and so the best regular season in Dayton Flyer History ends as A-10 Tourney cancelled and as NCAA cancelled. 29-2 record. The 2 losses in Tourney Championships in Overtime. In Chicago Dayton taking Colorado into Overtime. In Maui Dayton taking Kansas into Overtime. No losses in Regulation. No losses in scheduled road games on other teams home court. No losses at home in UD Arena. Dayton won every Atlantic 10 game.
So with no A-10 Tourney the season ends with Dayton #1 in the Atlantic 10
With no NCAA Tourney the season ends with Dayton either #3 in Nation of #2 in Nation, either is pretty good.
This is not a complaint by any means, nor should it be. The USA & The World are faced with a problem much bigger than basketball. I think back on Great Grandparents, Grandparents, Parents who lived through The Great Depression going into World War II, and add in Dust Bowl and small pox quarantines of Families and Houses. Our ancestors were tough, and we must reach down into our guts and find that same toughness in the weeks, months and year of 2020 ahead . The toughness that sports is suppose to teach us in other aspects of life. So this is not a complaint. This is just an ending to many posts this season about THE DAYTON FLYERS great season now coming to an end. A Salute to their Great Season.
GO UD, LET'S GO UD. LET'S GO FLYERS......THANKS FOR THE GREAT SEASON.
With a name Kelly and a UD Fan, I will quote President Kennedy of when I was in 2nd & 3rd grade of 1962 & 1963, our house next to UD, my school Holy Angels next to UD. A quote that is just as true today in the days ahead.
President Kennedy - " And so my fellow Americans : Ask not what your Country can do for You - Ask what You can do for your Country. My fellow citizens of the World : Ask not what America will do for You, but what together We can do for the Freedom of Man. Finally, whether you are citizens of America or citizens of the World. Ask of Us here the Same High standards of Strength and Sacrifice which we ask of you. With a good conscience our only sure reward. With History the final judge of Our deeds. Let US Go FORTH, Leading the Land WE Love. Asking GODS Blessing, and GODS help, but knowing that Here On Earth, GODS WORK, Must Truly Be OUR Own. "
and President Franklin Roosevelt in The Great Depression and World War II, who said, " WE have nothing to Fear, but Fear itself "
" So Let US Go Forth ".....No NCAA Tourney, OK, but we have bigger problems than that. Let US find the Strength OUR elders had.
Dayton had a Great Season. They deserved one last post by me.....Let us go forward.....Or as Jimmy Cagney says as George M Cohan in Yankee Doodle Dandy when World War I breaks out, " And here I was worried about a Broadway Show ".
