Notable Coaches Region 1 vs 16
« on: May 11, 2015, 09:40:05 AM »
Tackling Dummy

This one I'm having to go off memory as it seems to predate MUScoop(or at least I can't find it).  Near the tail end of an already questionable season, lead player Travis Diener(senior year) was reported to have broken his hand in practice.  This injury ended his season leading to MU having to go with Marcus Jackson at point forward and the results were bad.  However, rumors started flowing out of MU that Travis had broken his hand tackling a football dummy in some weird drill former HC Tom Crean came up with.  It has never been verified as a true story but that hasn't stopped every reported injury of an MU player to have been caused by said tackling dummy


Hologram Al

A twitter meme cross over during the latest MU coaching search melt down.  Hologram Al was an homage to MU great Al McGuire and he was "brought back to live" as a hologram(see Hologram Tupac).  For a time, during the Shaka meltdown, Hologram Al was suggested as MU's next coach.  It turns out he was unavailable and we moved on.

This can't be titled right, Tackling Dummy a 1 seed? Swap with I4?

Tackling dummy is a 1 seed.  Algorithm is not to be questioned  ;)
