It was real, it was fun, but it wasn't real fun...

Also, whenever I see WCC I think of Wichita Country Club, an exclusive invitation only club located right across the street from Charles Koch's property, you know the guy worth 43 billion dollars who helped pay for our arena's renovation?

And since we are on the topic of exclusive country clubs. Did you know that Crestview Country Club, one of the seven or so exclusive private country clubs in Wichita was originally located on Wichita State's campus? Wichita State's Marcus Welcome Center sits on the site of the former Crestview Country Club clubhouse that Wichita State purchased in 1969. Of course the Arnold Palmer redesigned golf course still stands as one of the many treasures contributing to the aesthetic beauty of Wichita State's campus.

Wow, just read the thread. This is some of the worst trash talking I have ever heard. I mean it really wasn't even that entertaining.

Creighton has been more successful than wichita over the past 20 years, even Wichita fans agree with this, but since you brought up the "look at where were going" statement........

Both programs are headed in the right direction. I foresee many NCAA games played by both teams over the next decade.

I mean, they can't be playing in front of 15,000 fans and yet still not be able to afford a measly $80,000 chartered flight right?

I think the reason CU doesn't fly is because the pilots are afraid they won't get off the ground with all the hardware they tote around...

LOL, you almost sound like a fan of a school that has actually done something. Mr|RPI|of|38... and 0 MVC tourney titles in STL. WSCC, A Community College famous for March choke jobs, conspiracy theories, clock replays and being third in your own state. Wake us all up when you actually win in March, until then have fun looking at your skyline of grain silos. If CU goes, maybe WSCC will have a chance at winning but I doubt it. the Valley is tougher than you think.

Hmmm... I've never understood the community college bit. Wichita State is a national research university with many PHD programs while Creighton is listed only as a regional/master's college. If it is supposed to refer to Wichita's urban location, then I would say, "pot meet kettle". And boy is BJ-ville in the heart of "Compton". The crime statistics are alarming - especially when you compare them to Wichita State.

Please don't even try to compare the academics between the two. The only reason we are ranked under regional (#1 btw for like the last decade) is because we have a small undergrad population. Not only do we have Phd programs, we have doctoral programs in medicine, law, dentistry, pharmacy, PT/OT and an MBA program.

we don't get the sCUm bit either... Makes us even eh? The WSU fans that came up to Omaha (for your arse kicking) were really cool to chat with, nothing like the WSCC trolls that hang out here.

You continue to prove just how little knowledge you possess. If you're trying to paint Wichita in a positive light, at least get your facts straight. Wichita Country Club is decent but it doesn't even come close to being the nicest course in the area. That place isn't even in the same league as Flint Hills or Prairie Dunes. Yes, I know Prairie Dunes isn't in Wichita but it is close. I've played all three courses and Golf Digest backs me up too. Stop the mental midget routine. It is getting old.

Ouch! You really got me thereeee HERP DERP!

In your desperate attempt to one-up me, you lost complete sight of the point I was making. Let me help you out. When one of the BJ tools says WCC, it reminds me of Wichita Country Club, one of the most exclusive golf clubs in Wichita. Did I say anything about slope ratings, "nicest", newest, whatever? It is one of the most exclusive and is located right in the middle of the wealthiest square mile of Wichita, Ks.

Flint Hills, a fairly new and beautiful golf club was built by Tom Devlin, the man of which our court is named after (Devlin Court). He must be around a billion dollars in net worth by now. His course originally sold founder memberships for around 100k each. They all sold out nearly immediately. However, Flint Hills is located S.E. of Wichita. It's almost in the middle of nowhere. The land was marvelous which is why they chose that location. There is of course an affluent residential development built around it. Nevertheless, WCC's members are made up of old money and I would suspect the initiation fee is still very close to Flint Hills if not exceeding it.

Prairie Dunes? OMG.... that course isn't even exclusive at all. It is a marvelous layout on a great piece of land with lots of rich history, but it is not a country club in the purest sense of the word. It is more like a public golf course. And what the hell does Prairie Dunes have to do with Wichita? It's located in Hutchinson you BJ/DB.

Cold wasn't part of the classic movie "Picnic" filmed in Hutchinson, KS?

I think the grain elevator scenes originated from Hutch.

Oh I wouldn't. Wichita State is a public national university, while BJ U is a podunk lil' private school located right smack dab in the middle of Omaha's harshest crime district. We have two lil' private schools located in Wichita that remind me very much of the U of BJ - Friends University and Newman. One is catholic and one is protestant. Both have tuition pricing very similar to BJ and both offer the small-time feel of a tiny private college albeit in better locations than BJ.

Wichita State has many nationally recognized academic programs some of which include engineering, which I would assume brings in more revenue for WSU than all of BJ's graduate programs combined. NIAR (national institute for aviation research) is #2 in aeronautical research spending and is the largest university aviation R&D institution in the nation. We do "top-secret" work for the government, NASA, and numerous other aviation organizations. Many of our graduates have gone on to work at NASA.

We also have a nationally ranked Entrepreneurship program (#11), a nationally ranked business college, competitive performing arts, psychology, a very unique forensic sciences (CSI) program and extremely popular physicians assistant program.

Of course those that are aware of the history of Wichita State know that our medical school was stolen by the University of ChiKUns, and we were denied a dental program by.. wait for it.. the University of ChiKUns.

Koch Industries is one of the most selective employers in the country and hire a ton of Ivy League employees. You will find Koch Industries to be absolutely stacked with Wichita State alums. A Finance, Economics, or Accounting degree from Wichita State is both rigorous and valuable.

As a public school, we will never be the "Harvard of the Plains", but me might just be the best kept secret with regards to bang for the buck in business, medical, and engineering fields of study.
