knapplc Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 Sagarin's current rankings have some good news and some bad news for the Men's BB team. The Bad News - we're ranked 120th in the nation. That's what? Bottom of the NIT pack at best? Are we even projected to make the NIT this year? The Good News - we've played the 11th-toughest schedule, and we're over .500 against that schedule. That's pretty small comfort considering we're not projected to win many (if any) of our remaining Big Ten games, but it's not... horrible. 1 Quote Link to comment
Jadler Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 People really do fail to realize how brutal that first half of the conference schedule was. The only game we were favored in during an 8 game stretch was the Penn State game. Quote Link to comment

darkhorse85 Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 I wouldn't say Penn State is just that bad. I would say the Big Ten is just that good of a basketball conference this year. Tim Frazier is a stud. Quote Link to comment

Minnesota_husker Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 The good is hopefully Doc gets fired. Quote Link to comment
bball_backer Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 Today on 1620 Jay Bilas said you don't fire Doc unless he fails to match the number of banners hanging in the gym before he got there.... Quote Link to comment
Gumbercules Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 Today on 1620 Jay Bilas said you don't fire Doc unless he fails to match the number of banners hanging in the gym before he got there.... OK. Well, Doc hasn't done that. So we can fire him. Quote Link to comment

OK. Well, Doc hasn't done that. So we can fire him. Yep before Doc. A Big 8 championship Tourney and a NIT Championship oh and we made the big dance before Doc as well Quote Link to comment
Count 'Bility Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 What the hell does Jay Bilas know about banners in our "ARENA" (we dont play in a "gym" like frickin dook). Bilas is the college basketball Mark may to me. Quote Link to comment

He also said he thought the same thing about Collier... I like Bilas and there's no way he's as bad as Mark May, but yeah, that was an incredibly stupid thing to say. Quote Link to comment

I knew we had a rough schedule, but had no idea it was that rough. We've played more top-25 teams than any of the other 345 ncaa teams. Quote Link to comment
darkhorse85 Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 It's simple. We offer Phil Jackson eleventy billion dollars to come here. Phil would in turn hire Dennis Rodman and The Worm would teach Diaz how to rebound. I don't know why TOm hasn't thought of this before. Quote Link to comment

Well sorry Jay, but we fired Nee, and he's the one who got us what little we have. There, I opened up the can of worms. Quote Link to comment
