What’s interesting is most everyone else doesn’t have to explain it even once, yet for some reason you have to continue to explain
Over and over.

What is more interesting is everyone else that is rational doesn’t ask the question multiple times, but you continue to.  So it must mean you have a problem processing the answer.

Agreed. It's dumb.

We will not need any help from the Badgers this year. I’m good with them losing as many games as possible.

Yessir.

I love that nobody should feel it's necessary to "respect" their program any more, either.

Kaminsky, Dekker, Hayes, Koenig and Gasser ain't walkin' through that door again, and Gard ain't Bo.

They had a heck of a run. It's over. Unless somebody progresses amazingly well, Happ-less F%cky will be REALLY hapless next season.

Our 20 point win over them at the suddenly quiet Kohl Hole next December will be a drag on our NET rating, but I can live quite happily with that!

I am in agreement that I no longer feel the need to respect the Badgers program. There is no doubt that I was envious of what the Badgers had going, and now that run is over. Hopefully MU can take full advantage of their demise when it comes to in state recruiting.

They did have a heck of a run, and in my opinion worth respect. I was brought up to respect your opponents, I imagine you were, too.  Especially if they did it right. To my knowledge, they weren't cheating, no scumbags on the team, and the like.  One of the longest runs in NCAA history for a program that did essentially nothing for 47 years. 

I, too, am extremely happy when we beat them, after all it is our Super Bowl.   I think you guys are out to lunch to suggest its over, it may take a break, but when you build it up like they did and as provincial of a state that Wisconsin is, they will pull out all the stops to get it going again. This state bleeds 80% red in everything, I think they like having hemhroids just to see red on the paper when they wipe....just the way it is.  That is never going to change in a state like Wisconsin where there is only one big state school.

I respect what F%cky did, both under Bo and Bennett.

Before that, they sucked for 1,000 years. I have seen no evidence to suggest they will approach anywhere near their golden days under Bo anytime in the foreseeable future. And, first and foremost, they care about football.

F%ck F%cky. They're toast.

Go Marquette!

The only time our game was tied with Creighton was 0-0 and when the clock read 0:00.00. 

This was the amazing part of the Creighton game that was lost with Markus' 53 ... MU did not lead or tie the game during all 40 minutes of regulation and yet won.  I cannot imagine that happened but a handful of times in CBB history.

Bo was the scumbag.

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

Highly unlikely, and if so it will be short lived.

On the face of it, both programs seem to be following the same path.

agree?

There is a huge difference, the second that babies are born in WI, hospitals start the cradle to grave brainwashing by putting them in that red crap.  With football and their pathetic division they play in, they will likely be competing for division titles year in and year out which has a halo effect.  The two big things we have going for us; Milwaukee, because so many basketball players come from urban backgrounds and want to continue playing in that environment.  The other, for now, is the NBA presence here.  Of course many top programs aren’t in an urban setting and don’t have a NBA team, so it is by no means a guarantor of success.

Let’s also not forget in the mid 80’s MU’s facilities were a joke, no conference, the university was at end of the Raynor run and not exactly clicking on all cylinders. UW-Madison extension is in no way comparable shape and they have all the non alumni in the state slathering for them whenever possible.  UW has the Big Ten network, to boot.  Go to the mall and try to buy a sweatshirt of MU vs UW Madison extension.  No contest.  I don't think the Wolf example holds any comparisons based on the reality of where MU was then, and where UW is now.

So no, I don’t think it represents anything of the parallel path as the situation and environment are so different.
