off topic but I just saw this the other day and thought to myself "what a difference a couple of months can make"
HCGM on Erik earlier this season:
"Erik is obviously in the right program. He committed to us early, he helped put together the recruiting class and he loves it. He loves being a Shocker, he loves Shocker nation"

What was your worst ever prediction?

Obviously we let good become the enemy of great. What that means specifically I don’t know.
I remember in the SMU meltdown thread you said something like “this is the special season we were promised?” Promised. I think you need to consult the dictionary more often.

Here’s the WSU basketball player who impressed Gregg Marshall the most this spring
HCGM on AM - "“He took another step, I don’t know for what reason,” Marshall said. “But I noticed a different pep in his step if you will. He was a little more athletic, a little quicker, a little more explosive. It’s amazing if that is a mental thing and he flipped the switch.”

My worst prediction (and I’ve appreciated you guys not killing me on it) was last year when I had received some information that should have been very solid...but wasn’t (something happened to change the report)...about WSU was to have a first round NIT game at home. That proved to be wrong...I could have shot my source.

Here’s an idea for discussion. I was running an errand this past week when I heard Bruce and Shane on the radio. They were talking the NBA when Bruce mentioned Trae Young and Shane mentioned LeBron as guys who they were wrong about. Both thought those guys would fail. Bruce has been wrong so far. Shane was incredibly wrong.
What was your worst prediction? Maybe you thought someone would suck who turned out to be great. Maybe vice versa...you thought someone would be great who ended up flopping. Maybe a team. Maybe a game. Maybe a rule. What did you get wrong?
This could be about Shocker Athletics but could also be about anything across sports. I’m curious to see what people will admit.

(This part is to whom it may concern," but definitely not directed at the JVShocker) you think you're better than everyone else, your world will eventually crash around you, cause you're not better than anybody else. Everybody got to where they are with a helluva lot of help along the way. Show gratitude, be humble, and kick ass and take names doing it, cause without said help along the way, we'd all prolly be a helluva lot worse than we are now.
I bet everyone here can think of a bunch of times we ended up getting help in a critical moment that turned out in your favor when it could've easily gone wrong.
And those are the times you *know* about. Have gratitude for your scholarships, for being able to couch at Wichita State U, for being a mascot, a fan, a rival, and a Shockernet poster.
