As a husband, absolutely.  As a guy, yup.  We’ve had several guys run our program over the years that did same as him.

Who dumped a body at Autozone from the MU program?

Don't particularly care if you are convinced.  I was brought up to respect your opponents, if your opponents deserve respect.  They aren't cheating best I can tell.  They put together an incredible run, I tip my hat to them.  That doesn't mean I don't want to beat their brains in every single time we play them.  Not sure how you possibly cannot understand this?  Larry Bird and Magic wanted to beat each other every time, but they still respected them.  Get it?  Finally?

So which guy are you, Bird or Magic...?

Epic collapse by Maryland. Horrible defense. Wide open 3s.

Indiana loses at home to Nebraska 66_51. They look pretty bad. Must have played there best game against us

Wait...IU lost by 15 at Assembly Hall? How is that possible?

Pretty sure I heard Maryland went 10 minutes without a field goal.

Bucky is at #2 Michigan next on Saturday.

Big Blue is poised to be #1 next week with Duke's loss.

Incorrect.  The game is at the Kohl hole, would suck even more if they won because they would storm the court (although they would probably do that if UM was still only #2, it is their Super Bowl after all).

Edit: realized that UM will still only be 2 on Sat.  assuming they win that game, they'll be 1 the following Monday.  Bucky will still storm if they win.

My bad ...

Bucky is 3 - 5 since the MU game.

They have never recovered from that loss!

Kansas wins a close one over Texas. DoneDeal drops to 10-7 on the season.

MU82's call looking better with every one of their losses. It really does seem like we ended up with a much better fit with Wojo

Ahh, the classic "I'm going to be the bigger man (we have an alpha here, too!) and not talk about this topic anymore" only to jump at the first chance you get (it's been a while) to bring it up!

You're right though.  The true home court advantages like Hawaii would never lose at home by 17 to North Texas or anything!  LOL!

And that huge Denver home court advantage would never allow for them to lose to powerhouse Abeline Christian!  Or Northern Colorado by 16!  Or North Dakota by 21!  Or South Dakota!

Good stuff as always Lenny.  Denver and Hawaii, tougher places to win than IU as proven by IU losing tonight at home in the Big Ten.  Scientifically proven by Northern Colorado and North Texas.

LOL!

Full disclosure: I wanted Shaka, too, and I was bummed when Mrs. Shaka grabbed hubby's onions as if she were Davison and dragged him off to Texas.

But within a day of Shaka spurning us (probably less), I was ready to move on. And given all of the other retreads and/or short-timers whose names were bandied about, I was happy after we got Wojo.

I certainly wanted to give him a full cycle to see how he could rebuild our proud program in a way that would make both the fans and the administration happy. So far, no reason for me to be unhappy. I think he's done an outstanding job. Time to take the next step.

The fact that so many seemingly knowledgeable Scoopers -- many of whom I respect a great deal (and some I respect less) -- appeared to be so unwilling to even give Wojo a chance, I didn't get it.

I mean, if Wojo had gone 11-22 in his second season, as Shaka did at UT, Scoop woulda effen exploded!!

So every once in awhile, I do have to take a fun little swipe at Shaka ... just because!

Duke was also without Reddish for the whole game and Tre Jones for most of it.

NET hasn't been updated since their loss.  That being said, despite their total number of losses, they have yet to lose a game by more than 7 points, and I don't think they'll get punished too much by losing by 4 at the 22nd ranked NET team.  Even with a loss Saturday, unless its a blowout, I would guess that they're still top 25 NET next week.

I just find it humorous how "strong" the big10 is that Wisconsin could be finish the season 15-18 and be ranked in the top 25 Net.
