Return of a B1G Tournament banner to Crisler

Submitted by Wolverine Devotee on

It was taken away in 2002, both the trophy and the banner.

The one banner missing from Crisler was a B1G Tournament banner.

And now, we have one that will last FOREVER.

The 1998 Big Ten Tournament Championship game.

The late Robert Taylor was the MVP. Check out the run out dunk at 26:17

Seems very similar to the one DJ Wilson had to seal it today.

I remember the days of Traylor, Taylor and Baston. What fun they were. Just another instance when Michigan has a little too much success and talent, people will do whatever to hammer them down. I know they took money but comeon damnit. All of the programs players have taken money for years. The greatest school in the world will always have to follow the rules and the more righteous the championships will be anyway.

How many good football or basketball players have the Bucks had over the past 20 years and no one has ever went after them? You cant tell me that none of those inner city athletes have taken a dime. Besides the tatoo scandal, I'd bet there were a ton of incidents and the B1G and NCAA took it easy on them saying that we are going to nail you for this but this is your warning and a far lesser charge than what we actually have against you. Only because the Bucks have probably positioned people within each rung to ensure their success and plead for their pathetic existence. Snake bastards. We all know the OSU are cheaters. I doubt the tatoo thing was the tip of that iceberg.

when he was on, he was really f-ing on, to coin a phrase. 

What he did on the Purdue posession at 11:20 was remarkable.  He jumped up to contest Robinson's jumper in the lane, then jumped again (!) to secure the rebound.  Our current players don't think they're allowed to jump twice, and here's 320 pounds of man doing it. 

His combination of agility, skill, grace, and size were something to behold.
