Patrick Behan is a 6-foot-8 senior on the Bucknell basketball team. He is also an English major and an aspiring sportswriter. As he did last season, he will be blogging for The Quad throughout this season.

"Welcome Back to Fishkill, Bucknell."

That should have been the sign hanging from the gas station located somewhere in New York. I refer to it as somewhere, because I have no idea where exactly the town of Fishkill is or what goes on there. I only know that our bus stops there at every trip we have up north.

At some point during my sophomore year, I thought to myself, "I feel like I have been here before." That's because I had ... many times. It's been the go-to spot for Bill the bus driver, that has not changed, despite a new season.
