2016-2017 kstate noncon sos

[MakeItRain]

Some people get completely obsessed by the theoretical "tuck", it's very interesting

It's frustrating because you can't have a basketball conversation on here without someone interjecting it into the conversation as if it's something tangible.

[sys]

up to 334th.  utah joins rutgers and tech on the list of major conf teams with a lower rated sos.

[sys]

improved to 327th following slu.  enjoy it while you can, the schedulemakers have done our sos no favors with the next game.

[pissclams]

will pv a&m overlook us as they prep for their match up against tsu?
we can only hope

[sys]

the bad news is that it's down to 338th.  the good news is that this is as bad as it gets.  a new dawn is rising over oppys in the 100s and 200s.

[pissclams]

205 washington state in the sprint center followed by the 128 mike from fort collins's.  we then wrap up this pos non con with 220 gardner webb.


then BRING ON THE LONGHORNS

I have been calling for oscar's noggin' since the Kentucky loss.  After all this time, I'm of the mind to demand why anyone who wants to fire him now, when they had sufficient reason for the 3 years previous to do the same, can justify it now?

We weren't rebuilding when he was hired - we were pretty decent.

He ran what we had into the ground, then when he lucked upon some talent, he ran THAT off.

So why not just leave oscar be?

[catastrophe]

Announcer during Texas-Michigan game "kudos for the teams scheduling this game, Texas could be playing Prairieview A&M right now."

Uh, no they couldn't be, because KSU literally just played them, dumbass.

As I sit watching Xavier play at Colorado, I'm reminded that guys like Chris Mack aren't afraid to play anyone, anywhere and it seems to work for him. Xavier lost, but the growth a team gets from these kinds of games, assuming their coach is actually viewed as a legitimate leader and not a play hard chart kind of bad person, is more important than slaughtering another member of the SWAC.

The one way I contend oscar is just like Wooldridge is the fact that his players don't view him as a legitimate leader. If that is the dynamic, then there is no chance to get back to where we were that short time ago when we played basketball with marbles.

NIT birth keeps oscar around, I'm of that mindset.

welp, i was wrong.  down to 345th.  for the first time all year, afaik, tech moves ahead of us to 343rd.

This is just the absolute shittiest collection of teams I can remember us playing. Every game I think to myself, "My god, that's the worst basketball team I've ever seen." But then the next game I think the same thing. Nothing about this non-con has been fun in the least.

Yea, it's been super hard to GAF about basketball this year. Hoping that changes at conference play

It will be super hard to GAF about basketball during conference play when the BruceCats are getting their asses handed to them every game

They won't. The Big XII isn't good this year.

[Clevey 2 Times]

They won't. The Big XII isn't good this year.

Yea, the Big 12 is just gross, no talent pussies. amiriteguys?

Only 5 of the top 39 NBA prospects for the '17 draft and the likely #1 pick:

Plus, totally gross and disgusting coaches that hardly belong at this level. I'm looking at one in particular, the world's greatest and cleanest basketball coach if only America were great again he'd find success on the prairie, but the liberal schedule makers and cheating ass bastards at other schools, like the Chinese, are preventing greatness.

if there was online voice change software that i could run that through, i might listen just to hear him try to defend and excuse the schedule.  or blame it on someone else.  but in lieu of that, i just can't listen.

[sys]

cats up to 338th.  lmao @ tech with the 343rd hardest schedule in college bball.

As gottlieb pointed out yesterday, it's absurd to differentiate a win against a team ranked between 100-370whatever as being better than another.

That wasn't his point at all, there is a gigantic difference between beating a team separated by 250 places in the RPI.

No there isn't and the rpi is Fake Sugar Dick (WARNING, NOT THE REAL SUGAR DICK!).

I never felt that this schedule was to help us get in the NCAA, but rather to help us get into the NIT.  When we end the year with 18/19 wins, we will probably get in the NIT, and then oscar's trajectory is suddenly pointing up.

I fully believe if we get in the NIT, oscar is here another year easily.

Yes, I believe this is absolutely true. Sadly.

The windows for the NIT is so small after they added additional auto bids. Any logic built around the NIT is just silly.
