Nate , following is my opinion--but History backs up a lot of it.
The Chicago print media is and has been in bed with DePewl, Notre Dame and the Big ten for decades--NOT years but decades. I do not believe that the treatment or lack of it, shall I say , is fair to LOYOLA. In fact , it is down right unjust. But like the National print media and most of the Broadcast News is hand in glove with the Democrats , it is there. We must deal with it--We shall by winning--The locals will hate this at first but as we establish ourselves as the dominant Hoops school in Chicago and soon Illinois, they will wake up--Why ? Because they are frontrunners and that is what it is.
OK, if indeed we would get the publicity that the above get almost daily, our attendance would grow proportionately-- The "curious" would venture north to see our resurgence.
It is ironic that CRAIN's --Business organ-- gives us the best write-up we have had all year. Sad but true !
GO RAMBLERS--Two more wins !!!
