Gottlieb is twisting his words now to make sure he still has a fallback in April. Back in December it was "Wichita State is definitely not a Top 10 caliber team." Now it's "Wichita State DESERVES a 3 seed." So when we win the whole f'n thing and Gottlieb gets proven wrong he's just going to say "I didn't say there weren't good, I just said they didn't have a good resume." The fact that he's switched to making sure he covers his bases at least means that he knows Wichita State is legit.

Gottlieb is one wierd dude. He tends to use only "I think" as fact. Back in 2006, right after we beat Tennessee, Gottlieb said, "I am not impressed with WSU's win over Tennessee. I don't think Tennessee is that good."
It is impossible to discuss things with some people because just as you lay a fact right in front of them, they counter it with "well, I think..."
Not a damn thing you can do about it.

I think WSU fans are possibly the best fan base in the nation when it comes to dealing with people like Gotleib. We have to deal ku/ksu fans on a daily basis who think just like him. And personally with those comparisons he made of us to ku during that rant and how wsu amounts to nothing,I think he's just someone that hates change perhaps? There's only 1 school in Kansas that plays d1 ball in his mind.WSU'S basketball tradition isnt THAT bad.. The program just took the entire decade of the 90s off and has just been reasserting itself the past 14 years. The best thing that could happen to WSU after it's all said and done is finding a more respected conference.

Originally posted by TheYetiThe most telling thing I could add is that if I passed Gottlieb on the sidewalk, I wouldn't even know who he was."We can't win at home. We can't win on the road. As the general manager, I just can't figure out where else to play." -Pat Williams

As I recall, years ago, when Gotleib was playing point guard for O St under Eddie Sutton.....they played us here. We were not very good and they were highly rated, but we upset them. Don't think that would play into his opinion but.......

I got my pay back with Gotlieb last year. Before the game against Gonzaga he tweeted Gonzaga only had a bad shooting game because they had been off for 12 days, I retweeted him that we had been off for 13 and he doesn't acknowledge that it may have effected our shooting versus Pitt. After beating Gonzaga, he was at the team hotel. I walked up to him and all I said was, 13 days off certainly must have effected our shooting.
