Didn't spend a lot of time on it but it appears from a few quick scenarios on mred's site http://bball.notnothing.net/big12.php?sport=mbb
that unless Oklahoma wins out and TCU wins at least two of remaining games, we will not fall to the #8 spot and thus will not be playing on Wednesday in KC.
We should end up anywhere from #5 to #7.

Thanks so much to @Bipolarcy for this one! He has a great story that I'm hoping he'll share below, but here's the setup question:

Have you ever had a random person show up at your door in a very weird situation?

Or, to expand on it, have you received a weird phone call?

I remember receiving a call one time at 3 am asking me if I was a tow company. There was some beeping and stuff in the background. In my half-awake stupor, I said "wrong number" and hung up. At the time, my husband worked at a hospital, and I was still in that ridiculous state where you're not awake so you're not thinking rationally at all. So somehow I convinced myself that either he was cheating on me with a nurse or someone on staff, and that they'd broken HIPAA rules and looked up my number in my patient chart to call me and stalk him. I got good and stewed up about this wild leap in logic until I fell back asleep.

A few days later I was driving home from Des Moines with a friend, and telling her about this situation and how I hadn't been rational, but was it possible, etc. I was explaining what had happened - when the truck for the tow company the caller had asked me if I was drove up right beside us... and I saw that their number was one off from my cell.

Do you have a "safety" or "comfort" TV show that you either watch when you just want a familiar story, or that you've rewatched so many times that you know it by heart?

I think I've rewatched all of Parks and Rec at least four times. Scrubs, The Office, Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee - I have seen some episodes maybe a half dozen times each, and I really don't watch much TV at all. I will usually maybe have a new show that I'm watching here and there as I get time, but don't want to be watching it if I'm busy doing other things. I can turn on my "comfort" shows while cleaning something up or checking my phone and not miss anything.

Do you have any comfort or "safety" shows? How did they become that for you - how many times have you watched them?

You may remember him for his bright orange shoes, his floppy highlight hair, or his banked in three pointer against us in Austin. It appears the big man is taking a leave of absence from UT at the very least. His dad went off on Twitter about Beard apparently too.

Enjoyed podding with Coach Fennelly today. Enjoy!

2022 -- Shantavia Dawkins (Southwest Academy, Ontario): Her team plays in the top-level Ontario Scholastic Basketball Association (OSBA), which is a bloodbath, as most (if not all) of the schools are sports-focused prep schools. Her team, which also has top-level recruit Lemyah Hylton (Arizona commit we recruited) and Keira Spencer (who we have offered), is 8-9 in their pool, which gives you an idea of the level of competition. Stats are very incomplete. Pool play is almost done (and Southwest Academy is done with their games). There is some some sort of tournament in March, but I don't know any details -- given the short schedule, I'm guessing all teams will participate.

Many of our players are showing the same body type - strong, wiry - likely a combination of recruiting the same characteristics and their strength and conditioning coach. I noticed improved strength and condition after Baier's first year and I think she's made her mark.

Dude was a 4-star, showed out at Elite 11, big boy, big arm, fast & athletic, he's not played a ton, but has had some big plays in mop-up duty. Why aren't people outside of Ames talking about him. I feel like if he was next man up at Texas or Oklahoma, we would be sick of hearing about him by now...

Am I missing something?

figured it was time to start this seasons iteration of this thread

New pod episode here -

I don't remember if this has been discussed, but it's nice to see some movement in the right direction.

What are the chances that Ashley uses her Covid year and comes back next year? The team is GREAT, she is having a fabulous year and you hear how connected the team is. The latest mock draft I saw did not have her in the first round of the WNBA draft so making a team could be tough. I thought I heard she has some class work to finish up to graduate so going over seas next year would be a challenge. We have seen other players announcing that they are returning (Lee @KSU, Prince @ Oregon, Cinziano @ UI are a few) so would Ash decide to do the same. Maybe a "One More Year" chant from the students on Sat to show she is loved.
