Chapter 40: The True Spirit of the Golden Eagle

Marquette University has a slightly rushed schedule at the start of the new season.

The season started straight to a home back-to-back.

And Marquette University's back-to-back at the start of the new season was not the only one.

With a Nov. 23 game against Indiana University, a Nov. 24 game against Gonzaga University, and a Nov. 21 game against the University of Tennessee, Marquette University starts the season with five games in the week from 17 to 24.

And the last three of these five games are all away games, and the three opponents are all strong teams.

Indiana University is the No. 20 seed in the NCAA this season.

Marquette University has had a rough start to the season.

These three tough opponents are a matter for later, though.

In what is now the Bradley Center, before the game begins, there is a sea of joy.

Quite festive, nostalgic and harmonious.

The opponent of this game, Chicago State, is special, mainly the head coach of Chicago State University.

In addition, the team played a bit of a tough game in the last game, but the win was a good start.

In particular, the team's three new upstarts, Wade, Chen Xiao and Ron Howard, performed very well in the last game.

This has greatly increased the exposure of Marquette University in the United States, and they are also proud.

I haven't been noticed by the whole United States for many years.

In the current environment of 2001, although the spread of public opinion is still not exaggerated, there is already an Internet.

Television media and print media are also very developed, and although Marquette University is now gaining top exposure, there are also quite a few of them.

At the very least, the name of Marquette Mihawks, after the last game, spread more vigorously and more deservedly.

After 20 minutes of Chen Xiao's last game, everyone who saw Chen Xiao's data from the newspaper or other media would suddenly feel stunned.

"Oh, it turns out that this Chinese in Marquette Mitaka is not a mascot who makes up the numbers, he also has good strength, Marquette Mitaka is really three eagles, not two eagles!"

Different groups have different opinions about the fact that Marquette Trihawk actually only has two eagles, and some people say that Ron Howard is the little golden eagle who disappeared because his exposure is relatively low.

And some people think that Chen Xiao is the little golden eagle that disappeared, and his strength is too good.

The two groups of people who have been controversial were almost five or five before, and now, the Ron Howard faction is gaining momentum!

If Marquette Mitaka must disappear one, then the one that disappears must be, Ron Howard!

In this regard, Ron Howard said, Brother Ro, I don't really care at all.

"Marquette University's outside offense is very strong, especially their two attacking guards, Wade and Chen, this game, we are not here to chase stars, and Wade and Chen can do it after the game, now, we want to win everyone's respect, we want to get back what belongs to us!"

"Teach, Coach!"

"What's the matter, say!"

"I, I also want to take a picture with Ron Howard after the game."

“……”

Chicago State head coach Bo Ellis was speechless about his team's group of junk disciples.

Is there any more pursuit?!

Because he was born in the most glorious Golden Eagle period of Marquette University, he was the second leader of the team when Marquette University won the championship in 1977.

After leaving Marquette University in 1998 as head coach at Chicago State University, he has been passing on the 'Golden Eagle Spirit' that worked wonders in the NCAA.

Iron-blooded, passionate, defensive, never admit defeat!

From 1998 to Chicago State University, it's just the fourth season.

All the players in the team were found and cultivated by himself, and there is no longer any remnant of the previous dynasty.

It stands to reason that as the inheritor of Marquette University's 'Golden Eagle Spirit', he has been on the trail of Chicago State University for so long, not to mention creating the 'Golden Eagle Miracle' of Marquette University like 1977, at least let people see some shadows of the Golden Eagle, right?

But look at these boys......

Bo-Ellis was speechless.

Ever since Marquette University decided to abandon the Golden Eagle spirit and try to bring in Tom Creane, who is contrary to the Golden Eagle spirit, as the head coach of the team, instead of letting him, the guardian of the Golden Eagle spirit, lead the team, he has simply chosen to leave.

He left before Tom Crane arrived.

He didn't allow his Golden Eagle spirit to be ruined by Tom Creon.

"The legacy of the Golden Eagle spirit, once proud of Marquette University, is now at Chicago State University!"

"Sooner or later, I'll come back from a counterattack!"

It was his vow when he was the head coach of Chicago State University.

Four years have passed.

10 wins, 18 losses......

5 wins, 23 losses......

3 wins, 24 losses......

That's his record in his first three seasons at Chicago State.

This record made him very depressed, and the more he instilled the 'Golden Eagle spirit' in the team, the worse the team's record became.

He left Marquette University to prove that the decline of Marquette University in the past 20 years has nothing to do with the spirit of the Golden Eagle.

The school leaders threw the pot to the Golden Eagle Spirit, which was a premeditated and prepared surprise attack, and this was a behavior of throwing the pot without morality or morality.

But now, the things he did at Chicago State University not only did not justify the sacred Golden Eagle Spirit in his heart, but even indirectly proved that the Golden Eagle Spirit was not good.

