I was just talking about the old womens teams and the field house this morning. The person I was talking to said the best basketball game they ever saw was when ODU beat Purdue in the NCAA Sweet Sixeteen in the field house. That may be the loudest ODU game I was ever at too. Reputations are hard to break, and nationally, many still think we have a great womens hoops program. Sadly, we don't.

You can tell we are a women's basketball team by seeing how many more fans they draw than the men's team... oh wait.

Most definitely NOT a women's basketball school. Back in the Dark Ages, yeah, because we did things on a national scale that drew attention to us when few were paying attention. This days are so far gone it's laughable to make such a statement.

Not since Beth Anders retired.

We're actually a sailing school.

Dang, I almost said sailing too. Hey, it seems like Golf and Lacrosse are trending upwards too

I think I saw something on twitter a few years back where an Ohio Dominican student tweeted that they're the "real ODU".
