      A very good synopsis of information but seems like most of that I have heard before somewhere. Just can't quite remember where though.

      Covered a lot of items, but, yes, I have seen this all somewhere before.

      I do think Taylor overplayed his hand regarding the rebuild for '12-'13 by making it appear to the more casual fan that Armstead and Baker were part of that year's recruits.

      I agree ShockTalk. He did kind of overstate that as Malcolm and Ron were already on the roster in 2012-13 and 3G pretty much new what he had with them. Fred and Cle were not doubt big pickups. Do we have a Malcolm and Ron waiting in the wings from this year and a Fred and Cle in our incoming recruiting class. Well 3G isnt done recruiting so perhaps we should defer that discussion until he is.

      Funny you mention Bleacher Report. There was an article that said the same thing going into the 2012-13 season.

        What about those two Florida boys that MARSHALL saw Thursday

    • The AAC schedule is going to be interesting. We were treated very well this past season. I wonder if we’re going to get a bit of a boost from being Wichita State or if we’re going to end up with a middle or bottom tier AAC schedule.

          Cats are so obvious. What would you expect from Weber and Lowrey.

        The word is out. Everybody knows the Shockers will have anywhere from 6 to 9 Freshmen next year. Nice to see you again K-State. What took you so long?

        Who will call next? Duke? Kentucky?

      • Of course they want to play now. Not saying it will be but the perception is WSU will have the worst team they have had in the last what, 7 or 8 years. If this isn't a very long term contract then it is a terrible decision to play KSU.

            • Nice of K-State and Weber to confirm they are a bunch of pansies. At least Self and KU have the courtesy to pretend they have reasons for declining a series besides just being pansies.

                  Which would be no great surprise, by the way.

                  We don't have a chance against next season's cats; we were ranked what, 25th? They are ranked 10-13? No chance at all.

                  Well that might be their ranking before anyone leaves early, is arrested, or has to deal with parole

                I’m not able to find it now, but isn’t the aac conference schedule some how based on the previous year’s RPI?

                  I believe they also look what players left the program and who's coming in.

                  You could be right ShockTalk, but I don’t remember that part.

              • Recently rewatched the 2012 VCU game for first time in 6 years. IIRC, not a single starter that night returned the following year in the Final Four. It was weird to see Ron on the bench as a virtual nobody, lol.
