March Madness

[Scott Malkinson]

Oakland got hosed on that last out of bounds play in regulation.

And the guy from Texas that threw the Vol down should have been run.

Both reviewed, don’t know what the zebras were looking at. When the talking heads even see it the other way along with the guest official, something is amiss.

Touched NCST finger and ball went out with 2+ seconds... nothing changed

Oakland's coach has been in that seat for 40 years? Hope Maggard doesn't know that....

He has 8 NCAA appearances. 4 each at D1 and D2. Think the 4 at D1 is over 26 years.

Is Oakland’s history and tradition founded mostly in a death penalty team?

And do they have the foundation of 76-80 with Andrew Toney the 8th overall pick to build off of?

Hey, you are correct. That is 44 years ago.

Then you have The Fish with Elfred Peyton and Shawn Long. Wow, don’t tell me the winningest coach in Sunbelt history may be responsible for 1/3 of Louisiana’s basketball history and tradition.

Maybe I’m missing something over the past 50 or so years.

So don’t say we shouldn’t expect to be in the Big Dance every other year. ...

Low expectations for a sport allow mediocrity to be viewed as success.

And don't forget any NIT appearance before 1985 would be a March Madness invite today.

ps Under the guise of stability during APR struggles, former Martin Hall AD David Walker did the program long term harm by keeping Robert Lee too long.

Yeah...how dare Beryl Shipley try to help black athletes attend school when the racist Louisiana board wouldn't allow athletic scholarships.

You are correct. Let’s have a couple more years of success then another death penalty. It would be a calculated risk reward program.

Well...once again you show yourself as either a troll or a complete moron. Either way, have fun. Never any sense in trying to someone of this manner.

Making it personal is always a sign of defeat and weakness. You have arrived.
