BS
Think you misunderstood me... I was saying my evaluation of kU as a national title dark horse had nothing to do with the name on the jersey and everything to do with what I had seen on the hardwood.
I'm definitely with you on the state school/small school thing... Missouri—when it's not being run by a cokehead who seems more interested in schtupping his star player's girlfriend—can attract a level of player schools like SMS can only dream of.
tk,
UNI has a solid shot at the Sweet 16/Elite 8... but I doubt you'd find anyone who would consider them a dark horse national title contender. That's the difference in having mediocre talent and superior coaching and execution (UNI) and having superior talent with good coaching and improving execution (kU).
A 'great' season for a basketball power in the MVC is a run to the Sweet 16 or Elite 8. A 'great' season for a basketball power in the Big 12, Big 10, Pac 10, Big East, SEC or ACC is a Final Four/National title appearance.
That's the key difference...
