Don't say you haven't been warned numerous times about bringing politics into the discussion. Have a nice vacation!

What a gem of a thread. Some absolute comic gold in some of these posts. Thanks for the laughs.

One ESPN analyst (former ND coach) has the Pokes in the National Finals!

Where in the wide world of sports did that come from?
Stuart Scott put them in his final 4

Tip my hat, that was a good call.
I will say this about the math though, it was either KenPom or Nate Silver, but one mentioned that out of the 78 mock brackets ran by their "computers", NC State was in the filed of 68 ONCE. Sometimes you can't account for the human element when it comes to making a decision.
Duh, I saw that. 9th seed when they were top 5 early on - Nothing to be proud of, lol. I believe the Zags will take care of you all. Big teams are your problem and they are deep. 7'1" and 6'9" and another 7 footer off the bench I believe. IF and I say IF the Ags get by that one I think a 20 point beat down would await them from Arizona. Great year Dig, lol. You have so much to look forward to next year, NOT. Oh, you all are a football school now.....Oh crap that one doesn't look good either, lol.
It's Gold that you clicked on it, LOL (at you)
Why would I be worried about Next year?
Nash
Forte
Cobbins
Murphy
Williams
Hammonds
Carroll
A good recruiting class coming in: Newberry (a top JUCO point) and the 4star recruits in Terrell, Burton and Solomon....likely adding a 5 star guard on Wednesday...and will be adding a PF/C as well...Not worried at all, record will be better IMO.
Football, keep winning, systems are in place, recruiting has been good...
Because you lose your two best players, or three best players if Nash leaves.
Any time your optimism for next year revolves around bringing in SIX new players, it's not great.
This - (without brown this year you all would be about 12-20)
And even the biggest homers for the Ags in Oklahoma media are saying it's gonna be a BAD year for your aggies, lol
While OU keeps getting stronger and stronger - most of the team coming back and some awesome recruits - 2 Bigs
I certainly wouldn't trade recruiting classes and that doesn't include if Lyle commits on Wed...

OSU's record needs to be better next season. Even if it is, I am not sure OSU will have a better team. This was a strange season for OSU.
I didn't realize you had a 5-star to replace a 5-star...not bad! By all accounts, you will have a top 20-top 25 team next year. We should as well, so it's good to see a Bedlam matchup with two highly competitive teams.
If you can win your toss-up game against the Zags and then upset Arizona, that would be a lot of pressure off Ford. However, as you know, he'll be on the hot seat if you don't make it out of the first weekend. I realize they're not expected to based on seed, but their talent level, even minus Cobbins is a lot higher than an 8/9...hence the Final Four predictions.

I know the link above may not come as a surprise, but it's definitely not good news for the Pokes regardless.

I would take ours knowing that Lon recruits Talent along with good citizens. Unlike Ford who can recruit talent but they are mostly NUTS, lol. You can have your crazy's while we are growing 4year players that are talented and stay around. You enjoy your BAD coach and crazy players, lol
