    That was hysterical. I guess the SIU board is pretty upset that he keeps calling them out on these interviews. They're pretty upset over there.

    So he wants to kick his wife's ass in checkers huh? LOL.
    Deuces Valley.
    ... No really, deuces.

      He would be too distracted to beat her. Her head fake is far too good.

      • Hinson has taken the program that Lowery buried and he caught up with UNI this year. SIU fans should be celebrating instead of calling for his head.

          I think it was more of a UNI fell back to them then SIU catching up with anyone.

          The thing is can SIU do better than Barry for what they are willing/able to pay?

            Probably true for the most part, but at least he's kept them afloat (whereas Lowery had sunk them) while the UNIs have fallen out of the boat and are now floating next to him in the vast sea of MVC mediocrity.

              Good read on how the mid-majors and non P5 teams are getting screwed by the Selection Committee.

                Nice article, but they need a better editor. A couple of phrases were worded incorrectly and it takes away from the very solid premise of the article.

                .....but, statistically speaking, you miss 99% of the shots you do take.

                  Including the 6th team in a 16 team conference is equivalent to having Jeb Bush with 4 of 130 delegates based on the Feb. 2016 early primaries (6th after Trump, Cruz, Rubio, Kasich and Carson) being in a run-off re-re-election for President.

                  Using Georgia 9-9 conference record, they are 3-8 against the 7 teams above them in the conference and 6-1 against the six teams below them Their three wins above them in the conference are all over teams 9-7, one game better than Georgia's 8-8 record. Tell me why they should be in the discussion of having another chance against any of these 7 teams above them.

                    Lots of good stuff but my favorite is

                    But let's get real. WSU is sacking and pillaging everyone right now, including Illinois State a few weeks back. The unfortunates on the Shockers side of the bracket are likely in for a St. Louis hiding, Arch Madness curse for WSU or not.



                    I really appreciate the thought he put into his selections, and not just because WSU is well represented. He did NOT punch and click. He made choices (POY choice won't be popular among other voters) and backed them up with facts and not crazy hyperbole. Well done sir.
                    I also like that the theme song for the conference is from a great Otis Redding album that I've been listening to a lot lately.

                    • The numbers aren’t in Wichita State’s favor. One top-50 win, two top-100 victories. An RPI of 40. And, yet, it would be an injustice if the NCAA Tournament selection committee opts to pass on them …


                      Another for our cause...

                              Surely he quickly glanced our resume and confused Clemson with CSU?

                              • OU beat 'em. Maybe he was referencing our RPI (tongue is in cheek firmly)?
