Since playing Bucknell

[canepain]

I live in Lewisburg Pa. home of the Bucknell Bison, visiting your board in 2012 after the game I was surprised buy the show of class and honest appreciation for the game of basketball, and for that reason have kept an eye on Purdue basketball. I've watched two of your games this year and really believe this team could make a serious run should some things fall their way.
In any event was hoping to see them play vs the nitters at UPS but don't see a game scheduled there this season. That leaves me going to MD. or perhaps in the eastern regionals (should they play there).
Good luck

What happened to the Bucknell center who played in that game? Can't believe I don't remember his name. Assume he graduated by now. Is he on an NBA roster and if not, where is he now?

Mike Muscala was the center and he is playing for the Atlanta hawks. Solid reserve player from what I see.

Dear Lord. I just looked at the box score of that game. Sometimes it is easy to forget how far this team has come in the past 3 years. Leading scorer for Purdue was Donnie Hale. Let that one sink in for a moment.. TJ was out with an ankle injury. And Ray and AJ were clueless freshmen starting their first ever collegiate game.

bustagator7 is correct about Mike he had played in Europe shortly in order to develop his game.

Really hope to see your team at MD., that should be a great game, good luck this season & if any of you see a short frumpy yet extremely good looking guy wearing an orange & blue BUCKNELL shirt w/ Bucknell has danced the BIG dance-- "just ask Kansas" cheering for Purdue put money on it being me.
