Not ideal but ND should still be behind MU. Thankfully the committee isn’t made up of ESPN employees and ND loving sport writing bobos.

I do suspect Lunardi will move them ahead of MU.

And yep. OK State and ND now ahead of us in Lunardis up to the minute. Lol
I would take the Rick SLU program right now.

Everyone that we needed to lose early to get some breathing room has won.  At this point, I think MU definitely needs the Nova game.

Look, I still think all the teeth gnashing here over who's winning and losing that's on the bubble is ridiculous. Had MU simply beaten DePaul a week and a half ago, or Providence at home, none of this would even be a concern to us..If MU doesn't get in..it's only one teams fault..MU's. Frankly, I HATE even being in this position to begin with. It's like rooting for them to back door their way in.

I want this quote to serve as a reminder to the vast majority of scoop posters in regards to the MU BB program.

Despite that...MU also has a chance to play themselves into the field over the next 30 hours.

Yes , the Depaul loss would have got us to 10-9 and a better seed in the BE.  But, that’s been discussed numerous times and can’t do anything about it.  Just have to win tonight and beat Nova.  It can be done and if it doesn’t, then NIT.  It is what it is.  Enjoy the game tonight.

We R Final Four

Guru—-we get it. We didn’t beat DePaul the last time we played them. We lost. To DePaul. Nothing in the world is gonna to change that. Even you bringing it up dozens of times will not change that. We lost at DePaul.

There’s always some wild seeding choices and teams included. I fee the committee is a bit of a wild card at times. Only one bracket matters. For some reason I fee they may be underestimating our resume.

Granted, I’m an optimist.

You heard guru guys, no more talking about any other games and how they impact MU because we lost to Depaul. You've all been put on notice. Lock it up!

According to the guys on fs 1 pregame mu needs  2 maybe 3 more wins.......espn locks in ND at every chance they get and our network is adding extra wins to our required win total.......lol

Not totally bubble related, but Markus's brother is playing on ESPN3 right now against Lamar. Central Arkansas up 2 at the half.

Nothing is bad with backing their way in. Sign Brewers fans after the Fish beat the Mets years ago.  ;D

We barely beat Holy Cross and was taken to OT v Missouri but still made the Final Four.

Survive and advance.

Yeah, they hired the guy Chico wanted instead of Buzz.


Here we go again-the Chico’s derangement- let’s review-in 2008, when crean left,  we had a chance to hire an established coach for the first time.  Chico’s wanted Bennett, stallings and a few others.  Stallings won SEC coach of the year,in 2007 and again in 2010.  He was a national coach of the year and finalist as well as he had his teams,in top 25 routinely.  He may be down now-10 years later, but he would have been a coup to get considering we were constantly getting assistant coaches.  When buzz was hired, our top recruit and his high school coach as well said they didn’t trust buzz as many MU fans didn’t as well.  They didn’t know what we had.  The hire was initially a real head scratcher. 

  Lenny, as I stated earlier, you seem to like to poke at a guy who’s unable to defend himself now.  And you know, when you and others continue to assail the bailsbondsman, no one is going to challenge you guys cuz, well it’s chicos.  10 years ago stallings was an excellent coach and his hire would have been highly praised.  From 2007-2012, his teams won more than 20 games and finished as high as 7th in the AP poll. 
    As Chico’s left this board with a roast beef n cheddar in each hand 😋 I don’t think he was ever given enough credit for his good points.  💪👍👊💪
