I’ gonna give pushback here.

I’m thrilled. This was the definition of a trap game. We just walloped the #11 team in the country. We were bound to have a let down. If a 20 pt. win against a Div-1 team is disappointing, you must want 40 point wins every game.

You see we’re getting spoiled pretty quickly.

Then I think you deserve pushback, because a 4 pt win at home against Tech isn't exactly "walloping" them.

Biggest threat to this year is oir falling in love with the 3 ball.

I'm sure some smart guy will chime in with "but those guys don't do anything except stand in the corner" or something

But, anyhow, that's pretty amazing

Humrichous has quietly been a damn near perfect role player this year…11& 5 off the bench shooting 38% from 3. Protecting the basketball. Playing solid defense. He deserves more love.

And thus far much better shot selection than last year.

Intriguing. Absolutely love those shoes, but I thought the NCAA standing policy was our school and athletes aren't allowed to any way to exhibit the Chief or they'd enforce postseason bans/hosting events on us. Did they relax the ruling? Or was this an oversight? It would be so NCAA to ban us from the tournament for something like this. Fantastic looking kicks though.

Yeah but the Nike swoosh cuts across and cancels it like a do not enter sign. NCAA approved ✔️

I would love to hear the backstory on this. Can we get a beat reporter or an insider to dig into this?

Wouldn’t ban anyone for the postseason but would prohibit the school from hosting NCAA sanctioned postseason events. So basically we wouldn’t be able to host an NIT game. I don’t believe it would affect a potential football playoff game (should that ever happen) because that tourney is not an NCAA event.

Sorry, I didn’t make myself clear…I meant who designed the shoes? Who made them? Who gave the approval to wear them? There’s not a player on this team that was even alive when the Chief was retired. I’m surprised this isn’t a bigger story!

And I don’t mean I don’t like it. I’m a Chief supporter all the way. I mean, if enough people don’t want the Chief to appear at halftime, okay, whatever I’ll concede that. But it’s one of the coolest logos in college sports.

How about we don’t make it a story? Just roll with it. Is that hard to comprehend?

I roomed at Hopkins 3E, we stood in line at the Hall for two weeks (around the clock on a rotating schedule) to get student tickets for the second semester that season. We gotta AA tickets.
