Pics on the rag

[Rickybaby]

Anyone see the "classic media day photos" on the register's web site? Kinda fun. Lots of photos from the past. A bunch of familiar faces and some that didn't register (pun). I wish they would have had more of Barry Stevens he was always one of my favorites. They had one but it wasn't very good. They had a classic pic from one of Mac's teams; 2006 with Dunson, Johnson&Johnson, Mike Taylor, and McIntosh. None of these guys ever panned out and bailed as soon as they could. There was a pic of Kenny Pratt. I forgot what an evil looking dude he was. After that pic guess I'm not surprised he ran from the cops; I guess I'm surprised that it took so long to get there. LOL. Anyway, I thought it was well worth the look. Oh, I couldn't get the pics to show up in Firefox and had to switch to IE; don't know why.

Yeah, I can never get the DSM Registers photo galleries to work in Firefox and have to switch to IE just to click through them.

Those are cool. I forgot how ugly the Cato/Willoughby/Pratt era jerseys were.

I thought the DM Register didst waste their time doing anything ISU?

Great pics, thanks for the link.

The picture of Grayer and Johnny in front of Hilton were cool. Snappy outfit Johnny had on.

Lot of good memories.

Question...?Wasn't the 2000 team picked at or near the bottom of the Big 12?

really great job by the register - that's an area where they can provide proprietary content, since websites don't have archives of photos like that. i thought the pictures were great!

I think I remember something like that too. And they got beat by Drake early on.

Haha, yeah I was thinking that too. Throw in the Seneca Wallace jersey era with blue trim and it's like, wtf is that?

The entire 'let's start using navy blue" idea was one big WTF

Picture #24 is a perfect synopsis of McDermott's tenure, all players that left before their tenure was up.

The thread title is not appealing

Still waiting for Cyclone Central.

Yeah, who names their daughter "pic" anyway? Is that short for something?

IIRC for 1999-2000 we were picked to finish dead last. It's a matter of conjecture, though - some people remember us being picked to finish in the top half of that season (which I don't remember at all - the media thought we were going to be BAAAD that year)

Winning makes bad uniforms look good...

Yeah, I just went through the slide show, and noticed pic 24. I was going to post a link to that as the All-Star Didn't-Work-Out Team.

I mean, just wow.


It was cool to see all those media day pics from the past.
