You've been hesitant to hit the panic button over on 11th street. It's probably time now, right?

No one who’s seen them play could argue with 197. That’s an ugly attempt…and especially so as a third try.

I'm a TU homer. I will be there Sunday. That said, this isn't good enough. The issues probably go a lot deeper than a malcontent athlete in the post transferring.

Anyone bet against Wojcek being given a one-way ticket to anyplace in two years? Last year they had 20 wins, mainly against small schools that usually play 6-man (sic) basketball in a girls' conference. Now those teams are ranked higher and are defeating the Hurricane (sic.)

TU has only had three instances of coaches not meeting expectations since the hiring of Nolan; J.D.'s volatile personality meltdowns assuring the chasing away of good recruits and mediocre won-loss records, Phillips' inability to recruit anyone capable of playing Div.1 bball and now poor Wojcik who had to start from scratch and now seems to be paying the price for having no depth. I knew the present program was in serious trouble when he was given an extension for a season of beating some pretty weak teams, in fact the weakest non-conf schedule I can ever remember and I've followed TU for 41 years. Not a realistic appraisal of his ability at all.

John, my friend, Christmas has come early, what with the news that the Prince of Nerds is going on holiday. Here's where he's probably going: Branson for three weeks.

Never before in sports broadcasting history has anybody as horrible as Everett been given a national microphone. Obviously, the good ones don't want to do Sportscenter, too much work, the good ones want to specialize. So what we have left are parodies -- those two together, it's like two triangle players from the high school band coming back to haunt you.

I have long campaigned to have ESPN list the names of the anchors on the upcoming shows so I won't tune in and see Everett folding his hands just so and yelling what he would yell if only he were cool.

Getting back to TU basketball, these are great points, anybody can win 20. What matters is the size of the crowd. Tournaments. It would seem to be time for a statement of some kind from TU administration about what is expected from this day onward. It is all about recruiting. Unfortunately at TU, there is no margin for error. Coaches are paid tons of money to win. Period. Getting mopped off the floor by ORU and OU: not good. Or is it? Hello? Anybody important out there watching? Thinking?

Picker, are you trying to start over with a clean(ed) slate?

Perhaps the same buffoons that show up on 11th to watch Number 197 will buy tickets to the "Can't Spin This Bowl as Anything But What It Is" Bowl in Mobile Alabama. They will be giving tickets away for a canned food item at every street corner. Buy a Cadillac, finance through GMAC, and get 4 free tickets to the........oh Heck, I forgot the name of it again.........

"These nobody's"...as in the nobody's that spanked OU??

Mr. Picker, we don't hate OU.....It's easy to see that they are better than TU but that's not saying much.....
Honestly, I don't think OU has any chance of making the NCAA tournament either and ultimately that's how ever team is judged in college basketball.
HEY BUBBA, Please make a call to Tubby Smith!!!! When Kentucky was kicking him out last year we should of made room for him at TU then.....

NP, you forgot one other boring activity, watch bowls.
