I agree! UT did everything they could to make it as difficult as possible to graduate. But, I'm old (late 90's) and experiences will differ. But for those who shared an experience like mine that parchment was hard earned. One Tiny Example: About a month before graduation, my parents (don't...

saying the NCAA *is* the member institutions is like saying the federal government *is* the American people. Granted, member institutions like *we the people* have some say, but there is a lot that goes on that has nothing to do with us and that's why we protest, sue, and otherwise to keep that...

I read somewhere that based on tournament seeding, Barnes has the lowest win percentage in the tournament of any coach. Or something like that.

Never has been acceptable. Never will be.

It's absolute recency bias, and it is astounding how people think that is sustainable. Also, consider that most of the predictions about Mizzou are made by people who didn't predict Mizzou last year (thus making last year a great story to begin with).

Wouldn't that extra win, plus more experience, make a significant difference?

The committee, that left them out, didn't think so...

You're not.

Since we're discussing historical comparisons that don't have much if any impact on this year's game. I'll leave this here.

Iowa lost to any team with a pulse that they played in the B1G. We're built much closer to any team they've lost to, than we are to any team they've beat...by every meaningful **predictive** measure. If UT loses this game...it's a coaching/motivation problem. And let's be real, we have a...
