This team has to be cursed. Allen out mid-game with a knee injury. Mitchell out. Wade out. Harden with a broken finger. No matter who they have or who they get…can’t. Stay. Healthy.

Their trophies still have lead in them.

Doesn't fit the "Diebler can't coach" narrative that some like to push here at all.

Also, let's be real, this team HAS improved. They were neck-and-neck with a bad ND team in November, and they looked dead in the water after losing against a bad Pitt team in December. They have lacked a top-tier big man and it shows sometimes. After the Pitt loss in particular it looked like they weren't going to be tough enough in the frontcourt to make the tournament. Yet they have grown and shown more fight, particularly in going after rebounds.

Mobley started the season not playing particularly well & has blossomed into the type of offensive weapon that you'd hope for him to be. Chatman sat the bench because of his defense, one game he committed 3 fouls in just 1 minute, but he has grown into being a solid bench player. Bynum is a true freshman who went from bench player to starter and has helped the team immensely. Njegovan went from being a guy who barely played last season to a guy who's actually helping provide some solid minutes as backup big man. Tilly has grown into playing against stronger and tougher competition. Bruce has taken a step forward individually even as the team around him has stepped up. They haven't even had Noel for most of the Big Ten season, have battled injuries causing 3/4 of their top scorers to miss conference games, and yet they're in the thick of the hunt for the NCAA tournament. While many have not seen this team as a product of a good coaching job, I would disagree.

McGuff better improve in the recruiting category asap. Missed out on the#1 player in eve country and her teammate, both from the Spire Academy, here in Ohio for 2026 and ended up I think 10th, I be the B1G overall. That's pathetic.

If he misses out on Juni Mobleys sister at Big Walnut, I'm not going to be quiet about it.

The girls could do a lot to keep his seat chilly by showing our in the B1G and national tournaments as well as portal additions.

Coach Steele pushed over the Western Michigan DJ's speaker and damaged it during the recent game. He has since been fined and apologized.

Not considering OKST believes he can win it this year...

I totally agree with you on that. There is no question Okie State believes he can win it all this year. My observation is more along the lines with what is the point of it other than Jax’s personal goal of winning an individual title? For instance, were they initially redshirting him to get acclimated to the college world (he should be finishing up his senior year of high school), and to save him to contend for a team title next year? But maybe they have heard through the grape vine that this 5 years to wrestle rule is a done deal, and that he’ll get an additional 4 years regardless after this year? I understand that this is as much of an individual sport as it a team sport, so I am wondering if Okie State just decided to let him fly knowing they will have 5 years of him wrestling vs waiting a year to where their studs round into shape and could potentially be competing for a team title too. I have no idea, just spit balling.

To that point, and if this ruling does come down, Mendez would have a case for a 5th year. He should get it too imo.

Going back and comparing Auburn to Miami, I don't think either one should be in as an at-large, unless Auburn makes a run to the SEC title game. Auburn has already lost 14 games and they need to win a lot more to make up for that. Obviously Joe Lunardi feels Miami is the better choice.

The Dispatch had a nice article interviewing Dennis Hopson, who's turning 61(!) this year, on Bruce approaching his scoring record. Hopson plans to attend the IU game to (hopefully) congratulate Bruce in person.
