    What did the Viking defense used to say to the offense in the early 70s: just hold them, and we'll take care of things.

    Niko Medved Post Santa Clara Loss

    I think Niko is a heck of a coach. The style of offense he runs is beautiful, and his players are coached soundly to play position defense. That said, I thought the same of Craig Smith, and he didn't get it done at the high-major level. Time will tell with Medved. I'm going to enjoy the...

    Is there anyone who didn't? I think you just have to go for it regardless of distance.

    Lindsey has the look of a southern kid who doesn't want to be out there.

    It's now Kolchak time. Thanks for keeping me company through this debacle, friends.

    Other than this dog of a game, this tournament was great entertainment.

    I like the energy in a lost cause. Serious about that.

    In the parlance of the "love languages" book, your love tank was low going into this new regime, and it didn't take long for that to be exhausted. It's how we're all feeling.

    You're right about that, of course, but the individual players have underperformed their histories (aside from Tyson over last year).

    On paper (preseason KenPom), this was a top-75 roster. That's part of what's so aggravating about this.

    I'm going to say that many nascent programs would love to be us. 50,000 enrollment and that many more alumni than practically any institution, so an enviable pool of potential donors. Being in a large city can be a disadvantage, but we've also seen the advantages in our time. This has been the...

    I will someday visit Greater Palm Springs, but I'm glad I didn't pull the trigger for this tournament.

    My wife just came upstairs from watching volleyball. I told her to avert her eyes because it might change forms. (Simpsons reference)

    Thanks for asking. Yes, we do. Season ticket holders since 1990. Lifetime members of UMAA. Active in our colleges' alumni boards. NIL donors.

    The second-half TV audience might be less than the in-person attendance.

    Thank you. This team will be better by later in the season or I'll eat my hat. Medved will have this program in solid shape before too long, but it's not going to come together overnight.
