More times than not, you'll be right, I think.Please do. Unless there are 4 other undefeated conference champs, I pretty much like either ours or OU's chances of making the CFP w/no more than 1 loss and a conference title.
Truer words have never been typed.ketch, your slipping on your pop culture.
Carrying his team deep into the playoffs as the absolute alpha male on the team.
Was outclassed by KD a year ago in this round.
[/QUOTE][/QUOTE]I guess you forgot that he was the alpha male that won the MVP and championship in 2014. Also KD and Westbrook played equally well last year against Kawhi to say he was outclassed by one player is not accurate. I would argue the refs helped okc as well. I have my avatar for a reason. Spurs are up 3-1 in that series if the refs make the call on my avatar. To say Kawhi was outclassed is comical frankly. Kawhi has already been the MVP in the finals going head to head against the best player in the game in his prime. He doesn't need to prove anything. He has taken his game to new levels even after that MVP. Everybody who follows basketball knows it.
I thought that your original post was fine, but in some of your responses to people's comments it seems like you are sitting down with a bag of popcorn and yelling fire in a theater.In the three-year history of the league, one Big 12 team has made the cut.

It's just my opinion in conversation that the Big 12 is a bad date to try and attend the ball with. At some point, it's going to be a problem.I thought that your original post was fine, but in some of your responses to people's comments it seems like you are sitting down with a bag of popcorn and yelling fire in a theater.
"Back in 2015" as if that wasn't only 17 months ago. A one loss Texas or OU is almost always going to be in the playoffs. Other Big XII schools not so much. The committee has shown it favors the blue bloods.
If the rumors are true and we do go to the BIG 10 the new rivalries we'd get would more than offset OU bit being in the same conference. We've played them before not in the same conference. I'm not one for believing we HAVE to go together.I go back and forth.

The way the game is played in Texas has completely changed what types of players are created.Two different conversations.
Neither is very flattering.

Tim was the leader but in presence only. Kawhi was the lead dog when we needed a bucket. He was MVP for a reason. Not just on offense but defense- making life impossible for the best player in the game[/QUOTE]He wasn't the lead dog on that team, even if he was the best player. That wasn't HIS team.
I meant to dedicate a full section to the living legend. My tremendous error.I am shocked and appalled that there was recognition of the the great Drew Pearson.
So basically Texas needs to get out of the ratchet Big 12 conference soon as possible
II thought the same thing. Your stats are off, although it is hard to use three years worth of numbers because players can declare early for the draft. To get true percentages, you would have to wait until a particular class has completed all of its eligibility, including redshirts, and see what percentage of 5-stars were drafted in a particilar ropundKetch, I may be interpreting this wrong, but from the wording it sounds like rivals rated on average 33.67 5 stars per a year from 2012-2014. which would be a total of 101 five stars over the 3 year period. but when you worked out the draft numbers if looks like you only used 33 total 5 stars versus 101. example: 10 five stars were drafted in the first round. you said 30.30 percent of 5 stars(6.1) prospects were drafted in the first round. would that real percentage be 9.90 percent of 5 stars drafted in the first round? Please let me know if I am wrong.
Probably... which is why we all want out of it. And your analogy of building a mansion in a trailer park is good. But with the places where I think Herman is taking Texas, and you maybe do too based on recent commentary, Texas will again be nationally relevant and very hard to ignore, in spite of the trailer park that sits around us.It's just my opinion in conversation that the Big 12 is a bad date to try and attend the ball with.
