AP and Coaches Poll Watch Thread (2015-16 Edition)

[kcshocker11]

Who the hell cares where Creighton's ranked? They are completely irrelevant to the status of our
team. I'm dumbfounded by the need to push the Bluejays down to pump us up. We'll kick ass and take names regardless of what they do.

You obviously dont get the joke!

[wusphlash]

it's not where you start the race....

That's right. It's a marathon not a sprint. Although with our team speed a sprint wouldn't be bad either.

[Blackmag]

Should have been a top 10, with three returning starters and two preseason All American guards. Such is life out of the power five and little 12. Like it's been pointed out already, it's not where you start but where you finish. To much is put into recruits who have never set foot in a division-one game. We know how that works out for kU.

AP Poll is set to be released on Monday or Tuesday. Ballots were due yesterday.

I have my s#!t-list ready. Who wants to be on it?

Apparently not Jon Wilner.

[Play Angry]

Jerry Carino has us at #7 and Doug Haller at #13. Would link but since my work laptop was "upgraded" and IE is now the only permitted browser thanks to a tech revamp, I seem to have lost that capability on SN. Grrrrrr.

[Cdizzle]

Doug Haller with the early lead.

I know we are not suppose to make fun of the BJs, but.... I took a gander at their board today. They have as many posts today in the off-topic section in a thread about Phil Collins coming out of retirement as they have in their Men's basketball section.

You ok bro? I don't really care either. I don't visit their site or look up how they are doing. But you seem a little more angry about a Shocker fan who may be a little more obsessed than necessary. I do remember some Sweater vest fans who were (and I imagine still are) so very arrogant over small time successes against WSU. Is there a reason for your higher than normal anger?
