GCU has been counting down the days literally on their twitter account. They had a guard drop 42 on Louisville. They will be pysched for this one

At $85K per beatdown, it's one way that a for-profit university can stay afloat.
Way to late for these old bones to watch the whole game.

DeWayne Russell has played in McKale with NAU as a freshman. From Peoria high school and is averaging over 25 pts/game. CSM said he can create his own shot from just about anywhere on the court.

Perhaps someone in the scheduling office has small children like me. A late tip is perfect to watch the game live. Between dinner, bath, story-time and bedtimes, I hate having to pause or record the game to watch later. Daddy like's his sports live.

Wasn't there a time when the Pac schools said they wouldn't schedule "for profit" schools?

As is my understanding, Grand Canyon hopes to get back to non-profit Christian as soon as they can. They went for-profit because the only other alternative was folding.
GCU has semi-revitalized and brought some increased prosperity to that oft-ignored and falling apart area of Phoenix. They really have improved the campus infrastructure which was nearing shithole status in the past. Not all for-profits are built the same, and it seems GCU is at least not predatory DeVry.

What a joke. They make us tip at 9 and they don't even send announcers.
Used to see Corey at Platinum Fitness on Golf Links. Did they fly him back east?

Thunder Dan's resturant kinda blows. His Majerle bars were bad ass circa 1990.

The Majerles restaurant in downtown phoenix now is hot garbage. I remember it being huge and one of the few places you could get a good dinner in the 90s downtown though

Nice #fakenews, ESPN. Created a narrative of GCU "going toe to toe" with top programs, aided by a graphic with "Duke 96-91" up top.
Except the score was 96-61. And I think ESPN aired the game. GCU kept it reasonable with Louisville at home and beat a below average SDSU team.
I love what GCU is doing, but their entire narrative seemed built on a fake score
