    Recruit Playoff Thread...

    I guess Remsen St. Mary's didn't have Jared Homan suiting up tonight..because Dykstra and Rock Valley beat them 96-24 in the district quarterfinals... Feel free to post how Staten, Barnes, and Paige do as playoffs roll on...or even the out of state kids we are going after for that matter.

    Ready to Eat a Little Crow...

    I've ripped on Frank Martin about as much as anyone...but I'll say this for the guy, his teams play hard....and he holds players accountable for their careless mistakes...I'm not ready to declare the guy John Wooden quite yet, but I don't think Kansas State had any business going into Austin or...

    Production from upperclassmen...

    This is the percentage of each team's ppg coming from upperclassmen (juniors and seniors), using only upperclassmen off of the top 8 players list cybsball20 was so kind to provide... If you believe losing Jacy Holloway has the same impact on a team as losing Dedric Willoughby (they both played...

    Do you realize...

    Baylor is a phantom call at the end of regulation against Oklahoma State away from being 2-6 in conference right now, despite having quite possibly the best backcourt in the conference in Curtis Jerrells, Henry Dugat, and LaceDarius Dunn...not to mention Kevin Rodgers and Quincy Acy down...

    "MVC Style of Play"

    I continue to hear people say, "this MVC style of play doesn't work in the Big 12"...then site people like Dana Altman, and his time at Kansas State, or Barry Collier (out of the Horizon League) and his time at Nebraska (not MVC, but mid-major), and so on, and so on... Do people really think...

    A Fourth Postseason Basketball Tourney...

    Unbelievable...what a joke this is becoming...it's becoming more and more clear every passing year that all the $$NCAA$$ cares about is $$...they're too busy dotting the I's and crossing the t's to get postseason tourney's like this and added bowl games, to have any time to look into actual...

    What I Don't Understand...

    Everyone knows I've been a big McDermott supporter, and I still don't think we should be firing the guy, but... Players have got to be held accountable...if a guy takes a bad shot, makes a careless turnover, or doesn't box out...chew his *** out, or bench him, or both. The same players make...

    Proof that winning is ALL that matters...

    Three programs...three different situations. The first program has a modest history, with peaks and valley's, but is fairly well respected around the college basketball world...the program is going through a real lull, with a coach that has yet to win in his third season...he handles himself...

    NFL Draft Coverage

    ...is anyone else dreading listening to Mel Kiper explain who the top 15 offensive tackles in college football are for the next few months? Seriously, why is there SOO much coverage for the NFL Draft...I don't care if the Jets are leaning towards taking a Left Guard from Southwestern Louisiana...

    Tim Floyd's Big 12 Standings...

    I always thought Tim Floyd had an interesting strategy for judging conference success...it's more truthful than a team playing two home patsies and going 2-0, and having a better record than a team playing two tough road opponents and being 0-2...the point system went as followed...+1 point for...

    Mercer...

    Don't be fooled by the name...Mercer will be our toughest home opponent yet. They have road wins at Auburn and Alabama already, and took Georgia Tech to overtime. They also won at USC last season...hopefully there will be a decent crowd for this one.

    All-Time Favorite ISU Victories...

    My old high school baseball coach used to tell us that "only losers live in the past", but what the heck...it's fun...your all-time favorite ISU victories that you have watched, regardless of whether they were sweet 16 battles, or a friday evening win over IUPUI, and regardless of era...I'll...

    The Weakness of This Team...

    ...is physical and mental toughness...part of that is because of our youth, and part is our strength... In every game we've played this year other than UNI, we have built a 10+ point lead early...and in every single one of those games instead of putting the team away, we have let them back...
