wichita State continues to drop the ball here. They are missing an opportunity to present both the young and old with a teaching moment.
There is nothing wrong in recognizing past achievements while learning from mistakes. I also happen to know Len Elmore would be interested in being involved, something that shouldn't be ignored.
There are other factors in play, which get little coverage, and I understand the consternation. It's also unlikely you'll find a more ardent opponent of illicit drugs and alcohol. They are both a scourge on our society, and drug dealers in particular aren't dealt with harshly enough in this country, imho.
All that being said, I continue to believe we are missing a golden opportunity here, and I hope it changes.
