Wait a minute. Who's that in first? The one who's running HHCC? RIGGED, I TELLS YA, RIGGED! Quick. Deflect! Deflect! So, um.... Ken Pomeroy. He's in the Top 10. We need to do better. We're splitting another home and away this week in the conference slate. Home game vs. Ohio State (2-4 in conference play) and Penn State (3-3). We're splitting home and aways the following week with some favorable matchups as well. This is the point in the season where you start to position yourself as a top-half or bottom-half conference team. Which will it be?

At 9-9, we've already matched or exceeded 12% of our HHCC pre-season expectations. There are still 13 regular season games remaining. Wins | Cumul. % HHCC Expectations 7 | 5% 8 | 7% 9 | 12% 10 | 26% 11 | 38% 12 | 60% 13 | 74% 14 | 88% 15 | 91% 16 | 95% 17 | 98% 18 | 98% 19 | 100%

Dave Leitao at DePaul has 23 conference wins in 7 seasons right now (3 wins/season).

Can we just win an NCAA tournament game already so we don't have to relive every nook and cranny of our missteps and "what-ifs" between Nee, Collier, Sadler, Miles, and Hoiberg?

It doesn't work in one direction, as many allude to. Sure, we lost a chance to beat Purdue. If we get to 14 wins, it's also because we snuck out a win in OT against Minnesota.

Above expectations. But those expectations are much lower than when this staff started.

50 wins??? Hoiberg is just trying to get to 11!

Is Doc Sadler available?

Can it just be Freaky Friday, where we switch programs with someone else?

The mess within the Athletic Department is a contributing factor to many of the poor decisions we've made. We can debate whether a coach should still be here or some coaches should be gone, but we have a few AD administrations to thank for where we are today.

Wasn't there already a thread started?

That can't possibly be true. He would have a hard time recruiting to a place like Lawrence, Kansas because farmers and cold and stuff. No way it could work!

You know during childhood when you crossed your fingers behind your back when you made a deal and that meant it didn't count? He's buying his time and not honoring his commitments. Don't quote me, I'm just making that up.

They got pretty high on grass in the second half of that clip.

Under Hoiberg's leadership, we've gone on a: 3-game winning streak 3 times 4-game winning streak one time 10+ game losing streak twice (10 and 17 game streaks)

Corn - 58 Boils - 78

I'd say it's sunk cost, but we all watched the game tonight...they couldn't sink anything.

"He's scored eight straight points. It's a one man run!"

This game is on pace to finish 27-0.

Who wants to expand the playoffs when these are supposedly your four best teams? Talk about massive dilution of matchups with expansion. I get why they want to do it/will do it. But this particular case is terrible.
