The Enduring Allure Of Pickup Basketball
Mar 27, 2024 - 2:37 PM - by Swampy Meadows
Swampy Meadows's Avatar BEVERLY HILLS (MI) – The beauty of basketball is in its accessibility and simplicity. All you really need is a ball and a basket. If you are by yourself, you can just shoot; if there are two of you, play one-on-one; three and a game of 21 is in order; four or more and now you’re talking some pickup hoops.

My passion.

I have covered the subject of pickup basketball on numerous occasions in my 20+ years posting here at UDPride.com. Here are those... [Read More]

Ride Or Die
Mar 21, 2024 - 10:01 PM - by Swampy Meadows
Swampy Meadows's Avatar BEVERLY HILLS (MI) – In 2004 when his Boston Red Sox team was down 3-0 to the hated New York Yankees, the eminent philosopher David “Big Papi” Ortiz summed up his squad’s situation thusly:

“You either ride or you die.”

By comparison, your Dayton Flyers were down to Nevada by a mere 17 points with only 7 ½ minutes remaining. To put that in perspective, UD’s win probability was 1.5%:

Grant Gives the Mick in 91-86 OT Thriller Over VCU
Mar 09, 2024 - 2:20 PM - by Chris R
Chris R's Avatar “It was just toughness and grittiness. They weren’t gonna be denied tonight….the sum becoming greater than the individual parts – that’s teamwork.”

That was UD head coach Anthony Grant’s observation in the post-game press conference following Dayton’s blood-tingling and electrifying 91-86 overtime victory over VCU on Friday night, securing UD’s second undefeated home season in four years. In a moment that defined the unpredictable rollercoaster of the 2023-24 season and... [Read More]

Upon Further Review
Feb 28, 2024 - 11:11 AM - by Swampy Meadows
Swampy Meadows's Avatar BEVERLY HILLS (MI) – “FTS” has a habit that is probably shared with many of the Flyer Faithful: rewatching the UD game to see what you missed the first time thru. Here’s what I noticed:

– Having Enoch Cheeks and Nate Santos power driving to the basket will always be a good thing for the Red and Chapel Blue.

– If nothing else, getting T'd up a few times has cured Koby Brea of his habit of woofing at opposing players or pointing to their bench. Brea had 5... [Read More]
