Go to the front page of the times. And it is in the video section. Pete, calls us sleepers and says a run to the Sweet 16 - I say National Champions :)
Nice to get some national credit.

Ring out Ahoya!!!
A rare positive word on MU since our late season lapse. On ESPN radio in Chicago yesterday they said that if Marquette was a horse they'd shoot it.
Granted it was sports radio so hyperbole is commonplace, but it does demonstrate what seems to be the perception out there that MU has completely flopped, even when they mention who MU lost to. Anyway, I think a little us against the world mentality could be good right now for the team. They have to be very hungry after the recent heartbreaks, so I'm hoping they come out firing on Friday.
Frankly, you can see the point of view of both sides...those that feel we will do when and those who won't.
If I were Mizzou, I would not be happy about the potential second round match-up though.

That was Jurko who said that, a dumb ass, fat, washed up ex-football player who knows nothing about college basketball ;D
In listening to the show on and off for years, its not an exaggeration to know that Jirko knows nothing about college basketball. I doubt he watches any games unless he absolutely needs to for his show.

Isn't Jurko on the same show where Harry and him decided it would be a great idea to be jockeys on race horses? I think Harry fell off and went to the hospital. Can't decide who should have been shot: Harry for his stupidity in thinking a fat man with no training could safely be a jockey or the poor horse he had to ride to put it out of its misery.
