I thought Torrey started to show some good signs down the stretch and into the MAC tournament, so while it isn't a killer I'm a little bummed.

Is Skip back?

Awesome

We're going to be good. I don't see Hester as being 3rd string by any means. I'm expecting a grad transfer in at PG again, but we'll see

Sweet, any reports on White? I'm sure I could have missed something, but he's the one I was most interested to hear about. This semester of work could go a long way. I think he could help right off the bat

Any early enrollees? Pretty pumped to get some of the guys on campus and see how they fare over the summer. TB did his best recruiting yet

Chill, man. For your own good. Go Zips

Even if 1 of the extra 32 teams was a mid-major, that would be a better chance. So count me in for a "yes"

Sendy's proposal was to add 32, well, 28, to get to 96. It would add one extra round, which I'd definitely be okay with. You're still at under 1/3 of teams in the tourney, as opposed to over half of NCAAFB teams I think.. My opinion is that I think the public would view the first round the way they view the "first four," aka not really in the tournament yet. If there were 96 teams, I think you'd have to give 32 teams byes, and 64 would play to get into the round of 64. While I don't think I have anything against the idea, I don't think fans will really have that "we made the tourney" feel unless they get to that round of 64 game. Which is a whole lot of a better chance than mid-majors get now, so I'm for it.

To be fair it hurts to be a kitten at all times

UTA's arena is pretty much exactly what I would wish for

Both would be great hires. Doubt Ollie would take the job.. As for Cross, I never want to see him again

Maybe they just want to complain. If the team is fine with it, and I'm sure they are just like every other team in the history of ever, then who gives a sht

That's kinda where my confusion is as well. Either way, best of luck Antino.

Tressel it is

Past coach or player?

I will go to my grave thinking the UTA game against us last year was the best basketball performance I've ever seen. I'm convinced they would have beaten anyone in the country that night.

Sounds like it's time for the next installment of CK interviewing TB

I don't think it would be bad form if guys have already announced they're leaving. Plus I view the OU -> Illinois move differently than Illinois -> UA since they fired him.. Guess we will see

Paging @Illini Zip

I was gonna say, there would have been some activity on here if that had happened.

Blah let's hope not. Let's also hope this isn't some cryptic reference to Nevada, the new Transfer U
