Cool interview with Dan Evans, about the changes with the AI umps! What a great guy, baseball ambassador, and friend!!! Happy Opening Day!!! npr.org/2026/03/25/nx-… @DanEvans108

OTD, 1999: Marcus Fizer's dunk in the final minute provided the winning margin in ISU's 52-50 victory over Kansas (the first of 5 in a row for the Cyclones over the Jayhawks). The game aired on CBS, with Gus Johnson and Dan Bonner on the call.

Bobby Douglas was one of the greatest icons in the sport of wrestling, but if you met him, you wouldn't know it. Humble, giving and kind is how most of us who were blessed to work with him remember him. Enjoy this photo of Coach Douglas as a member of the U.S. Olympic Team.

@Beener1435 What a find! Well done Mike!!!

Absolutely awful news of the passing of Bill Courtney. Great guy, was an assistant at a bunch of stops, most recently at Temple, and head coach at Cornell from 2010-16. Bill Courtney literally always had a smile every time I saw him. Just a really good person. This is so sad.

I will never forget our conversations about Bronco’s boxing career and his CYO fight against Don Amidei, in which he defeated Amidei, but the newspaper saluted Amidei as the Bishop Shiell Sportsmanship award winner in huge headlines.

A great Blue Demon! Hall of Fame Boxer Bronco Telkes!!!

My friend Mabel Landry Staton (on the right) was featured in the New York Times today. What a fitting tribute to her! nytimes.com/interactive/20…

Dec. 2, 1978 The Blue Demons defeated Northern Illinois, 108-86, in their home opener behind a 36 pt. effort by Mark Aguirre. The freshman made 16 FG, the second most at the time in school history, only George Mikan had more in 1945. DePaul dominated the Huskies with 20 steals.

Dec. 2, 2012 The Blue Demons blitzed Northwestern 89-61 in Doug Bruno's 800th DePaul game. Megan Rogowski led with 22 pts. Brittany Hrynko finished with 17 pts, 6 rebounds & 6 assists, while Jasmine Penny had 13 pts and 6 rebounds. Katherine Harry scored 11 pts & 15 boards.

Following today's "Today in Blue Demon History", I saw that the "best magazine cover" ever was released on Dec. 1, 1980, thanks to the Davenport Sports Network on Facebook.

Dec. 1, 1955 DePaul opened the 1955-56 season with an 84-66 win over Illinois Wesleyan behind 29 pts from Ron Sobiezczyk. The All-American had 10 FG and went 9-12 from the line. Ken Jaksy added 21 points. The win marked DePaul’s 107th straight home win, dating back to 1938.

Dec. 1, 2010 Field Trip Day has been a tradition for DePaul women’s basketball for ages. With 3,000 children packed into McGrath Arena, DePaul topped Illinois State, 100-83. Keisha Hampton led with 30 pts, while Felicia Chester and Anna Martin each added 14.

Nov. 30, 1968 Ray Meyer opened his 27th season at DePaul with a 95-62 win over Doane. Al Zetsche led the way for the Blue Demons with 24 points and added 10 boards. Joey Meyer, Thomas Hunter, and Ken Warzynski all added double-figures with 16, 13, 14 pts, respectively.

Nov. 30, 2020 Six Blue Demons in double figures paved the way for a record-setting 128-66 win over Chicago State. The previous record had been 124 pts vs Savannah State in 2018. The Blue Demons knocked down 19 treys. Kendall Holmes scored a game-high 23 points.

Bball Paul with the double-double off the bench btw
