Colt 45 Award: at Loyola Chicago

Post by raptorcat » Fri Feb 02, 2024 2:31 pm

This Sunday, 2/4, with a 1:00 tip-off time. We'd better run Des Watson off the three-point line or he could make us look bad.

As a blast from the recent past, I'm posting a picture of the three illustrious winners prior to Skogman. Most impressive!

Ok now, find me three more handsome dudes anywhere. I know that physical attractiveness is not a criterion, but hey when you got it, flaunt it. Congrats to these three knights of the Realm.

Well now, my bad, that figure at the far right does stand out as his appearance denotes a real gravitas, erudition and quiet confidence. Indeed, a true Davidson gentleperson who writes as well as he looks.

"Gravitas." Hmmm, I have indeed put on some weight over the years.

Rikus. He had some bright moments while he was on the court.

No award. Our bench contributed 7 points.

Rikus didn't light up the stat sheet but was conspicuous in other ways, with his screens, defense and hustle . He gets my vote.

Loyola's bench outscored us 31-7. Dame Adelekun gets my vote. 19 minutes, 12 points, 9 boards. Doubled Davidson's dunk total. That's what a Colt winner looks like.
