I remember Fred Brown draining a 3 @ A&M.  It was pretty cool.

I remember that one year we thought maybe Frankuary wouldn't happen and then we won like back to back roadies against baylor and mizzou when they were top 10

sometimes I would get down and think maybe we wouldn't make the tournament and win at least one game but hen frank always did some amazing thing and it was always fun.

2012 frankuary was the most i've ever enjoyed college basketball.  i remember after the colorado loss coming on the board and lashing out at michigancat for insisting kstate could still make the tournament.  and then the frankencats won six straight to coast in with a five seed.

The fact you remember that in general(I have a fantastic memory) is grounds for an obsession on an unreasonable level

i found it.  2011, not 2012.  iirc, michigan had been doing a lot of look at you posts in the days prior.  incidentally, i had a lot of funny and contrarian posts back then.  i used to be a really good poster.

damn. is the difference between ncaa tourney and no ncaa tourney going to be .1 seconds?

No.

look at you, refusing to accept reality.

when he got blocked by that goofy-ass frosh that CU has. That was inexplicable.

a skinny, long seven-foot post blocking a skinny, long seven-foot post cannot be explained?

JHR should know how to embarrass a freshman who is presumably much less athletic than him. That's how I viewed it.

try looking at it how i just looked at it.

Yes.  I wrote hundreds of words after every game.  What the hell?

I never understood this or enjoyed it. For me, it was just about being in the tournament or not. And I always expected that we'd be in.

They took it away from us. They had the chance to revive it, but they mumped that up too.

that usc losing streak isn't as bad as it looks.  they've not played well, but a lot of it is just playing tougher teams.  they're still a solid kp30 team, just like kstate.  osu's run hasn't been quite as good as it sounds either, although you can't discount going from kp40 to kp20 this late in the season.

i was looking at martin's coaching record the other day.  it's almost amazing how consistent it actually is.  he most always (other than the first couple years at usc) puts a high 80s/low 90s defense on the floor.  in years where he doesn't have players he has a 106/107ish offense and has about a kp30 team.  in years where he has players the offense is more like 110/111ish and his teams make a little noise.
