    The on again/off again nature of this thing almost seems insulting to Skip, IMO. Either honor him or don't honor him, but don't attempt to honor him on such a choppy basis.
    Maybe Wake finally hung enough NIT banners to realize that scheduling games like these will help them make the real tournament next season.

    TCU isn't far for me, so I might get to see a Xavier game in person this year. And James Posey's kid might be playing on the other team. Fun.

    Sorry. I missed that the Great Paul Fristchner had already noted.

    Coincidentally, the new downtown baseball field here in Spartanburg, which will open next year, is Fifth Third Park.
    The bank is expanding into the South, and has one small branch here in the city. They decided to invest in the city with naming rights.
    We'll have minor league baseball back in the city next year...the Hub City Spartanburgers. (not sure about this name at all.)

    Our MiLB mascot is a surge of wind. So a hamburger isn't SO bad!
