Chiefsfan, do you consider our Chiefs to have a strong tradition? I do, and if you do, you're basing that on regular season success, because it certainly hasn't been built in the post-season.
Along that same line of thinking, Mizzou basketball has had great success and has built a fine tradition. Maybe it isn't as strong as KU's, but it is there. I don't have the numbers in front of me, but I'm sure Mizzou is second only to KU in regular season conf. titles over the last 20-25 years, and post-season conf. titles, too. Mizzou may even be ahead on that one, we used to own the Big 8 tourney. I can't recall South Carolina ever winning an SEC championship of any sort, certainly not several.
And as far as KU's tradition goes, that's built mostly around the inventors/legends of the game, stuff from 40-50 yrs ago. There is nothing in the modern era tourney history that sets KU apart from several other schools that have one title to their name. That's not a shot, that's just the way it is, IMO....
