Monday Musings
Men's basketball wins a conference game if they win tomorrow that is 2 in a row, if they go to Akron and win that is called a winning streak it has happened before.. We are 9 wins from the auto-extension.
Football still looking for an OC.. Will they go with experience or not? We are all waiting... When does spring ball start?
Didn't see Friday nights attendance number from ypsi-lincoln at the convo, Emoni bates is getting everyones best shots as the lincoln rail spilitters got beat by benton harbor saturday @ GR Union.
Hope tuesday for glow night is a good crowd and gives us an actual home court advantage.
Finally, Bills Hot Dog Stand is open telling us ypsi folks spring is coming.

I think you are hallucinating or just blowing b*ll s*it.
I can't remember anyone in recent times (actually in that last 25+ years) talk of going to the Sweet 16 or at least since Boykins graduated.
The consensus on this forum has been a successful season is making the MAC semis or MAC finals.
I have (yes, me) set the lower bar. I've always said making the MAC semis is 'meeting expectations' for a successful season.
Hosting a first round is 'minimal expectations.'

Compelling sales pitch. I'm sure you'll get a lot of offers!

I don’t recall saying this to you. Hyperbolic duh. But nearly everyone over the last few year have screaming we are on a roll! When the team wins 50% or better of the last half of the season. Saying we told you so, only to fall flat in the first couple of rounds of the tournament.
I realize you are being hyperbolic, but HONESTLY, most EMU fans had modest expectations.
If one says "MAC Finals" one is accused of being a follower of "Sunshine Steve."
Last year was the exception. EMU was selected pre-season #1 in the MAC West. This year are re-building. Everyone knows that, friend and foe.

RE: Monday Musings
My O/T "Monday Musings"
Last night's Iowa caucus is an electoral equivalence to the MBB game in Mt. P. a couple years ago with near record lows and the refs taking I think 8 minutes to review a call.
The wind chill was dropping quickly. Warming up the bus was an effort and the game officials extended things...

Nothing was worse than the Ball St Game refs