He promoted the Golden Eagle spirit like a pyramid scheme at Chicago State University, and in the end he didn't let his players have an admiration for the Golden Eagle spirit and excitement about the counterattack on Marquette University.

Instead, it has led to a cult of the players for Marquette University and Marquette University players......

"I'm asking you to worship the Golden Eagle Spirit, not Marquette University!"

"Marquette University without the spirit of the Golden Eagle is not worth worshipping at all!"

"You yourself are the orthodox Golden Eagle!"

Looking at his disciples who were completely out of the game, Bo Ellis felt his heart hurt, very, very painful.

Obviously, everything he did was learned from the godfather of the 'Golden Eagle Spirit', his mentor, the legendary head coach of Marquette University, Al McGuire, why is the result so different?

"Could it be that the eagle is born in the west of the lake as an eagle, and the eagle is born in Hunan as a chicken?"

Bo Ellis felt like he was going to doubt his life.

Chicago State University players have been paying attention to Marquette University, and Chen Xiao and Marquette University players are actually following Chicago State University as well.

Chicago State University is a very special rival for Marquette University.

Because Chicago State coach Bo Ellis has been out saying things like: "The current Marquette University is a pseudo-Golden Eagle, and the Golden Eagle orthodoxy is in Chicago State."

If someone else says something like that, you don't have to take it seriously.

In any case, the Golden Eagle spirit is the hallmark of Marquette University, and who can take it away?

But there are three people in this world that can be deprived.

One is the legendary head coach of Marquette University, McGuire, who is the creator of the Golden Eagle spirit.

The other two were the two leaders of the team at the time, Butch Lee and Bo Ellis, who were the ones who actually played the 'Golden Eagle Spirit'.

So, when others say this, Marquette University's current player coach can be a 'poof'.

But the man said, it was different.

Even in the last two years, many Marquette University fans themselves have thought so.

Tom Creon has been so stressed in the past two years, and a large part of the reason is because of Bo Ellis's statement, which has turned a large number of his own people back at Marquette University.

If it weren't for the Alaska Challenge, Bradley Center would be all about Bo Ellis.

Even now, it's half and half.

This shows how marketable Bo Ellis's words are.

"After two years with Mr. Crane, this is the first time I've heard him say something like that before a race."

What words? Yes, of course......

"I'll fight as hard as I can in this game!"

Chen Xiao looked at Wade and then at Tom Creon next to him.

Chen Xiao has always felt that Tom Creon is a very gentle, very good and very good person.

He also felt that this statement did not match Tom Creon's character.

But he did say so before the game.

"So, how much Coach Crane hates this Marquette legend......"

Chen Xiao now has a feeling that the team's two big centers were caught as typical rectifications this morning, probably because they are going to play Chicago State University tonight!

How ruthless, how hard to fight!

Recalling the expression on head coach Tom Creane's face when he said this sentence in the locker room before, Chen Xiao subconsciously shuddered.

"This morning, Coach Creon was making an example!"

Whoever drags him back tonight, hehe, hehehe......

Here's the problem.

How ruthless is that the coach thinks of him?

It's a difficult task.

It's no wonder that after tonight's start, Dina was not disappointed, but felt relieved.

"This little clever ghost!"

After Tom Creon warmed up, after a short arrangement, Chen Xiao and other starters re-stepped onto the court under the leadership of Wade.

The starting line-up for this match at Marquette University is Chen Xiao, Wade, Ron Howard, Ennamarca and Scott Merritt.

"Chen, although Chicago State University's results last season were not good, and the team's strength was very average, but this game is different, this is a game related to the 'Golden Eagle orthodoxy', you must be careful."

After walking on the court, Ron Howard reminded Chen Xiao cautiously.

Golden Eagle Orthodoxy......

Although Chen Xiao didn't know what the Golden Eagle Spirit was, he knew that the battle for orthodoxy had always been cruel.

The battle for orthodoxy in history has been bloodied and bloody.

In sports, that's the most brutal derby.

Marquette University and Chicago State University should be a derby battle for the 'Golden Eagle Spirit'.

"So, don't think that you have improved a lot, just underestimate the enemy, this game is not easy to play."

Although Wade's voice was still so stinky, this time Chen Xiao still nodded.

Well, this game should be very difficult to play.

In this kind of orthodox game, if the opponent does not give 200% of the combat power, he is sorry for the words 'Golden Eagle Spirit'!

Such a difficult opponent, and to play the 'ruthlessness' in the heart of the head coach, this task is indeed hell.

But......

Only under such a difficult situation can I once again test my true strength!

After a little contemplation, Chen Xiao became excited again.

ps: Guess what the score of the two sides is in this 'Golden Eagle Spirit' battle in history, and whether it has reached the 'ruthlessness' required by Coach Tom Creon.

ps: Ask for recommendations, ask for collections, ask for one-click triple !!
