But just to test your theory I ran a search of how many times I used the term "Skip" in the month. Answer? Twice. Go serve up your weak sauce somewhere else. :thumb: LMAO

Whitlock made them out to be world beaters.... "Cornell, but with a lot more talent".

Whatever they are, I hope they come out and try to punch KU in the mouth, and get the Jayhawks going early. I have all the faith in the world they can flip the switch when they need it, but in the world of one-and-done.....

IMO, They're not as good on D as that SIU team you're thinking about but they are a lot bigger in the post. The Morris twins will make a huge difference and that should wear down UNI. Iowa will have to shoot better than 50% from three and shoot a lot of them to hang with KU.

Good to know... seems like there are more and more of the grind-it-into-the-ground type of teams than there used to be, and it obviously keeps games close. That SIU game just left me numb... and on top of that, Jay Bilas was practically cheering for SIU (and I really like Jay Bilas... it was ridiculous).

I don't remember Bilas, but I do remember the grinding game. That was gut wrenching.

I don't think I've ever had this feeling before, because my teams always lose these games.... I'm never on this side of it, where it's a calm relief because of a brutal game with high expectations. Sure, my teams have had close wins, but nothing this close to "surviving to play another day". It's weird.



On a completely different note, now that I'm listening to him again.... F*** YOU Jay Bilas!! I never had a problem with him before, but he was insanely annoying..... I had gotten tired of Packer during the last round, but I'd gladly take him back now. He might as well have been bouncing up and down in the lane with a big "CHOKE" sign during our free throws. Well, it probably couldn't have made our free throw shooting any worse, but that's not the point.

To be honest, getting old stinks. You hurt a lot and being grumpy goes with the territory.

At the time, getting banned was the best thing in his life, so he told me, It gave him a chance to mellow out. He just figured it was best to get away for some time.
