I know Tulsa has a station with real actual radio talent there, talking about local things all day. No reason why Wichita couldn't be the same. I could argue Wichita is more sports centric than Tulsa. Wichita State is far more of a draw than anything that happens in Tulsa city limits.
I live in the Tulsa area and can tell you the local sports station is not much better. They only cover OU and to a lesser extent OSU. Tulsa gets a mention here and there. If you are a fan of OU then it is probably great. Anyone else and it is unbearable.

I do hope the mods will review the Memphis fans' conversations here and, at the proper time, re-invite them to our board if they wish to participate on good terms.

The more I think about it, the more Bruce Pearl is the perfect fit at Memphis.
Coached in the state and they loved him for cheating. He's the next Calipari.
And I guarantee you it wouldn't take much more than the $2.5mm he's making at Auburn.

To me, that seems far more likely than Marshall. Pearl is well known in Tennessee, even if from experience at the other end of the state where he had success; he seems to aim for splashy, high-profile recruits; and he has every incentive to want to get the heck out of Auburn while he can do so voluntarily, because he doesn't seem to be gaining much traction there. Plus, Memphis is unquestionably a much better basketball job than Auburn is.
By contrast, Marshall has a great program already underway at WSU, a lot of returning talent -- almost certainly a reload rater than a rebuild -- and a great life in Doodah; plus (if his comments about not wanting to coach too many more years are to be believed, and why shouldn't they be?), he's already locked in for himself what should be a very lucrative, essentially lifetime deal.
Memephis would do well to hire Steve Forbes, but I'll bet if they can land Pearl they'd consider it a home run hire -- and so would Pearl."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:

I actually found most of the people on their board to be fair and objective. The one guy that said he was coming over here to stir things up, and apparently did, was warned by other posters there not to do it. He was told: "You're not that clever."
