That 94 team was fun to watch.  Glad they are recognizing them.  Obviously beat Kentucky to go to the sweet 16.  But they also gave Duke a run for their money in the next game.

Pre-Covid Mike Brey is pleased.

Hard to argue, but I must say that NIT run was great for us undergrads at the time. Especially the MECCA game.

Sounds like the Wojo era. Watching an NIT game at MECCA.

I think the '95 NIT was fun because of the circumstances of that team. They weren't that far removed from being really bad, plus with O'Neil leaving, and Key, Logterman and Mac graduating, I think there were concerns about how good they were actually going to be.

They were 12-10 at one point...went on a nice little streak to finish the season...went 1-1 in the Great Midwest tournament. So they had to rally to even get into the NIT.

So there was optimism. And it was well-placed optimism because the 95-96 team was pretty good! #4 seed with a bad match up against #12 Arkansas in the second round.

Man, if you somehow have access to that game I'd love to relive it. I started going to games with my dad the first year the BC was open, I had never seen MU play at the MECCA. I was 9, and I couldn't believe the atmosphere that night. Still one of my favorite games, NIT or not.

That run was the springboard for Hutch, who was such a fun, clutch player for MU.

I've tried searching for it with no luck.

At muoverload.com > Game Videos I started compiling game videos from YouTube.  I hope to go through and fill that up here shortly.

I'd leave it in and do throwback jerseys to 1951 - including the shorts and the shoes!

Quote from: K1 Lover on January 16, 2025, 11:29:52 AMTruthfully I'm surprised we don't do white-outs more regularly. So far we've gotten two this year and that's probably plenty. But if I'm not mistaken (please correct me if I'm wrong), I don't think we had a single one last year, and I can't recall if we had one the year before that either.

White-outs obviously do a great job of encouraging students/fans to attend big games, so you'd think the staff would be a little more intentional with them. But fortunately it does seem like they've turned that around this season.

Ok, I'm not a sweater vest, but I am old.  How or why does a white out encourage students/fans to attend a game?

I'm not sure if I'm on the fence about going to a game that a white out would be the deciding factor.  Just askin'

Older fans, maybe not. But students, definitely. I also say this as someone who's a young alumnus.

Even in high school, white-outs have always been great motivators to attend games. It's simply fun to be part of a huge white mob (don't take this the wrong way). Student sections by themselves aren't always noticeable, but a group clad in white always sticks out. It promotes unity and helps you feel involved. Being asked to show up in a specific color also enables students to get more creative with their appearance than they normally would (e.g., body paint), and that, in turn, encourages participation. Any time you have a special theme, it feels like a holiday.

Nowadays, you could also say it has to do with social media. There isn't a soul in my generation that doesn't live on Instagram. And none of us can resist the opportunity to post a unique photo that shows us doing fun things. A photo at a white-out always garners tons of likes since everyone - even strangers - can relate to the experience. Everyone's Instagram feed was always filled with white-out posts for the 24 hours after they happened, and those who didn't attend were more likely to feel left out.

So yeah, they do a good job of promoting attendance.

You know 'sweater vest' is more of a vibe then a clothing choice, right?

Mac says that Ron Curry is going to be there too.....which is nice.

I can assure you, rocky_warrior, that I, a human, wrote the previous response. It's understandable to be skeptical, as AI technology has advanced significantly, and sometimes it can be challenging to differentiate between human-generated and AI-generated content. However, in this case, a human crafted the response based on personal experiences and observations.

I hope this clarification helps! Let me know if you have any further questions or if there's anything else I can assist you with.

Not really - they got my money for a white MU shirt.  First (and probably only) game of the year for me due to my travel schedule.  Really lookin forward to it!
