- Thought Conner would get MOP. He had the most consistent 3 games. Certainly some validation to a tough decision he made a couple years ago. Huge cheer when the award was announced.
- Figured we would have 2 on the tourney team. Would have had no problem with Landry, Shaq or Markis. Congratulations Landry.
- No Gregg or Mike at the pep rallys was different. Gregg could always get pretty wound up at these things. Maybe delegation to the assistants is a good option.
- Guys seemed looser this year. Even with slow starts in games 1 and 2 I didn't sense any tension on the floor. The stands, yes.
- Very telling when players 11-14 enter a game with 8 minutes to go and maintain the lead.
- I hope ISUR is invited. They are certainly more qualified than sub .500 P5 schools.
- We could have shot better. Think about that.
- Our first 10 guys return. The other teams should think about that.
- I thought our intro should have been modified to say back to back to back to back.
- Lot of AAC talk in in St. Louis. Would we travel to Hartford Connecticut as well?
- I would suggest the MVC football playing schools target being the best FCS football league they can be. The MVC privates need to look at other alternatives.
- Enjoyed meeting Pogo and talking about other Shockernetters. Were your ears burning?

Where oh where is our T. Boone Pickens. -
Just speaking personally .. yes. I have zero desire to go to St. Louis. It's just really really low on the list of places I like to visit. I'd love to have a reason to go visit the Northeast. It's a change of pace from the midwest.Originally posted by wusphlash View Post -

Doesn't the AAC move the conference tournament around?Originally posted by wusphlash View PostIts a good landing if you can walk away, its a great landing if the plane can be reused the next day.Comment

I hope they get beat at home in their first game in the NIT. Their head coach is a dick, their players are dicks and guess what their fans are DICKS. Screw them!Originally posted by wusphlash View PostComment

Many MVC fans have a similar viewpoint of HCGM, our players, and our fans, but that doesn't stop them from wishing WSU well in the tourney. How about we take the high ground here.Originally posted by bighouse View PostIts a good landing if you can walk away, its a great landing if the plane can be reused the next day.Comment

AAC Touranment Locations:
2014 - Memphis
2015 - Hartford
2016 - Orlando
2017 - Hartford
2018 - Orlando
I believe that initially they had signed a deal to hold 2017 and 2018 in Orlando but due to a conflict it was moved back to Harford for 2017.

Already a huge positive gain that the conference tournament isn't stuck in a location that caters to a few schools. Nice!Originally posted by 1972Shocker View PostComment

Southern Conference Championship Final
If you want to keep your WSU basketball buzz going tonight, East Tennessee State coached by former
WSU Assistant, Steve Forbes and featuring former-Shocker Tevin Glass will be playing for an NCAA bid.
Similar situation to ours in that East Tenn (26-7) is playing UNC Greensboro (25-8) in the finals.
The two teams tied for first in the conference at 14-4 (along with Furman).
Looks like it will be televised on ESPN at 6pm Central.Comment

Hopefully the tournament will come west a little more often if we get in. I would enjoy going to Dallas for example.Originally posted by 1972Shocker View PostIts a good landing if you can walk away, its a great landing if the plane can be reused the next day.Comment

I would love to see it at IBA. It will probably be several years before the new school is allowed to host though.Originally posted by ShockerFever View PostIts a good landing if you can walk away, its a great landing if the plane can be reused the next day.Comment
