I think this will be very telling regarding our fanbase's priorities. Assuming we win 7+ games, it could give the AD indication (outside of the GMG.com "expertise") whether or not winning regardless of opponent brings in the crowds.

Just a hunch, but I don't believe the other pep bands stand a chance against the Dentonites. **edit not that it's a competition or anything....

He'll be tourney MVP if we win the dang thing.

I didn't know there was even a hint of concern that CJ would return? I must be in the dark.

Too much fun at the Artmosphere?

The Moontower Conference (MTC)! Who wouldn't want to go to the Moontower?!?

Anyone else think it is ridiculous to think Tony is not - hands down - the best shot blocker this league has...maybe ever? Or am I truly ignorant and Kadeem (and the USA kid?) is an absolute beast?

No way. Uh-huh. There's no way I can bet. It's against my religion. I was raised to *not* be a gambler. There's no way I'm going to bet. ...... I told those "guys" down at the league office.... There.

Every single team that beat us, it was close. And I believe - through today - LaLa is the only team that can claim a sweep. We are the tourney wild card, IMO.

Boom. WKU wins.

HAHA, I would love to see SMU in the Pit! It just dawned on me that I've never seen that happen. Shame.

I know! And I don't remember ever seeing this scenario play out. BTW, what's with the Sunday game time? I don't see this listed on ESPN3, so this isn't about television opportunity. It must be due to a school's scheduling conflict?

I'm just waiting for the day when they get past that first round. Mean Green Mania would go to eleven.

way to go Belt.

CJ got much much better about not turning it over his last 3 - 4 games, no? Not trying to argue; just saying that he was getting better and we have a ton to look forward to next season.

I use GasBuddy. Haven't seen that yet. I'll keep an eye out on it.

+1 for the typo. Intentional or not, don't care.

Marlin is a good coach. I don't think it's BS.

I was kindly reminded of that today. Bozeman is a great example of why Tony still has a shot. But my point (poorly made) was that the voters favor title-winning players. I still stand by that.

No mention of greed, but Rick's last link quotes Jessica Brady, AAA spokeswoman, with a hint towards speculation: I'm just skimming over this thread as it grows, moreso because I love to read (albeit, lightly) about understanding the markets. I worked for 3 years in the capital markets area of a home loan lender. I don't know if you can compare the two (home lending/oil), but in the hedge/futures market, we monitored a lot of economic indicators (jobless rates, price of oil barrels, etc) to determine pricing. It seemed like there was a lot of speculation involved. I fully concede your 22 years is > my 3 years, so it is only meant as humble curiosity.

But they were in the title game. He was a good player that I am not sure would have even been considered had they not made that incredible run, with that incredible shot. Do you disagree?

TWU?

I don't necessarily disagree with you, but POY awards are generally favored towards players on winning teams. We are really really struggling to hang on to the last by. Tony is getting ridiculous stats, but MTSU's Dendy (sp) has to be the media/coaching favorite simply because of their record. It's a tough pill to swallow. How many video game QBs in college football failed to win the Heisman because they were not in contention for the national title? The analogy there is on a much grander scale, but the idea still applies.
