The Blue Demons are one of the storied programs in history. Ray Meyer was a legendary coach, with 724 wins. He took DePaul to two Final Four appearances, plus eight more Sweet Sixteens from 1942 to 1984. However, since his son Joey left in 1997 after taking them to two more Sweet Sixteens, they have been to the Dance exactly twice. Since then they have had only eight winning seasons. Probably a lot of high school kids today never heard of them. I would love to see them get things going again, but it may not happen any time soon.

Sadly the same can be said for Little Rock in terms of "it may not happen any time soon". We can only support the players and hope!!
