SK in CV
Participant[quote=bearishgurl]
I think I might be one of these “loads” of people, eaves. I belonged to a local running club for many years in my younger days where we ran a lot of hills and also pavement in dtn SD. I went thru several pairs of shoes back then. I think I might have done this to my knees, esp my right knee, but never did anything about it (always had an HDHP).

ParticipantAs long as they like the new school better than the old school, it won’t be a problem. That might sound like a stupid obvious response, but I think preparation might be the most important part of a change like this.
My kids, both beyond college age now, both changed schools twice, once during elementary school (same district, different school) and once later, my daughter was in middle school, son entering his sophomore year in high school. All of the changes were made specifically for them, no move was involved in the first, and in the second we moved from the Poway school district to Carmel Valley specifically because of the schools.
We prepared them. They were unhappy where they were. We made sure their were groups for them to participate in before the move happened. And despite my skepticism, all the moves proved to be almost seamless and beneficial. Particularly the 2nd move. Of course there was some stress, but they adapted amazingly fast.

Participant[quote=sdrealtor]Rollie Massiminio is one of the most hated men in Big 5 history. He destroyed the Big 5, all its history and tradition for the sake of the NCAA Tournament. Each school used to play every other team twice a year (home and away). That is until Rollie decided he was taking too many losses because the games were always highly contested and it was hurting his seeding for the NCAA Tournament.[/quote]
Probably had a lot more to do with conference comittments than anything Rollie did. Villanova joined the Big East around 1980, and I think St.Joes, Temple and La Salle went to the Atlantic 10 about the same time. I really don’t remember it ever being a home and home thing, I thought a lot of the games were double headers at the Palestra. I know it kind of fizzled a few years before Rollie left in the early 90’s, but by then I’m quite sure it was a just single round robin. If thats when you’re talking about, it does make sense. They’re back to that single round robin now, have been for quite awhile. Rollie’s still coaching, btw, at a tiny little school in Florida.

Participant[quote=sdrealtor]If it is not to be I am fine as we have had many nice runs in the tournament in years gone by. Truthfully the Big 5 games in Philly are just as exciting as the NCAA tournament and I grew up going to them with my father.

There is a Big 5 connection with the Aztecs. Sixth man James Rahon went to Torrey Pines High School. His coach there, John Olive played at Nova, graduated in ’77, and later was Rollie Massimino’s assistant there. Might be a conflict if his Wildcats get past George Mason tomorrow, then somehow get past Ohio St. They could, though very unlikely, meet SDSU in the final four.
