From the Sippin' On Purple article about Mitch Henderson as a potential candidate for the NW head coach: "Mitch Henderson imprinted himself in the annals of March Madness with a backdoor layup with 4 seconds remaining to fell UCLA in the opening round of the '96 tourney." I think they are sippin' on something else . . . or maybe they really meant to write an article about Gabe Lewullis' potential candidacy to be the next NW HC.

Combine that lede with this mistake and I think the story's 100% correct!

Never too early to look ahead. Any foundation for the speculation that Miami and Butler may appear on the Tigers' schedule next season?

I know there's been interest in scheduling the latter in recent years but nothing had materialized.

Will be putting up a "This Is Next Year" thread next week. Perhaps we should save such tidbits for that/then?

The Story

princetonbasketball.com was founded on April 28th, 1998 in an attempt to provide fans of the Princeton Tigers and Ivy League basketball with the best on-line source for up-to-date news and information. We have since expanded to launch a companion site, Georgetown Basketball News.

As these sites have continued to grow we have increased our coverage to include additional teams with Princeton connections - the Richmond Spiders, Denver Pioneers, Oregon State Beavers, Fairfield Stags and Mercer County Community College Vikings - plus former Tigers playing professional baseball and basketball all over the world. This site is not directly affiliated with the Friends of Princeton Basketball, Princeton University or the Princeton athletic department.
