    I was hoping that when this week's Sports Illustrated arrived, I would see Tekele Cotton on the cover. Such a disappointment to see D. McDermott instead. So, to cheer me up, Shocker Kid defaced the photo -- gave Dougie a unibrow, moustache, and a tattoo that says (of course) "Dad." Makes a mom proud!
    Next week I think

    • Just received a text that USA Today Weekend has pictures and an artivcle on the Shockers. I will look for that this afternoon. Probably has to do with their AA announcement.
      "I not sure that I've ever been around a more competitive player or young man than Fred VanVleet. I like to win more than 99.9% of the people in this world, but he may top me." -- Gregg Marshall 12/23/13 :peaceful:

      Remember when Nancy Pelosi said about Obamacare:
      "We have to pass it, to find out what's in it".

      A physician called into a radio show and said:
      "That's the definition of a stool sample."

          • Here's a good column from Lutz on Marshall.

            EDIT: After reading that, and the other national pieces that's been written about this WSU team and his coaching/recruiting philosophy, I think he's going to be a trendsetter among programs that aren't at the level of recruiting 4-star and 5-star players. He's now published a formula and it will be interesting to see if any other coaches will be able to pull it off to the degree and success Marshall has done it here, and at Winthrop.

              And it's why we don't have to apologize to anyone for our success. Even if we come up a bit short of what others might expect. I dare anyone to replicate it.

                      But... What about the "diehards"???

                      Haha!!! Ron knows what's up!!!

                      Think if it this way diehards, but letting the hot chicks sit up front, you are helping the team play better. Isn't that what you ultimately want?

                      I expect the "MORE HOT CHICKS 2014" campaign to heat up soon ;)

                        That's because he is, and always will be, one. If he seems any better now as a commentator, it's because you need to take a step back and realize the large number of A-holes that are also hired as commentators. :D

                            In 2001, Wichita State contemplated a new mascot design with the wheat shock character to be replaced by a strong-looking farmer with a sickle. When the image was leaked, the response was almost riotous. WuShock remained.

                            No doubt this was a last gasp idea by the Dark Days regime...

                              I wouldn't call Jim Schaus the Dark Days regime. To his credit after wasting $150,000 (to pay some national media firm to come up with new logo design) he backed off pretty quickly when the public reaction was so negative.

                              • Senior Wichita State forward and Bronx native Cleanthony Early, who leads the undefeated Shockers into the NCAA Tournament this week, took a shot at some Q&A with Post columnist Steve Serby. Q:…


                                Good interview with Early that will be in the NY Post tomorrow.
