Sit Lipsey and Gilbert the rest of the tourney. At this point I want us to lose to BYU so we can rest.
Damn. I think this team could win without all the pieces. It’s not ideal, but they have the talent and ability. **** happens, great teams move on and adapt and overcome.

Meanwhile you want us to just lose a game. **** that.

I would have bet millions that the second week of 2000 was a Friday/Sunday thing. I remember listening to the end of the UCLA game in bed and I thought it was a Friday game. I remember watching the last 1/3 of the MSU game when I got to a buddy's house and I thought it was last Sunday afternoon game. Then went to work the next day and some non-sports fan said something about how great it was to have a big 10 team advance. She really was clue-less that I was even an ISU fan and I thought she was an airheaded thoughtless boob for saying that to me. Innocently though.

Moral of the story. Never trust your memory, I guess. Especially after 25 years.

Wait, its the late games in TJ era that scare me. That 10pm start in Boston was a disaster, we were missing layups. Then that late start in Provo last year. I think we want morning games now! Cause TJ makes em get up early I hear(daily habits)?

TJ actually adjusted and sleep trained them. Now the players just sleep as soon as he texts and wakes up when he thinks it. Start times are no longer an issue.

No way. That means it got over late at night. I vividly remember it ending in the afternoon. I could be crazy but it’d but a lot of someone else’s money that it was in the afternoon.
I got to laugh at something here. :D

Fran yesterday repeatedly saying Jackson is starting to give effort and playing like he wants to come back makes me wonder what information he was being feed by the staff.
Fran seemed to be dropping a lot of nuggets about the team yesterday.

Every game Fran has done he has mentioned "if he's back next year" in reference to Jefferson which makes me nervous. Possible he's just saying that because it's the nature of the game now, but I hope he doesn't know something...

That T on Jefferson was trash. Other players are allowed to verbally assault refs and nothing happens.

“We’re just gonna keep that on the floor,” said Jefferson, who shined from start to finish with 19 points, eight rebounds, five assists and three steals.​
"I wasn’t surprised,” he said.​

Jefferson seems to think he deserved it base on the quotes....

It was at night.

Are you thinking of the bowl game vs. ND?
That is wild. I was on a temp job. It was March. It was 2013. Maybe I was following a BigXII tourney game?

EDIT: We played the 4/5 game in the BigXII tournament that year. I must be remembering that.
