Spot on analysis will send you the way of Reynolds and Aldridge.

Develop a goto move to anger your audience and lessen your credibility, and you could be a fixture on ESPiN.

Can anyone explain to me why Wright St.'s mascot is a raider but they have a wolf in the middle of their floor?

this is from the Wiki page:

For many years, Wright State's sports teams used a character called Rowdy Raider as their mascot; a red-bearded Viking with a horned helmet. Recently, the university, seeking a non-gender-specific mascot, adopted a wolf as its mascot.

as an alumnus of wright state i would be happy to answer your question. its the liberals fault!

they were forced to change from a "white male" viking raider to a non-white politically correct mascot so they chose a wolf.

what about if i pimp a conference.

lets say i used to be an official for a certain conference, i then pimp it like no ones business. even amongst that ill have a favorite team.

i think thats a good formula also...

Just got back from the game as well and the Nutter was electric. I have season tickets to OSU basketball and while the Buckeyes draw a bigger crowd to a bigger venue the energy at tonight's game exceeded any OSU home game this year including the Wisky win. I guess that's what 14 years of waiting for a trip to the Big Dance will do for your fans.

After starting 3-5 this season I never thought 23-9 and a trip to the NCAA's would happen. I'm hoping for a place in the Columbus bracket as I already have tickets to those games.

I agree about the atmosphere. I had student tickets at the Schott back when the Buckeyes had Redd and Scoonie. The house was packed and twice the size, and they were playing in some big games. Tonight at the Nutter Center outclassed anything I ever got to see at an OSU basketball game.

Of course, starting to win and being hungry for a winner will do a lot to bring that kind of energy. WSU offers two free tickets to each home game for any student. At the beginning of the season, they were only giving out a couple hundred student ticket's per game. For tonights game, they gave out in excess of 1500 student tickets, and sold even more to students like me for five bucks a pop.

Hopefully they get a good draw and make some noise in the tournament.

I’m not saying we didn’t play hard, they just played a little harder. Ohio State deserves the credit. It was a game they needed to win, and they played that way. They kept their energy level up, and the crowd helped them with that.
