[Back In The Saddle]

So here's a question for you...why has Welmer consistently been shut out of the final four? Is it a conflict with Hank Nichols? If so, it'll be interesting to see what happens next year. But, as I understand it, Hank forwards a list on to the tournament committee who have "final say."

Then again, Hank hasn't been the supervisor for 28 years (assuming Rich's number is correct), has he? So maybe he made somebody very angry farther back and higher up? It makes for some entertaining, but pointless speculation.
