And have you seen their roster? In spite of their success on the floor, it's not like they've been killing it on the recruiting trail. At least not if you go by Rivals rankings. They have a PG transfer from Arkansas who was a Rivals top 150 3-star in HS with some pretty decent offers. They also have a 4-star freshman from the local area who's been playing well for them.

Beyond that, their roster is pretty ordinary. From what I can tell, they have some guys who can shoot and they have guys with a lot of heart who go in and battle. One of their best "big" men is a 6'4" sophomore. Few of their guys had very impressive offer sheets coming out of HS. If we had been looking at those same guys, many of us would have turned up our noses at the wasted scholarships.

But, here they are soon to be ranked and coming off an OT win over the #1 ranked team in the nation.

My point is, we can DO this!

Norm, we can do this just as soon as our idiot coach takes a lesson from elite coaches like Dana Altman and stops losing games and starts winning them instead.

49r, I have just about resigned myself to it being just our luck that we wind up hiring a coach who can't beat Oregon on the road with a depleted roster of guys few other major programs recruited. I mean, if Miles can't win THAT game ...

You sunshine pumpers are all the same.

Everything well, we are going to be great.

Man does it get old.

Is there such a thing as a Positive Pete troll?
