While surfin', I stumbled upon this Nov. '09 article...
WARNING:
This story & awe-inspiring team picture will cause you
to laugh your arse off!!!!!
Per Dayton Daily News.......
UD men's basketball team ready for a fight — literally
The coaches told him they wanted their players “out of their element, their comfort zone, their cushy surroundings” at the Donoher Center and on the University of Dayton campus.
That’s how the Dayton Flyers basketball team — for the first two months of the school year, one day a week — ended up in downtown Dayton at Drake’s Gym, a place that is many things, though “cushy” is not one of them.
When the Flyers walked into the old produce warehouse turned no-frills fight and fitness club — where they’d hoist truck tires, pound on Shaq-sized heavy bags and, as London Warren now remembers it, “do 5,000 push-ups” — they were greeted by the unsmiling images of legends like Roberto Duran and Muhammad Ali staring down at them from the walls, walls painted with one prevailing message: “No Whining.”
