Geez guys I was absolutely floored when I saw the news.
I'm sorry for you guys. The Big XII is the toughest basketball conference in the nation and if Webber couldn't continue the momentum that Bill Self started in Illinois in the Big 10, then I can't imagine Webber doing any better in the Big XII.
Believe me I know how bad it hurts to see your beloved program go down in flames like a bad train wreck you just have to sit and watch. My Oklahoma State Cowboys used to be a perennial Big Dance team and our AD (Holder) made a horrible hire (Travis Ford) and now we are having losing seasons - the first in nearly 25 years when we had Leonard Hamilton. Holder single handidly destroyed our program by making a horrible hire and sticking with him. It's as if the Sutton Era never existed.
You guys had a long drought and Huggy Bear / Martin got you guys back...at least right now Oklahoma, Oklahoma State, Texas Tech, and TCU still suck.
For me, the team I adopted was Iowa State. I think the Mayor is a smart guy that loves his alma mater and Hilton is back. I don't think you guys really have any kind of rivalry with the Cyclones do you?
I do like Rick Barnes too though and can't help rooting for Texas as well.
