MGoPodcast 5.21: Cakewalking

TEXAS/WOFFORD

Discussion about whether cakewalk is appropriate. Cakewalk eventually approved. Jordan Morgan had a man's game. Texas rebounded everything else. Stauskas giggles. Michigan and making you zone because you're out of ideas.

TOURNEY BUSINESS

We cannot believe we didn't pick Dayton to do things given that we laughed at the idea of OSU as tourney sleeper and openly plead for Syracuse to be bracketed with Michigan. Otherwise, kind of on point: UConn, Baylor, and Tennessee outperform seeds and Wichita State is victimized by the loaded half of their bracket.

Twitter and college sports are such an awful combination.

No sane, decent adult tweets at high school and college kids, so the only people these guys ever hear from are lunatics like "Trey" or fans of their team's rivals.  Morgan's a smart guy who probably realizes that, but I bet it messes with a lot of other kids' heads.

Lunch_TREY, if you're reading this, please punch yourself in the balls on behalf of all of us.

If so the tweet would have won the internet.  Instead it was a Troy MFing Kirby type dude.  Still funny because I have shouted similar if less profane things at Morgan for several years.

Lunch Trey can't dunk on an 8 foot hoop yet calls JMo a "pussy".  I'm glad J-Mo can use it for motivation, because it's a lot of things that are wrong with the world all wrapped up into one.

WSU played a schedule of mostly tomato cans.  They didn't deserve to be a #1 seed.  They turned a 13-18 tomato can into a 13-19 tomato can in the draw of 64.  Then, they lost to a #8 seed full of freshmen and sophomores.  

WSU would be a .500 team in the Big Ten.  Minnesota could have done just as well with WSU's #1 seed.

That's ridiculous. WSU would be far more than a .500 Big Ten team.  The fact that they lost to an extremely talented Kentucky team doesn't mean they weren't deserving of a one seed.

You do realize that last year, they beat top-seeded Gonazaga and second-seeded Ohio State, made it to the Final Four, and nearly knocked off Louisville in the national semifinal?

.....and yours truly CONTINUES to worry, what the FOCK we're gonna do without Morgan and McGary....   I don't see a succession plan, I really don't,  unless Beilein has a recruit like a Zimmerman up his sleeve.

A bunch of Shi-Tzus and Chihuahas barking ferociously at a 130-lb Presa Canerio, but from the safety of the sofa in front of the living room window.
