I usually don't pile onto IU, but I'm disappointed with not getting to watch MU tonight, so this made me feel a little better.

And you thought it would end with banners..... ::)
If I'm not mistaken, I'm pretty sure Marquette got rings the past two years.
Hahahaha. This is classic. The side of the ring reads like a Crean banner would, "beat #1, #2, #5". Pathetic.

Saw this: "11HerbsNSpices:
Sweet 16 rings? You know what UK gets when they go to the Sweet 16....A new coach."
Lol
Yeah this is a classic "pot, meet kettle" post.
If you've been to a Buzz's BBQ either of the past two years, you've seen him hand out Sweet 16 rings to the guys.

If you google sweet sixteen rings, you will find even the big boys give out jewelry for making it to the second weekend.
Rings were given out in 94 as well.
big difference between giving them out at a bbq in the middle of summer and at the opening game of the season.
Of course, this is only I4's 2nd S16, so I can see where he is excited.
Holy overreactions, Batman. I didn't know MU did the same thing...must have missed that post when it happened. Life gets busy sometimes.
Pretty sure both the pot and the kettle are black -- save the rings and the banners for Final Fours and Championships.

Overreaction? Not really, I don't care at all. Just pointing it out.

When everyone here can just accept that he is who he is we can all get along much better.

That is a picture of our Sweet 16 ring from last year (we had them the year before as well) and clip of our Sweet 16 ring ceremony at Marquette when Buzz honored the players, staff (coaching and otherwise) with their rings.
