Sit down, Dixon!

 

"Sit down, Norm!" was truly a Husker fan favorite... as long as NU won the ballgame, that is.

Does the poor grammar in the thread title bother anyone else?

Yes, it does.

If you're a couple of drinks in, you won't notice it. Actually might be a better decoder for the rest of the thread.

My mind added a “be” after Fred and I’ve never noticed it until now.  Yikes.  Lol

Painter is a Gene Keady guy! He is a Boilermaker. 

 

Gene Keady: 0 final fours in 27 years as a head coach.

Gene Keady's college roommate: 2 final fours in 3 years as a head coach, and nobody remembers his name.

Dang it— you put the “be” in the wrong spot and now my mind read it as “be for Fred be next year”

My expectation for this coming season seems excessive; but it really isn't:

- put a team on the floor that is a joy to watch (like this past season)

- top half of league

- NCAA tournament with minimum of one win.

 

Seriously, this is not unreasonable.

I don’t judge success on only reaching Final Fours.  Keady is an all time great from Beloit, KS.

Longevity doesn't equal greatness

[jimmykc]

Shouldn't the title be, "What will be the expectations for Fred next year?" I just be wondering about this.

[49r]

Or "What will the expectations for Fred be next year?"

[jimmykc]

I be confused. Perhaps this was better without the "be" that we all could imagine for ourselves?

I had NO idea he was from Beloit. I used to live at the Captain’s Quarters as an 18 year old…

Or is it "Fred will be the expectation for next year"?

[AuroranHusker]

It's the time of year that one's grammar becomes the expectation. . .

It pisses me off how successful K State can be with a new coach and basically a whole new team and we're still struggling. Lincoln is a way better town than Manhattan.

Totally. Kansas State expects to be successful in basketball and that’s the difference. I don’t think they would put up with how bad we have been lately.
