The Enduring Allure Of Pickup Basketball |
Mar 27, 2024 - 2:37 PM - by Swampy Meadows

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]

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
|
“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 |

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.
