One year in baseball we played both California (Pa) and Indiana (Pa). I'd never heard of either. Geographical confusion to the max when I saw the schedule. I had no idea why universities in both Cal and Ind put "(Pa)" in their names. Also why Cal would come to Davidson to play a game. Long way.catnhat wrote:Tommy McConnell '83- presently the WBB HC at DII California of PA went to a JC near Pittsburgh.
Sometimes it's nice to just "dangle" something out there, knowing full well that at least 1 of about 5 people are going to give me the answer without askingcollegecoach8502 wrote:Doubtful...I'm sure somewhere in our entire basketball history we have added a JUCO, but can't imagine more than a couple.BDL wrote:Does anyone think we will add a JUCO forward at some point for next year? In my opinion we still need 2 more post players to feel good (hopefully luka is one of them).
Also, I do think there will be alot of kids available late as the FBI scandal will progress.
Shaka Smart, who played at Kenyon College, coached at California and received his masters there. Jimmy Stewart was born in Indiana. Tommy McConnell is the uncle of TJ McConnell, now with the 76ers, but formerly of Duquesne and Chartiers Valley, Pa. TJ played the best game I have ever seen a high school player play in the Pa state D3 championship game (2010). TJ is a good friend of Tom Droney. Droney's team won the small school D1 division state championship the same day McCConnell's Char Valley team lost to the # 5 team in the country (Philadelphia Neumann Goretti, which had 4 D1 seniors) by 2 pts. McConnell was the only player for Char Valley who played college basketball. One of their players did get a football scholarship to Arizona, but he later transferred to Duquesne.stan wrote:One year in baseball we played both California (Pa) and Indiana (Pa).

Over the years I have known (even worked for) a few older codgers that once they got a notion or pronunciation in their heads simply could not revise it. Imagine the job interviews with someone asking about your college days in California. Insisting that an interviewer is wrong is generally not regarded as a great technique for snagging a position.
The regional administrative units of the United Methodist Church are called "annual conferences." The name started from the yearly conference that Methodist preachers in England attended, and still makes sense today in that the conference where main decisions for that unit take place meets once a year (plus occasional called sessions). The structure roughly corresponds to a diocese in other traditions, and similarly is presided over by a bishop.stan wrote:One year in baseball we played both California (Pa) and Indiana (Pa).

He was there with JJ Kuhlman's brother.
