Since the end of Prohibition in 1969, Fort Collins has more than made up for the lost time, playing host to a selection of breweries and a multitude of homebrewers. JUNE 11, 1896 City council passes an ordinance outlawing the sale of liquor and after Frank Miller’s liquor license expires on June 11, 1896, and for 73 years, Fort Collins exists as a dry town.

  • BASKETBALL Head Coach James Johnson 2013-14 VIRGINIA TECH BASKETBALL
    2013-14 VIRGINIA TECH BASKETBALL Head Coach James Johnson 2013-14 VIRGINIA TECH BASKETBALL A MESSAGE TO TECH SUPPORTERS This is a very exciting time for the Virginia Tech men’s basketball team. We look forward to a season that will bring in new faces and new challenges. It should be a season of excitement and of improvement. The thing I have noticed about this group through the summer and the preseason is their willingness to work. I stated often last season that I never had to coach effort and this season, that same spirit has been evident since day one. This group of players shows up ready to do their best, regardless of whether it’s on the court, in the weight room or in the classroom. They are always ready to take a step forward. During the last year, we have made very substantial strides in shaping this program into a group that makes this University proud. We have become more involved in campus and community projects and have comported ourselves in a manner expected of Virginia Tech students and student-athletes. We strive to make this team YOUR team. It has meant so much to the team and me that you stop us on the street, in restaurants and out in public and greet us all so warmly. I believe this partnership has gotten off to a wonderful start and will only grow stronger. The season will begin on Nov. 9 and we will need each and every one of you in Cassell Coliseum, supporting this team.

  • Generating Relative Pick Value in the NBA Draft and Predicting Success from College Basketball
    Generating Relative Pick Value in the NBA Draft and Predicting Success from College Basketball A Major Qualifying Project Report: submitted to the faculty of the WORCESTER POLYTECHNIC INSTITUTE in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Bachelor of Science by ____________________ Michael Krebs ____________________ Jake Scheide Date: Approved: _______________________ Professor Craig Wills, Major Advisor MQP-CEW-1901 Abstract This project analyzes existing basketball player performance metrics, and generates new metrics providing context behind player statistics. Using these metrics, we create a chart quantifying the value of each pick in the NBA Draft. Finally, we create machine learning models that predict the likelihood of NBA success for NCAA student-athletes. i Acknowledgements We would like to thank Professor Wills for his encouragement of us to apply our technical backgrounds to our shared love for basketball. We would also like to thank the staff at basketball-reference.com, as their extensive database of college and NBA players made this project possible. We would finally like to thank Jimmy Johnson, Kevin Pelton, Dr. Aaron Barzilai, and the numerous other analysts who’s work informed our own, providing guidance and comparisons. We hope our work will make a meaningful contribution to the growing body of literature involving sports data mining. ii Table of Contents Abstract ...........................................................................................................................................

  • The Rage Page Volume XII Issue XIV the Official Newsletter of the Maize Rage 22 January 2011
    The Rage Page Volume XII Issue XIV The Official Newsletter of the Maize Rage 22 January 2011 If there is one team that the Wolverines can beat at home after a rough road trip, it is the nationally ranked Golden Gophers (stress the “o”) of Minnesota. The Wolverines have not lost to Tubby Smith’s team since February, 2008 when Michigan was struggling mightily through that distant 10-22 season. Since then, we have owned Minnesota both home and away and tonight is a chance to continue that dominance as they come in ranked #19. Coming off a close home victory against lowly Iowa, the Gophers (stress the “o” again) were our allies in Indianapolis last season as we watched and cheered them to the Big Ten Championship game.
