They definitely have a better coach than us! Chris Beard is impressive. They lost their 2 best players this year and all they did is get better and go to the Final Four and maybe more. Similar talent level to us with a lot of 3-star recruits and a couple 4 stars. Especially their team last year, very similar to us. Beard went out and got a grad transfer in Mooney who runs the ship for them and isnt afraid to supplement the lockdown D with a few pure shooters. Mick could learn a lot from his approach but we know he never will.

They have also made the elite 8 and final 4 in the last 2 years. While winning the big 12 regular season. We have lost to Iowa and Nevada in the first 2 rounds.

Tell that to the kids that don’t get to play in the tournament.

Can’t believe Bruce Pearl didn’t start the same 5 in the second half that he did in the first.... said something about in game adjustments. Watching mick coach so long I forgot you could do that.

Watching Pearl Vs. Cal coaching for the final four had me so thankful for a coach with no recruiting violations......

And thankful for a coach who guarantees u.c. fans will not be watching his team past the first weekend... I mean who could handle that stress.

I see we're at that point in the year where fans battle it out to determine who can be the most sardonic.

Is it really any worse than when we have the same couple posters seeing who can slurp and suck the best while patting each other on the back for their fandom? At least some of these posts are funny
