Bruce Weber's latest line of BS

[ph]

Sure, he'll never come back. But he came here, despite warnings not to. That says a lot to me. And he will do it again somewhere with his Spartans. It may not be BU, but it will be somewhere.

BTW - Anyone think the fact that we (fans, media, university) acting like it was the biggest thing to hit Peoria since sliced bread may have contributed to him not wanting to come back? Sure, it's a big deal when a Top 10 team comes in, but part of me was like 'act like we've been there, and act like we're in their league' as opposed to this sort of shock-and-awe that seemed to be prevalent. Izzo even made comments that it seemed like this was the biggest thing that had happened around here in a while. Just an observation. Maybe next time we should act like we've been there before...because we have. Then we need to prove on the court that we've been there by winning.

It was a great night at Carver though, too bad we couldn't pull it out.

I don't think so. Duke has been there, does that make their crowd dull? Should schools that host College Game Day just have generic students strolling through the quad on the way to their studies? Should Boston Red Sox fans politely cheered :golf clap: when they won? Great sports IS a huge community event. It was great the community supported that great event, and showed there should be a market for more, future great events!

This is classic!
