You mean Clo that nearly got SIU to the elite 8 wasn’t qualified.  And who in the world has to forgive a college coach for failing.  What color is the sky in your worlds?

  Inspite of.  Not because of.  And if you want that again, what color is your sky?

 

I'm not sayin' -- I'm just sayin'!

Part 2 should be available soon. 

Supporter of the Fab 4: Scottie Ebube, Foster Wonders, AJ Ferguson & Cade Hornecker.

They’re the ones that can get us where we haven’t been in 15 years.

In Part 1, Reis mentions being mad at SIU after the 2021-22 year. I wonder what that was about.

Thanks everyone for all of the comments here. They are much appreciated-whether you've listened 44 years or 44 minutes. It's cool to see comments from people who remember certain moments or how they listened. I haven't seen any references to listening to the Salukis' 0-16 1981 MVC season, though! Lol...and that's just as well. Your comments are humbling, too. Learfield will begin advertising the job for the next person soon. From what I've been told of it, they will get a great group of candidates to pick from. They are keeping it a good job. It is important to me that Saluki Radio continue as good product and I'm confident it will. Thanks, again. Sincerely, Mike Reis

@jabman62 There wasn't just one before as a couple of stations did them. I was one of 3 or 4 when I started in 1978-79.

@risaluki Yes, Criswell did them for WSIU. Ron Hines did them for WJPF and for one year at WCIL and I did color with him as a student at CIL. Dale Adkins did them for WINI. Mackie Nichols did them for WEBQ. We didn't have the rights in 1988-89 at CIL and Mackie and Mike Murphy did them for WEBQ-FM.

Aa good as play by play man as there is in the business and Mike will be sorely missed I always appreciated his interviews whether pregame post game they were always on target always fair and for the most part not sugar coated or trying to be home cooking positive
