Harper didn't exactly leave the program in good shape. What as there, like 2 returning players or something crazy like that?

I don't know all the details of what JJ walked into, but Rick had to work hard to turn this around to where it is in just 2 years as well.
That's true. The situations could be quite comparable. JJ hasn't made any big splashes and is taking his sweet time building up. Rick has definitely accomplished more in his short time at WKU compared to JJ at ODU, make no mistake about it.
The years kind of blend together over time, but wasn't JJ in the exact same position (NIT Final 4) in the same amount of time? You could even argue JJ's season was better given they were in the at large conversation and got the NIT 1 seed as the first 4. Of course that would change if Stansbury wins the thing.

Yea but look at who ODU beat to get to MSG in 2015, unreal the draw they had, Charleston Southern, Illinois St. and Murray. all at home...WKU still needs to have a good showing in MSG, but beating BC, @USC, @Oklahoma st. is impressive to say the least...Our guys should be prepared one we hit MSG floor Tuesday night win or lose.....Would be interesting to see a gauntlet like WKU has gone to get this far in this NIT, hard to imagine a harder road to make to MSG for a so called "mid major"....
I agree the draw was easier. But, don't get too hung up on the names. Murray State and Illinois State were top 60 teams. Charleston Southern was not good. BC is 75, USC 51, Ok State 59, and Utah 57.

Murray State.
LOFL.
You do realize they went 29-6 and blew out both UTEP and MTSU that year, right? Went undefeated on OVC and lost conference title game by 1. They had this guy name Cameron Payne that plays in the NBA.

If by generally has a good team means wins games against tomato cans then they generally have a good team.
Dude was comparing playing Tomato Can Champ Murray State AT NORFOLK the same as Western playing AT STILLWATER in front of their biggest crowd of the year.

He is just poking fun at Murray. Old Dominion's run to the NIT Final 4 was impressive.

What Freshtop says is true, nice run. Dahbeed is public enemy number one on the Racer board. He has mastered the art of getting under the skin of the Mule faithful.
