I'm sick and tired of reading the media reports that this K-State team has underachieved. The problem is with their preseason rankings, not the play of this team. This team has gotten better as the season has gone on, each week the team has improved.
For you negative nancies who think that our season is a failure if we don't win tonight- BUG OFF. This season should be measured, at least by intelligent fans, by how much the team has improved over the course of it.
Strictly speaking, I'd much rather have a team I can be proud of as the season comes to a close and who played competitive hoops night in and night out, rather than a bunch of prima donnas who fight all season just to make the big dance and then lose to some crappy team like Wisconsin.
The tournament means nothing when you look at it in the perspective of the long term health of our program. For those of you that think the NCAA tournament means something, please go cheer for the Squawks. You'll find them 70 miles to the east working on yet another early exit from the tournament. Where has that gotten them over the past few years? No where, that's what I thought.
Screw the NCAA tournaent, just get better boys, our troph will be waiting for us soon enough.
