I wanted to get this game thread started a little early to share one last reminder that GB is throwing a pregame meetup at State Street Pizza Pub prior to the UW-M game on Monday since registration closes soon (I believe tomorrow 2/2). Would be nice to see some fellow message board folks there! The event is free and starts at 4:30 and will include university updates from the chancellor, AD, and Dean of the business school plus free pizza and a cash bar. Here's the link to sign up and/or purchase tickets to sit in the Green Bay section for the game: host.nxt.blackbaud.com/registration-form/?formId=d47851e7-8648-4c05-a95b-5a8034c6aeaa&envId=p-cUM3yBC0Hk-m726lPe553g

I mean who could possibly pass up sharing a root beer with Josh Moon?! Not to mention the state of the art facility that uwm plays in that only enhances the fan experience!

I heard Moon is going to tell the audience who is on his short list...

Another stupid scheduling tactic. Why aren’t they playing this game on a Sunday with no football?
No wonder why this rivalry game doesn’t draw anymore. They schedule them on the worst possible days.
My condolences in advance to those of you going to this game especially those of you traveling two hours to witness a 25-30 point drubbing.
The highlight of my year would be to see a 3 win Phoenix team beat UWM. But I think it has about as much of a chance as no 12 playin for the Packers next year

I hope we’re healthier with Donovan, Zae, Brayden, and Garren able to play Monday but that’s a stretch but there are not many games left and Brayden Dailey has never played really Will Ryan said he was a great shooter but never got show it probably.

Brayden Dailey was heavily touted last year on this message board as a possible savior to our outside shooting woes this season.

Brayden hasn't been in uniform for a game since he was hurt at the end of the UWM game on 12/1/22.
You can't shoot when aren't healthy enough to play.
Why he didn't play before that is an unanswered question.

But I think it has about as much of a chance as no 12 playin for the Packers next year I suspect you are correct on both accounts - drifting off to another board - notice while there has been a lot of Rodgers commentary, the packer's org have been very silent. Given cap considerations for the 2024 and beyond, it is quite pricey to keep 12. Pricey to the point that it is not manageable. I suspect he will be traded mainly due to avoiding those future cap hits.

For what it’s worth, I have a friend who is a packer beat reporter for a national outlet and they still THINK he will be staying, despite the financial situation. On a lighter note, are any of you goofballs actually making the trip down tomorrow? I have nothing better to do so I might go for it, despite the Nix being the circus equivalent of the guy who bites the heads off of chickens.

UWM's poor showing against IUPUI on Thursday must have cost them pointspread points against us - early line has us getting only 17.5. They beat us by 14 in GB back on 12/1/22, and they're in the thick of it for conference lead. And unlike other teams, we have much less potential to make up ground when the opposing team is up big and puts in their subs.
Anyone remember when the Phoenix Dunkers Booster Club would organize buses to some of these away games? Does that group still exist? I see they have a Form 990 (tax form for non-profits) on the interweb that shows they issue some sort of $8,000 payment/grant for something each year.

I’ll be there at the pizza pub for the Green Bay event and then head to the game.
