The sad thing to me is not that we get the disrespect but that it takes these east coast guys coming here and experiencing it before anything gets said. I think Capel is right, we don't do a good enough job of touting ourselves. If a national title doesn't do it, apparently we need to yell louder. Fortunately actions speak louder than words, so a good showing by Big XII teams in this year of the Big East and ACC will help a lot.

Or kidnap Dick Vitale and remove his voice box.
