never argue with idiots, they bring you down to their level and beat you with experience.

Worked for me. Another of the historic tragedies of NCAA sports history. I was young but remember the news - and the first time Evansville, Indiana ever hit my personal awareness radar.

This is truly a sad sad thing and I don't understand why it doesn't resonate in the national consciousness like the Marshall football plane crash years earlier.

Another sports tragedy that we should all remember, along with Marshall and Wichita State. They were all sad days for all of us, and especially for the communities involved.

Hard to believe that there have been this many plane wrecks with teams through the years:
