Fine.  Figure out who makes aggy's baseball schedule, and do that for Texas basketball.  Play 15 complete patsies (excluding Radford and Providence), go 23-8, make the tourney, win?

Yea because when you do the quadrant bullshit and are at the top for bubble teams and it goes against their theory and they don’t like the .500 team they change it back to overall wins. Ou making it at a 9 is a prime example. They don’t exceed us in any area but overall wins and they get in as a 9. Makes sense.

Texas should learn, we are p5 and at the end of the day win 19+ games and you are in and who it’s against won’t matter either.

To an extent. There is a reason Seth Greenberg is on espn. From 2008-2011 he won 21, 19, 25, and 22 games. However his noncon SOS was 150, 227, 336, and 158. During these years the ACC was pretty consistently the best conference. At some point you have to play teams with a pulse. 

There is no reason UT cant schedule a top 50 NCSOS, win 20 games easily, and always be in the tourney. It’s really as much of an administrative failure as anything.

This is pathetic.  How can we not recruit players that can’t shoot?  I think the Shaka experience has shelf life of 1 year.  If not for the buyout, he’d be gone.  They better show up in the NIT.  

Does the NIT even matter? It's a loser tournament, has been ever since the NCAA expanded above 32 teams.

Even if we win the stupid thing, I still say FIRE SHAKA!

We're awesome at recruiting players that can't shoot.

The RPI sucks and the NET doesnt seem any better, but I'd still like the process better if they'd just announce at the start of the season that they would just pick and seed the tournament by going straight down the RPI list, rather than having the committee throw their own subjective bullshit into it.

That’s the truth.  How do all these schools get guys who can hit an open jumper and we get guys who could build the new arena during shoot around?

We have guys capable of shooting well, but nobody capable of shooting well consistently.

NCAA has never since they've gone to this format put in an at-large 16 loss team.  And it would have been a joke to do it now.
Either way it doesn't matter worth a shit.  Save plane fare and travel expense just to get beaten after one more game, because that's a metaphysical certainty that would have happened.  Probably get our shit pushed in by a 6 or 5 seed anyway.
Shaka's here next year though... moose out front shoulda told ya.

Oh fuck, Al and the Clones are coming to Tulsa. Please support our plethora of local breweries and leave the Busch to the meth crowd. Also, remember that we changed the law last year and gas stations and grocery stores are no longer limited to 3.2.
