DePaul and Lakers legend George Mikan dies

As regular readers of Marathon Pundit know, I've been blogging about the (lack of) free speech mess at DePaul for three months now.

But there is some sad news for the DePaul community, as George Mikan has passed away. George was the first dominating big man in basketball, and he, I guess, "inspired" the college goaltending rule. Mikan later moved on to the NBA, where he led the Minneapolis (yes, that's right, Minneapolis) Lakers to five NBA championships.
