Who is Albrecht?

For the most part Albrecht is a good media guy for the Wichita market. But he's driving me crazy this morning. He doesn't understand or have a reference point for the recent history of Shocker basketball.

He asks what the reaction was like to the start of the GM era after 9 win first season. I mean it took him 5 years to make the tournament and it took MT 6-7 years. He has no clue what the starting points were. He acts like IB started with completely bare cupboard. He keeps on saying all of GM's players left and he had to start with nothing. What???

He also acts like they've only played 2 bad halfs this season, UNT and Memphis.

I for one clearly remember how I felt year 2 of GM era - pure freaking excitement about the future. You could clearly see something was being built. You had a pretty good sense the record would improve every season going forward.

Dude needs a history lesson rather than cherry picking win totals and tourney appearances with absolutely no context.
