John Chaney was as fun to watch on the floor as off the floor.

He was peak fun to watch when trying to kill Calipari at a press conference.

Yeah, we suspected he was playing possum for the regular season finale back in 2003. Revenge was sweet the following year (albeit not against Temple).

I remember that game well. I mostly remember all the UD fans who skipped work and showed up to that afternoon game so they could root against XU.

Trademark UD: taking more joy out of Xavier losing, than the Fayers winning.

I was at that game. I was so disgusted with the Dayton fans, I remember saying I will NEVER go to that dump EVER again.

Joke was on you if you kept that promise (given what happened there a year later). Hope you reconsidered during that year!

That 2004 year was a rollercoaster BUT I was ecstatic driving on the road and thinking, "Did I hear that right? Xavier is up 20 points in first half on St. Joe's?.."
Oh the run was exciting but I never thought of entering UDump. I drove to Atlanta for 2 games. So exciting.

2003's best year ever was so stacked and talented BUT the former National Champions had other ideas. No fun drive home from Nashville....

And then you drove off the road when you heard Xavier was up 37.
