[QUOTE="Roundball Shaman, post: 1295781, member: 627417"] From the OK State U website: “The treasured history of basketball at Oklahoma State University is one of the richest amongst all major programs in college basketball today. Oklahoma State was the first school to claim back-to-back NCAA championships in the sport, and Mr. Henry P. Iba - the architect of those championships - is arguably the most influential coach in the history of the game. With two national championships, six Final Four appearances and one of the game's grandest old cathedrals, Cowboy Basketball is steeped in tradition.” [URL]http://www.okstate.com/sports/2015/3/17/GEN_2014010122.aspx?path=mbball[/URL] Look, everybody wants to feel good about their program. Nothing wrong with that. Maybe Oklahoma does have a lower cost of living and lower taxes. More “tradition” than Illini program? I don’t recall anybody calling Oklahoma the Original Home of March Madness. Let them have their tradition. We have ours. Neither side has to dump on the other. It’s all about the future. And as we all know, WE got NEXT. But we do have a better shade of Orange and a whole lot less fracking going on. [/QUOTE]
