ESPN - Wichita State still flying under the radar

[SHOCKvalue]

Dear Myron,

WSU has seen a ridiculously large amount of media coverage since the F4 run. Sorry you haven't noticed.

Garbage article. ESPN runs stories on its NCAAB page of ranked teams' games. Unless you're a mid-major Midwestern TV with virtually no TV coverage.
ESPN should change its name to North Eastern Sports Network.

Actually, Speed, WSU did have a headline on the ESPN men's basketball home page this morning; I read the story.

[shock]

Gregg Marshall's team isn't getting love nationally, but Wichita State looks to be a national title contender again.

there was this

A lot of people seem to be missing one of his key points that the Shox were the only F4 team to not be rated in the top ten, allegedly because we lost Malcolm and Carl, even though the other 3 teams lost just as much, if not more talent. And what more proof do people need beyond the DePaul game being relegated to ESPN3 and the BYU game taking a back seat to the NIU football game to understand the point of this article?

Yes, the discussed story & a story about the game. Baker was mentioned in the title. But after many games this season there were no stories when lesser ranked, or unranked east coast teams earned stories. Or, BCS schools were carried over from the night before.

That's because there's no way a non-bcs school can reload. Oh wait....sure looks like one did and does every year under a certain Marshall.

Yeah...gotta agree. That was pretty lame....but you got to remember t.v. sets. Markets are a byatch. ;)

Saw this follow up from Eamon Brennan to Myron's quote.... his recap of the Holiday tourneys..

The Shockers never looked totally in the flow offensively, but never looked anything but commanding defensively and on the glass. They headlined the CBE Classic and lived up to billing, and if they really are flying under the radar this season, well, stop that, you guys.
