This ia a football conference, and while football might not be king here, it is very important to every member that is not named WSU. So, in the effort of being a good sport, I am ready to eat some crow and try to learn about each team. So rag on me here in this thread, because I don't want any smack to follow me into a football thread and derail it when I am actually trying to contribute and participate.
A bit of recent history, which maybe you Wichita fans didn't follow so closely. The old Big East (mostly different from this one, with UConn, Cincy and USF being the only holdovers) was absolutely a basketball first conference.
But then members left for P5 conferences, and finally the C7 basketball schools departed, and we sold them the Big East name, and rebranded as the American with the remaining (mostly newly admitted) Big East football/basketball schools.
So yeah, we are absolutely a football first conference. Especially in August. Basketball usually gets rolling in here when conference play starts in January.
Remember, you guys are the ONLY basketball only school in this conference.
No, we are the only non-football school. We are highly competitive in all our other Olympic sports as well as men's basketball. We are not an affiliate member. There is a big difference between an affiliate member and a full member.
In the old Big East, we called the non-football schools "basketball only" a lot. Same thing in the old CUSA when talking about Marquette, Depaul, 6BC, and St Louis. All of those schools played other sports in conference than basketball but the basketball only moniker was used often.
I think Triple A is just referring to yall in that manner and means no disrespect to your other programs.
Exactly.

Shock, you need to go take Aargh's hand and get your ass into the kiddie pool. You two sound like a couple of menopausal women. The cold, kiddie pool water will do wonders for your hot flashes. You won't find CB there, -nope- I'll be holding down the fort bringing basketball related discussion to the resident neanderthals all throughout the fall. Somebody's gotta inject some class into this forum.
See ya in January!

Oh, I'll be discussing basketball, but I won't continue to make myself look like an ass trolling football. This is the conference we were jizzing our pants about, including the Almighty CB, so to continue to dog schools like we have been is stupid. Make fun of ECU for trotting out a non-scholie level team, but to troll them because they are talking about their team on a board dedicated to that is retarded.
Whatever... get your ass in the kiddie pool. You can borrow Aargh's floaties when he's finished using them. Just sit next to the pool and put the hose in your pants while you wait. See you in January!

Reality is decieving. Reality is this: I realized that you and I were doing a lot of splashing in the kiddie pool by our selves and splashing at anyone who happened to walk by. I just had enough of the splashing and got out. I'm sorry that I left you by yourself.
I hear WSU has a good counseling and therapy program but I think they are failing you. You might check out Sarah White. Seems like exactly what you need. Doing it in the kiddie pool is kind of weird.
You're a great guy I'm sure, but make no mistake, "you and I" are not working in tandem on this board; completely different stratospheres. I'm glad you had an awakening though. I wasn't gonna say anything but I did wince more than a few times when you posted... just a little too harsh -sophomoric even. The long game requires a deft touch.

It's undoubtedly something very pretentious and humiliating at the same time. Please no. Of course you want to read it as it will likely provide you with plenty of lolz.
Oopsies! Don't look now but he's back to posting about basketball in the "football season"... SMFH. Amateurs... *sigh*
You'll have to excuse some of the Shocker posters on this board. As embarrassing as it may sound, many are... I guess... a little star struck *gags* and have widely fluctuating emotional states. One moment they are Billy Badasses, the next, they are on their knees looking to kiss somebody's Cheerios Bowl ring.

Paul is talking straight out of his ass. The Cessna renovations President Bardo talked about would have sufficed. We wouldn't have been able to blow Houston away, but we would have competed nicely with what Tulsa has to offer and I'm sure several other AAC schools.

LMAO. You should go back to the MVC board. The mid major level is perfect for trolling abilities.

No Cheerios for you until you've finished all your crow...
NOW GET THE **** BACK IN THE KIDDIE POOL and wait for Aargh to return. We'll see you in January.
