Dave Armstrong on 810....

[Rage Against the McKee]

Man. This year could be the meltdowniest BB year in a while.  Could be worth a few more losses.

wasn't last year about this time the meltdowniest?  seems like it should have been. 

After the @CU loss, sys was saying we were NIT bound IIRC. We were 1-4 and 4-6 after starting the season in the top 5. Although it feels a little more meltdowny this year. Not sure why. Probably because ksu_FAN is no longer a Frankite and he was pretty good at talking people off the ledge.

hmmm, yeah, probably.  the excellent non-con and MU win set this year's meltdown up nicely as well. 

yeah, the Duke loss to UF blowout to the suspension UNLV loss right before Christmas kind of gave us a nice, slow decline last year. This year we went from beating two undefeated top 5 teams and being league champs if Frank wasn't a respect to getting blown out by the worst team in the league in 7 days.

Not that I’m any gage, but I believe last year I melted down after the Loyola-Ch. game.  This year it took me to the 10 minute mark of our first game.

The expectations and rankings must have tempered you last year, then. This team looked much better throughout the noncon than last year's team.

I'll make a deal. If we lose at home to Texas on Wednesday ill go full Fake Sugar Dick (WARNING, NOT THE REAL SUGAR DICK!) with BigWillie. How's that sound?

I think you are misinterpreting the thread.  not making a case on why we should melt down, but only why some will/have.

Point of order: Tech is the worst team in the league.

it's early(it's only mid January).  may be splitting hairs here.

Like when you were twitter spamming everyone, I won't know the difference.

Duly noted, kougs. Good to know we were on track to win the league, though.

so what did Dave Armstrong say?

I'm pretty confident with the Tech assumption.

Meh, I'm still a Frankite. And I'll defend Frank plenty this season before its over.

I will admit Hawaii/Missouri probably heightened my expectations for the team/Frank to unreasonable levels and I need to move on from that.

[michigancat]

dammit, I was hoping FAN wouldn't see that and I could avoid an ed/MiR scenario.

[MakeItRain]

ed

Very effective way to keep name out of mouth, bravo

[Fuktard]

Armstrong said that Frank has his way of doing things and that's not going to change and he agrees with how he does it.  Was asked "yeah but it looks like he sacrificed a league game just to make a point, which ay cost him a chance to win the league"  Dave answered with we won't have a chance to win the league anyway if everyones not on the same page and everyone clearly is not on the same page or palyers wouldn't be running stairs for 2 hours the day before a game.  Said Frank will get control of this team and it will be better for it....can't win without everyone pulling together.  It was actually a very good interview and Dave brought up some good points to reinforce why Frank was being Frank...much to the chagrin of St John of whoever the hell was doing the interview.

i remember that.  you posted that we still could make the tourney and i was like - it's wonderful that you still believe that little michigancat :patsmichigancatonhead:


the run after the cu loss was just incredible.  i know kstate fans appreciate it, but i don't think we appreciate it enough.

I had given up all hope after that CU loss, all hope. That run afterwards cemented Pullens place in my heart

It's become the expectation: start conf weak, then run hard until we are a bubble team that can inexplicable lose to ISU at home in March and nervously sit around until Selection Sunday finally gets here and we find out if we will be playing next week at OOD in the NIT, or heading to the local NCAA regional.

the 3 times under Frank we've been in we've been in solidly.  his first year was the closest we came to not making it and i really had no doubt that Beasley / Walker.  we would have been really close in 09 with a field of 68.

some guy on kstatefans or maybe phog.net referred to wooldridge as mcneck (a couple of days ago).  it really made me mad.
