All you can do is flush this stinky turd, move on, and take it out on the Gophers...

OSU's talent disparity tonight was sobering....if they bring it at that level every time out, just hand them that ugly wooden slab of an NCAA trophy right now.

OSU's frosh played like 6th year seniors :shock:

MSU is 35 right now. At this point, they have to beat Wichita the final game of the year and their bracket buster as well. Good shot of getting in though.

I think Cuonzo gets a raise and sticks around this year. He's a Midwest guy, who loves the Big Ten. I don't see any real jobs he'd consider opening up that fits his criteria. I don't think he wants a job like Northwestern or Colorado type. I think he wants that next tier up. Who knows though. If he goes, MSU will be in good shape with Coach Rock taking over (Coach Harris looks like Chris Rock). He was a good player at Marquette, who has been an assistant for nine years now. This is his third year as top assistant with MSU. Trying to set up a lineage such as Gonzaga, Butler, SIU etc.

ICE, they don't normally draw 10k, no, but usually draw around 9k for Creighton games. ESPN games help. Afternoon games on Saturday help, and winning helps.

Supposedly they've sold over 10k for Sunday vs. UNI on ESPNU already. It might sell out as well. Since they hold tix for handicap etc. they actually were turning fans away after 10,665 on Saturday, in an arena that holds 11,000. They stated Arkansas as a sell out, and it only had 10,881. I think they can hit that 11,000 figure for a game, but might have some SRO.

Good Lord, Michigan won in East Lansing. So much for that big preseason ranking for State.

I'd love to see them get in. Wish Mike had stayed.

Sorry that Indy St. laid a turd against Evansville the other day. Definitely hurt your RPI along with ours.

Indiana State laid an egg yesterday against Creighton losing 83-69. Jake Odum had 22 and Dwayne Lathan had 16 for the Sycamores.

Purdue's radio announcers are a couple of crybabies.
