3 Titles but also only what 3-4 Sweet 16s in the same 10-15 years?

If you are basing it on titles on, sure, they make the case. And, of course, I'd expect that to be the only metric you'd use.

So you are a clock(nm) - DevilsAdvocate MU - 10/2 09:59:27

As someone who is seldom right on predictions - tjwheeler UI - 10/2 10:09:27

I recall you thinking Groce and Underwood were good hires(nm) - FIJItiger MU

- 10/2 09:23:21

I recall you wanting BU over CM. - tjwheeler UI - 10/2 09:34:03

No that was me - wu-tangtiger MU - 10/2 09:38:24

It was Fiji too. He put BU ahead of CM. - tjwheeler UI - 10/2 09:38:54

That was for the MU job, much different scenario - FIJItiger MU

Twisting twisting twisting - tjwheeler UI - 10/2 09:47:57

I was talking about the Illini job, not MU. What a terrible - FIJItiger MU

- 10/2 09:35:42

So yes you were wrong. (nm) - tjwheeler UI - 10/2 09:37:38

No, you thought he was going to be a good fit at Illinois - FIJItiger MU

- 10/2 09:40:55

Are you really going to make me link your post? - tjwheeler UI - 10/2 09:41:59

My position has always been consistent and transparent(nm) - FIJItiger MU

- 10/2 09:46:48

And you were wrong. (nm) - tjwheeler UI - 10/2 09:47:38

He does have a .222 conf winning %, pretty impressive(nm) - FIJItiger MU

- 10/2 09:49:58

Which is unrelated to you being wrong(nm) - tjwheeler UI - 10/2 09:50:20

- 10/2 09:50:49

LOL! Where did you rank BU and CM in the coaching search? - tjwheeler UI - 10/2 09:51:41

Seems impossible that you are still confused about - FIJItiger MU

- 10/2 09:53:08

Such a fragile ego(nm) - tjwheeler UI - 10/2 09:53:23

That isn't the limitation that's causing Underwood to fail * - FIJItiger MU

- 10/2 09:55:51

No, just yours(nm) - tjwheeler UI - 10/2 09:58:17

Let's review, shall we? - kmawv8 MU - 10/2 09:15:56

Nah, I predicted tOSU or if a better program offered.(nm) - tjwheeler UI - 10/2 09:36:30

Anyone and everyone could have predicted he - FIJItiger MU

- 10/2 09:28:26

You try so hard.(nm) - tjwheeler UI - 10/2 09:39:21

HEY MAN SANTOS IS HURT! HE IS A GENIUS! (nm) - TheWildcat STL - 10/2 09:17:41

wait, you're calling tOSU a blueblood in basketball? (nm) - kmawv8 MU - 10/2 08:52:27

Yeah, their last 10-15 years is impressive. - tjwheeler UI - 10/2 08:59:21

They are in the B1G. There aren't any of those - FIJItiger MU

- 10/2 09:21:40

So lame. (nm) - tjwheeler UI - 10/2 09:34:21

There is no one in the Big 10 that compares with Kentucky, - TheWildcat STL - 10/2 09:36:05

Louisville huh? UCONN huh? - tjwheeler UI - 10/2 09:37:06

In the last 15 years UCONN has 3 national titles. - TheWildcat STL - 10/2 09:45:14

And, it's a question of metrics. - tjwheeler UI - 10/2 09:47:25

Blueblood'ness is not measured by Sweet Sixteens(nm) - FIJItiger MU

- 10/2 09:51:51

Your metric isn't the only one. - tjwheeler UI - 10/2 09:52:22

Apologies, thought you were seeking the correct answer(nm) - FIJItiger MU

- 10/2 09:53:40

I accept your apology. - tjwheeler UI - 10/2 09:54:55

How about Final Fours? They also beat Ohio State in that - TheWildcat STL - 10/2 09:47:56

BTW, UCONN has 1 more sweet 16 than tOSU in the last - TheWildcat STL - 10/2 09:48:45

Okay, I might be wrong about UConn. I have no problem - tjwheeler UI - 10/2 09:50:07

Do you want to try Louisville? It doesn't get much better - TheWildcat STL - 10/2 09:53:13

Sure. I'll happily admit it if I'm wrong. - tjwheeler UI - 10/2 09:54:12

Sounds like we agree now. Ohio State isn't a blue blood (nm) - TheWildcat STL - 10/2 09:54:41

Sorry, but UConn qualifying doesn't mean tOSU isn't(nm) - tjwheeler UI - 10/2 09:55:18

Pssst, you have to win a title since Kennedy was shot - TheWildcat STL - 10/2 09:56:16

Who says that's the metric?(nm) - tjwheeler UI - 10/2 09:58:35

Everyone with a brain because no one outside of you, - TheWildcat STL - 10/2 10:03:13

How have I not previously noticed you - tjwheeler UI - 10/2 10:08:43

I care way more about exposing you as the moran that you - TheWildcat STL - 10/2 10:14:48

If being wrong equates to being a moran... - tjwheeler UI - 10/2 11:12:38

Lol! UCONN has how many titles in the last 15 years? (nm) - TheWildcat STL - 10/2 09:43:00

Its still a major conference, just in decline. Not lame (nm) - FIJItiger MU

- 10/2 09:36:01

ah yes, the Fiji test. LOL(nm) - tjwheeler UI - 10/2 09:37:26

Anyone who calls the B1G lame is misguided, and that is - FIJItiger MU

- 10/2 09:41:41

You twist and twist and twist to avoid being wrong. - tjwheeler UI - 10/2 09:42:28

Michigan State would be borderline (nm) - TheWildcat STL - 10/2 09:30:11

In the modern era, but that isn't what that term means(nm) - FIJItiger MU

- 10/2 09:32:30

While I'd never argue the success they've had - kmawv8 MU - 10/2 09:05:00

Except for one moran from Illinois (nm) - TheWildcat STL - 10/2 09:06:20

And not they're not, moran. (nm) - TheWildcat STL - 10/2 09:00:16

are (nm) - TheWildcat STL - 10/2 08:59:47

What a flamer post(nm) - MidMoBaller4Life MU - 10/2 08:26:11

Are you rejoicing in Santos injury?(nm) - TheWildcat STL - 10/2 08:15:15

Of course not. - tjwheeler UI - 10/2 08:15:55

Coming to a rival message board to brag about predicting - kmawv8 MU - 10/2 08:56:37

A rival message board? - tjwheeler UI - 10/2 09:00:20

The point is you're not on an Illinois board bragging - kmawv8 MU - 10/2 09:08:19

I think you get bent out of shape too easily(nm) - tjwheeler UI - 10/2 09:34:59

But the amount of time here spends here is also pathetic (nm) - TheWildcat STL - 10/2 09:10:55

138,917 - tjwheeler UI - 10/2 09:35:22

And zero on any Illinois board, moran. (nm) - TheWildcat STL - 10/2 09:36:53

You sure are angry. - tjwheeler UI - 10/2 09:38:24

It's not hypocritical. I am on the sports message board - TheWildcat STL - 10/2 09:46:35

So angry. - tjwheeler UI - 10/2 09:49:12

Do you root for MU? No. So you are on a rival message board. - TheWildcat STL - 10/2 09:06:06

I do. That's been the case for a long time. - tjwheeler UI - 10/2 09:35:53

Well stated kmaw (nm) - TheWildcat STL - 10/2 08:59:28

I think you will battle loneliness throughout your life on - lqf2b8 MU
