[benman82]

Main points were about the coaching situation and how young his team is.

Farm bureau insurance. Hey, is my premium money going there?

They should have Dale Brown be the Interim Coach for the Tournament!

Barry Alvarez will probably be available and in town.

Please just not Bob Stoops.

I’m not sure if he was saying that to make the fans feel better about their chances, or himself

Maybe Kim Mulkey will help the LSU men's team in the tourney....

I'm curious how much the departure of 2 coaches will have. Certainly would impact scouting being short 2 bodies, however I'd expect that to be more of an impact with a short turnaround (round 2, 2 days to prepare) than game 1 (5 days to scout us).

Certainly has to have some of these kids with 1 foot out the door I'd imagine.

Don't give them any ideas.

It’s the NCAA tournament. Will Wade was a great recruiter, not a great coach. I don’t expect a drop-off from them and I don’t like the matchup. It’s going to be a battle of physicality and defense and we need to take care of the basketball. They’ll kill us with points off turnovers and offensive putbacks if we let them.

Yeah that is the aspect that worries me the most. This team has a tendency to make stupid passes and that is how they score most of their points is in transition off of steals. Don't turn the ball over and ISU can win.

I disagree that Coach Wade wasn’t a great coach. He was. His dismissal wasn’t over poor coaching..

The question is, are they a BETTER version of ISU (like Tech) or are they a WORSE version (who we could beat) ??
