  1. Honestly Geography is the reason. We have the resources, we have the fan base, we have the tradition, we have the facilities, we have a recruiting-centric staff, we have the stadiun, we have the conference and we have the history.

    We are just smack dab in the middle of the country which is worlds away for some kids and that also makes it a much harder to set up relationships. We have a small fenced in backyard to play in compared to the Disney Land of recruiting a school in California, Ohio, Florida or Texas has.

    It's not impossible by any means. It's just a big hurdle.

    I get tired of this argument...explain to me why KU basketball is a powerhouse year after year? Let me tell you that Lawrence KS is no better that Lincoln NE. The reason kids go there is because they are an elite program and they challenge for championships year in and year out. If we made ourselves elite by winning the big games and opening up the wallet for some top their coaches we would be reeling in the blue chippers on a regular basis (coaches and players), I guarantee that. I understand basketball is different than football and a kid can go 1 and done in hoops on the way to the pros, but you get the idea. I agree we have to be more aggressive and innovative in recruiting but the bottom line is, we need to start winning prime time games to get good players here.
  2. Is this a trick question?

     

     

    They have better players, better coaches and the university has done everything in their power to make the program successful....this isn't rocket science.

     

    IF NU ever wants to be elite again, the bean counters need to open their purses and pony up some money for a quality staff. What do you expect from a life time .500 coach at the tail end of his career?

     

    You can't win championships with a budget staff; we'll always be a middle of the road program, just accept it and move on with life.

     

    enjoy the games with your friends, have some fun, root for the team, but don't expect to be nationally relevant any time soon.

     

    C'mon. This has been discussed ad nauseam

  3. I am "got wasted the night before guy who insists on drinking first thing in the morning on game day only to pass out for a few hours but some how wakes up to rally by downing a large Caseys breakfast pizza (bacon of course) a few rockstar energy drinks and shows up to the tailgate kind of disheveled but still presentable only to get a few more drinks in me before heading into the game...guy"
