UD housing will close at 6 pm March 11. If you are approved for an extended stay or housing over spring break, you are permitted to stay.

I hope the NCAA and America as a whole is watching right now. Did you hear those chants? Did you hear those chants in support of the basketball team?

I sure did. Dayton has a legit shot at a national title, and it’s now at risk because of the coronavirus. If you think students are pissed right now, just wait to see what happens if this gets worse.

I stand in complete solidarity with these students at the University of Dayton. I couldn’t be more with them if I tried.

I know they’re not all rioting because of the basketball team, but PR 101 would suggest to make that the focus.

They should go wild if their shot at a title gets taken away. I would lose my damn mind.

The NCAA should use the actions of the Dayton students as a sign we won’t let March Madness get stolen away from us!

We won’t let it happen! You best believe that.
