Uh, no. Do I need to remind you of when they destroyed Mizzou at home last month? They can beat good teams there and a win against UT is certainly possible.

And what Doc Sadler take? That he's an incredible x's and o's coach but a horrible recruiter? Isn't that everyone's take on him?

Also, as I pointed out to you, he's actually saying nothing much different than I did about CU.

And you still are assuming I am saying they can't. This all seems very hard for you so let me try again.

I am not saying they can't.

I am saying they won't

No matter how many strawmen you try to prop up and dramatic things you put into the conversation (HE IS TAKING THAT AS THE GOSPEL) that is my take.

And as cute as this "what if" exercise is I won't forget about how silly you were when Colorado is in the NIT.

[KC_Connection]

Again, I'm going to ask you, why are you arguing with me about this stuff? What's the point? Do you really hate CU or NU or something and have a need to completely write them off this year?

Maybe you're just being your regular Zachish self, but it's not like I've ever said a bad word about MU's basketball program, so I just don't get it.

What happens is a team like Colorado or Nebraska plays Kansas close and THEN praise is heaped upon them.

Hey, you are the one that said Nebraska was going to the tournament not me. I have read that book before. I know how it ends.

I don't hate either of them. And this isn't personal. I know you think this is personal because I got your rep comment that I am sure was written through the sniffling...all I said is IMO Colorado is done. You disagreed and responded...there is back and forth going on.

I honestly don't see what the big deal is. Your treatment of MU has nothing to do with anything (to me at least)

Why write off a team when they still have an obvious chance with a great opportunity at home?

No matter how many strawmen you try to prop up and dramatic things you put into the conversation (HE IS TAKING THAT AS THE GOSPEL) that is my take.

Dude, you've been propping up strawmen about me all over this argument (that CU is going to make the tournament, that I think Doc Sadler's NU is a good basketball program). Please stop.

And as cute as this "what if" exercise is I won't forget about how silly you were when Colorado is in the NIT.

This would make sense if I had said they would make the tourney. But I didn't.

Because KU IS really good, dumbass

Even the smartess rival fan can admit we are consistently a powerhouse year in and year out. We are three years removed from a title and always contend. 22 straight years with 23 plus wins. Teams like MU and KSU can't and will probably never in my lifetime be able to say this for themselves. Sucks to be you guys.

Because I don't think they do.

Someone else has a different opinion than you and you seem to be having a lot of trouble with it.

What kind of mental gymnastics does it take for one to think my point is that KU is not good.

This thread has been lots of fun today.

But they're not done if they get a huge win. If you would have read Brennan's post (the guy you cited as evidence), you would have realized that.

I honestly don't see what the big deal is. Your treatment of MU has nothing to do with anything (to me at least)

And I honestly don't see why you needed to turn an innocent comment that wasn't directed to you (like CU still has a chance if they beat UT or KU, which is self-evident) into a two page argument. But whatever gets you off, man.

Except I'm not dealing with opinions here. It's a fact that CU isn't done yet.

Honestly. This is just silly now.

What can I do for you KCC what can I possibly do to convey that it isn't my position that they can't make the tournament. I have written it multiple times and tried to make paragraph breaks for emphasis. I made sure to show you that the thought was coming and it is very important you read it.

So I guess we are at an impasse. What would you do?

What would you do to try and explain to someone who can't for whatever reason understand the concept that it isn't myposition that the University of Colorado can't make the tournament. It IS my opinion that they won't make the the tournament.

Maybe get someone else to read your posts for you?

Maybe....I dunno. I am out of ideas. All the best to you in your journey to understand the most basic of ideas.

I'll only heap praise on a team if they deserve it. NU played very well in Lawrence, but outside of that, I haven't seen that much out of CU or NU this season in-conference. That said, both could still very well make the tournament with an elite win, so I'm not writing them off yet.
