Yeah an extra benefit of moving to the AAC was Wichita avoided the baton transfer to Loyola.

MVC final was 6th highest rated so Marshall’s wife insulting players and coaches would’ve made the rounds.

Not surprised to see Stickboy over here. Last year he was everywhere consumed with jealousy of UC, UH, & Loyola.

He'd promptly run to his board for validation when his insecurity wasn't well received.

UConn is the flagship of the AAC (or at least one of them), and their revenue has fallen off so much that they are talking about cutting programs. A line of note is the loss of TV revenue to the tune of $6.8 million (currently $1M down from $7.8M)

Plus they are about to lose all of the NCCA tourney credit cash that the teams who left the old Big East forfeited when they went to the ACC. The obvious answer is to drop football. Doubt it will happen.

Your team hasn't aged well.

You just got smacked around by a team younger than you who is going through the exact same rebuilding process you are, so no excuse for youth or a "rebuilding year" with this past result.

Wichita has fallen HARD, and it's hilarious to all of us over here.

A better comparison would be us next year to USF this year. We lost Shamet at the end of March, Lomax in mid-March, Reaves in mid-April, and up until mid-November we thought we’d have Teddy Allen. Three of those players would be the best PG on this year’s team and Gregg’s teams are completely lost without a PG. The other averaged 7 PPG as a freshman in the Big XII. A lot of things had to go wrong for us to be this bad.

We've fallen so hard that we are only SLIGHTLY BETTER than every single team in the MVC per the NCAA NET instead of way better. So rough.

Yea we suck this year. We suck worse than we have in 10 years .... yet are still better than every team in the Valley. Definitely should be something you are laughing at. It's good to laugh at yourself.
