I never had a problem with VCU getting a bid. UAB, Penn State and USC angered me. Clemson dancing despite not being able to claim a single quality win bothered me. Tennessee and Villanova getting in based on their November/December resumes despite being **** in February/March frustrated me.

I think there are some valid criticisms of CU's play - both on Alabama's last possession (go ahead shot) and CU's last possession (miss by Burks).
Be that as it may - the REAL coaching will have to show NEXT YEAR because the team that won 24 games this year will be completely gone next season. No Burks, no Higgins, no Knutson, no Relphorde - basically the entire scoring punch of this team is gone.
If Boyle can get next year's team to a .500 record that will be a pretty impressive feat.

I love when folks invoke this one cuz they're usually in the process of telling everyone else how to think at the time.
Of course you have your right to bitch. Others have the right to view the season as largely successful. You focus on the negative, I'll accept the positive and it'll all balance out.
My two cents: CU made enough mistakes too lose that game 20 times over. You can start with Tomlinson throwing the ball away three straight possessions in a miserable first half, Higgens talking a ridiculous shot with Levi wide open in his corner for a three and less than two minutes on the clock. A basket there and CU would have won.

I hate ****ing fans like you, Tad coached well all season, no one is going to be perfect all the time. For all you know there was a play drawn up and Alec free lanced it. He was the go to guy all season, he's a projected lottery pick, the best player we've had at CU since Chauncey, Boyle got the ball in his hands for the last shoot. Hell our best 2 players took our last 2 shots what more do you want from a coach other than to give his best players the chance to win the game for him?
Every time we've lost all season you come in here and spew your garbage, this was the best we've seen in 15 odd years and your going to come in here and spray that garbage after a deep run in the NIT where our best player took the last shot? GTFO, go back to netbuffs.

prob seemed to me that the "hell or high water" AB is taking the last shot, lends itself to a double team and is going to stop his momentum towards the basket with precious little time on the clock. see, the NU-OSU game and OSU-KU games in the Big XII tournament. but, i don't like this approach (see Butler's game-winning FG v. Pitt, before the FT's and fouls). but you dance with the one who brung ya.
it wasn't a bad shot, and you watch AB's body language as the shot is in the air....he looks like he thinks he made it.

I'm glad to see that most people are annoyed with this thread's initial comment, because it's absolutely ridiculous.
It's awesome that you support the program by buying tickets, etc. However, learn to be realistic about what you're supporting. This rant reminds me of an over-ambitious parent that yells at his unathletic kid for not being better. The parent might go to all his games, give him a roof over his head, support him in other interests, and be overall a good parent, but...that is no excuse to have unreasonable expectations that cause emotional blowups when things don't go right.
This team fought, they lived up to their potential (NCAA bubble team), they achieved a lot, and they deserve credit...that includes the coach.

wow a tree hugging, kymbaya, faggy liberal calling me a tree hugging, kymbaya, faggy liberal are you the pot or the kettle. So which side of you ass are you talking out of today? Last week you made a post that you are worried about the team losing Burks and now you want him gone because he is a prima donna. I think you spelled bipolar wrong when you created your handle.
we set a record for wins this season. I'm just sayin.
Not much gray area in this post...

I completely agree with this!! With no TO I believe Burks would have taken the ball to the hoop and made something happen. Calling the TO allowed the bama D prepare....not to mention the ball handling snafu by Burks when he was waiting on the screen to be set.
I think we looked off the entire game, for the majority of the game we would walk the ball down the floor and let them setup on defense. If we kept pushing the pace I think we could have beat them easily since they would try to match our pass, but couldn't cut it on the offensive end of the floor.
