Did you have an unhappy childhood?
Do you all disagree with us not having the easiest path? 2 home games. Everyone was picking N. Iowa to upset aTm and that almost happened until the last minute of the game and we all know that Oregon should not have been a one seed. You all were even admitting it right when the brackets came out and now you are denying it.
There is a thread about our easy region before the tournament started so lets not back track now.

Just curious. Why do you constantly denigrate or disparage the accomplishments of the OU basketball program? What is your motivation?

nobody is deniying that we had the easiest path as a two seed.
But we all know what you meant. You don't really think we were a final four quality team this year. Mainly b/c of our roster not having any 5 stars
UNC played a 16, 9, 5, and 6 seed to make the Final Four. No team had an easier path when looking at seeds. Next was Cuse with a 7, 15, 11, and 1 seed. OU had the 3rd easiest of the four teams, slightly in front of Nova (OU was closer to Nova than Cuse when looking at overall seeds faced).

Coach, I am stuck by that same thought almost everyday on here. Why does someone that interested in OU basketball constantly denigrate or disparage the accomplishments of the OU basketball program?
Almost any topic, any thread, any day. It is a constant. What is the motivation?

football fan that wants ou bball on the same level of ou football and will not stop kvetching until that happens....is my guess
Its funny how, before the tournament we can all talk about how we have the easiest path but now that the tournament is over...its shhhhhhh. Don't say it.
A final four is a final 4. I really don't care how easy it was b/c they screwed us over when Griffin was here b/c we should not have been in the same region as UNC. It prevented us from going to the final 4.
I'm sure glad Villanova wasn't given the one seed. I'm not complaining.
I never said that. I think we were capable of making the final 4. We had a Buddy on our team. We were also capable of winning it all. With Buddy...its like having a chip and a chair.
If you want to get mad b/c I said something everyone said before the tournament...like its going to take away our final 4 banner...is just foolish.

it's quite obvious what you were getting at.
Somebody said it is crazy to ***** about krugers recruiting when we just went to the final four.
Your response was pretty much, lets hope we get the easiest path every year. Hence downgrading our accomplishment and diminishing what kruger and this team did this year.
At this point, everybody views you as a troll and i'm kind of surprised you have lasted this long here

Nova wasn't the next in line for a 1 seed. Nova was the #7 seed overall, behind MSU and OU.
I'm not going to back down on the recruiting aspect until we win the big 12 or the big 12 tournament. Not finish 3rd in the big 12 and 3rd in the big 12 tournament.
Its great to make it to the final 4 but I'm not going to backtrack like you and some others are doing about the path to the final 4 once the tournament is over. At least I stick by what I said and most people said before the tournament.
I don't know what the line was. Nova didn't have a single bad loss and only 5 losses and they finished 8th overall?
Either way. We weren't the 8 overall team when Griffin was on our roster but we got stuck in the same region and we all know why...just so they could get the griffin vs hansbrough matchup.
