  1. Tough loss, had a chance to pull away in the 2nd half and we didn’t. When you let someone hang around & hang around this is what happens. Hopefully Amir is back in the mix on Sunday, on to Iowa City...
  2. I’m guessing that Seton Hall loss might have scared some of the Bookies via the “transitive” property. I expect the Terps to hang around early, but we’ll cruise in the 2nd half. And BTW, thank God Melo Trimble is finally out of there...
  3. I predicted 25 wins(at least)& I’m sticking to it. That includes a 13-5 finish in the Conference approx., plus wins in the B1G tournament, & the NCAA tournament. You don’t have to be chuggin’ the Kool-aid to think that’s within reach...
  4. Passing Jack Moore on any list is a BIG deal, his true worth tho will really shine through now that we're entering Conference play. Former Vikings Coach Jerry Burns use to say yer "Big Knockers" have to show up during the big games. Well Glynn Watson is certainly one of those...
  5. What are the chances we can land Luke Walton once the Lakers fire him?
  6. I'd say Indiana and Michigan St are your 50/50 games, the rest of em I'd lean heavily towards a "W"
  7. Think #44 George Gervin, he’s like the “Iceman from Iceland”...
  8. Another tune-up before Iowa...
  9. Not to overstate the obvious but this team has only scratched the surface. I’m excited like the rest of us to see what this team can do when it’s “pushed.” In years past there were games on the schedule you’d just draw a line thru, or expect an act of God to win. Not this year...
  10. Yes this one did follow the script, lots of guys got to play, lots of guys put forth a solid effort (especially on D) given the level of competition. Now the rubber hits the road. I know 3 outta the next 4 are on the road, but ya know what? I expect us to WIN 3 outta those next 4 too!

  12. I miss the “Bob” & that list of only 8 teams seems freakishly small these days...
  13. I believe there was a Jim Beam & Coke sold in a can for awhile, but not even a Sorority girl would be caught dead with that...
  14. Remember, there’s no Whiskey Lite, there’s no Whiskey Coolers, Whiskey doesn’t lead to the hard stuff, it IS the hard stuff...
  15. How can you do nothing but WIN and fall out of the rankings? Have those Seton Hall and Creighton wins been diminished? I'll go with Miles and his ISU quote. Will be interesting to see what we're seeded after winning the B1G...
  16. All kidding aside, I'd bet money the Prairie Wolves would give us more of a game then the Golden Mustangs will. Forget about that Creighton "Let it Fly" BS, those Weslyan boys can fill it up like nobodies business. Hell, I'd even put money on an alumni team of "Plainsmen" led by Dana Janssan over USWMS...
  17. In this most Holy time of year, let us stop and count our blessings. Friends, family, a wonderful arena that’s always sold out, a Top 25 program and a Bigfoot convention that meets annually in Hastings...
  18. Hey Dirk did an absolutely fantastic piece about Danny Nee earlier this year in the OWH so you have to cut him SOME slack... just sayin’
  19. I for one am looking forward to giving Iowa a SOUND beating at Carver Hawkeye arena in a couple weeks...
  20. It’s located in Marshall MN which isn’t terribly far from Minnesota’s “Pheasant Capitol” of Madelia on Hiway 60.
  21. Amir’s long term health is obviously priority #1, that being said, if he is given to take a Redshirt he still has 4 years with us & an additional year to polish his game...
  22. I’ll say #1, but I did see that Maryland lost today to... Seton Hall. Don’t sleep on those swashbuckling Pirates!
