      Congrats to Cle!

      Also I found it interesting that there's a decent chance of none of those players will return next year, which I think would be extremely rare. Just goes to show that even in the one-and-done era Seniors are still very valuable for the big name programs

          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."

                Put yourself back, 365 days ago. Other than @WuDrWu:, did you, in your wildest dreams, ever imagine it possible Wichita State would be where it is today?

                Final Four
                Undefeated season
                #1 seed (likely)
                Multiple All-Americans
                National COY (likely - considering AP and USBWA)
                Returning four of our top-5 scorers next year

                Wow. Just, wow.

                    My wildest dreams include winning the lottery..

                    This is a hell of a consolation prize though..

                        A year ago, that'd be classified as wet, not wild.

                        I'll see myself out.

                          And think about it this way. If you would have taken a poll of MVC fans before the start of last year and asked them if the conference as a whole (not just one team, but perhaps spread among several, in aggregate) would accomplish that list of feats over the next decade, would they take it?

                          I bet they'd be ecstatic. And WSU did it in one calendar year.

                            This year is special and I would have not even thought we would be seeing any of this ever, let alone in one season.
