Plenty of room on the exterior of the press box or on one of the outfield fences. Agreed that UofL should maybe put up a banner or plaque in Patterson for Mingo.

But he was instrumental in leading U of L to three NCAA appearances, including its first College World Series. Not suggesting a statue, just someway to honor him. As for Cal State Fullerton, you have to wonder whether they could have handled U of L's 2007 team, which probably put up better numbers in all categories than CSF has thus far. All good points, Paul.

Before you get mad, let's ask ourselves a few questions.Did he lead us to a final four or championship game? (Angel and Griff did)Has he had a successful career in the pros? (Grif did, Angel looks on track to do so and Johnny Unitas definitely did)Any Mingo statue building should be delayed until he's reached the lofty heights of the three mentioned above. Wes Unseld, Derek Smith, Sam Madison and Ray Buchannan deserve a little more than a banner, in my opinion. Here's hoping he has the type of baseball career in the pros that might bring this conversation up down the road.Cal State Fullerton proved that we're hardly a elite baseball program yet. Get to work, Dan. I’m going to take the opposite route here and say no statue for Mingo. Before you get mad, let’s ask ourselves a few questions.

Some of the biggest cheers ever released at Jim Patterson Stadium occired when you took one of those mighty swings and deposited a basebsll out in the left fiels berm.Here's wishing you a long and successful career in "the bigs" and Cardinal fans will long remember that infectious smile, dilligent guarding of the "hot corner" and massive swing.

There should be some way to honor him in the stadium in the meantime with a little creativity.
