Different fan bases have different narratives. What I stated were two FACTS.

I watched WSU against UK (and a couple of others games) and was definitely impressed. They clearly had a good team last year and I think they'll be really good this year. But I am allowed to be skeptical about a team (as a top 5 lock) that didn't beat anyone with a pulse (other than Dayton) and have their two stars nursing foot fractures. Just like you can scream from the top of the mountain about KenPom all you want.

It's not like I'm saying WSU is a bubble team. I think they are two really good teams in this conference for next year, but I believe UC will be better. And, no, before you ask, I don't think UC will be a top 5 team. I think both are in the 8-12 range.

I decided to look up Cincy's NCAA tournament history and you know what? Maybe you should just keep your opinion to yourself as it relates to overrated/untested teams...

You've enjoyed the luxury of being a member of the Big East for 8 years... 8 years of guaranteed at-large bids to the NCAA tournament with the only qualifier being a .500 league record; 8 years of loaded schedules with every brand name program in the country dropped on your lap; 8 years of a sea of top 100 recruits washing onto your shores every spring with nary a lure being cast; 8 years of sucking on the tit that is a major television contract along with an avalanche of NCAA tourney credits in a league where as many as 8 teams get an invite...

You had all this and you've only "earned" one Sweet 16 since 2005?

Over the last decade our coaching staff has wasted thousands of hours cobbling together a schedule and praying that it'll be enough in the end; we've recruited tirelessly against teams that pay for players, offer hookers, and/or have the huge advantage of conference/sponsorship/NBA affiliation; we've had to go to the alumni to pay for private jets, million-dollar salaries, and facility renovations... we've had NOTHING given to us. Every single accomplishment we've achieved has come through the hard work and generous donations of Shocker Nation.

So you'll forgive me if I tell you to **** off when you complain about us not beating someone when we've beaten a MASSIVELY greater number of someone's than your beloved Bearcats, and we've done it with an INORDINATELY smaller number of opportunities.

3 Sweet Sixteens, 1 Elite Eight and a Final Four since 2006.

That is all.

I think the only obvious thing is why you have been banned from other boards. The only lock I see is you not making it through the season on this either. Do you always have to come off like a complete jack azz? Grow up, your act is tiresome.

When we arrived here it was made clear each school was allotted 1 troll. You don't seem upset about the others on the site. I guess that means he's winning?

You read other Trolls telling people to **** off? That's not trolling its frothing at the mouth baby talk.

I assure you I'm not frothing but the reference to baby talk is frighteningly accurate.





^^^ HuskyU and CB going at it.
