Wichita State vs. Newman Pregame Discussion

[SB Shock]

Picked up Newman to play us.

I guess it not so easy to pick up P5 schools or WSU just hoisted up the white flag on this season.

Picked up Newman to play us.

That’s fantastic. Way to pick up a quality opponent.

[shock]

Hopefully we can find something. I expect it will be tough but not impossible considering the circumstances this year.

Obviously we can’t be too picky at this late stage but I wonder what level team they will target or if it will just be any team. I can see a benefit for each level.

ESU level allows us to develop depth, experiment and pad the W-L record but won’t really help us come tourney time.

Mizzou level would give us another shot at picking up an out of conference resume builder but a win is not guaranteed and probably wouldn’t allow the end of the bench to touch the court.

WVU?

Ksu plays tomorrow. So that's unlikely

KU is available until the 2nd... So that's unlikely

LoL. Funny and true. Yes, I could have looked it up myself but I just refuse to. I have standards.

When is the next game for the teams in northeast Kansas?

Game vs ECU postponed because of their COVID. WSU looking for a replacement opponent.

Should not be hard - I remember Sticky telling us that we needed to cancel the ND tournament games and just go schedule some p5 games.

How did that tournament work out ...

Yea.. might want to realize every time you bring that up you are congratulating me on being right that travel then was a bad idea

OU is off until the 2nd...

Gardner scares the crap out of me. That is my assessment.

We seem to be pretty good at shutting down the primary options this year. Its figuring out who else is gonna step up and shut them down
