We obviously need more money so we can build a bigger culture wall.

Bottom line. Every citizen has the right to spend money the way they choose, assuming they aren’t doing something illegal with it. Every business needs to understand that.

He would shush you after banking in a 3 pointer.

Purgatory is where people go to ski because we missed the tournament again. What you predict is exactly what everyone wants to happen. It’s going to take winning and the consistent hope of winning to get butts back in seats.

I prefer the old way where they weighted how you played late a little more. But, yes. that is not the way any longer and everyone knows it (maybe not Porter). I really don’t know which way is better anyway. I’ve seen teams who are hot play like crap in Round 1 and teams who are cold get hot...

I think everyone agrees OU basketball is a very difficult problem. But I don’t believe the guys in position have figured out how to solve it for quite a while. We’ll see how Denny does and I hope he at least gets it going in a better direction.
