They are better than Wisky now. Wisky turned out to be a paper tiger.

For the NCAAs -- Illinois and M are both mortal locks to 1-seeds. Further, they're both going probably get a favorable 2 (whether it's Houston or Alabama). Iowa is probably a lock as a 2-seed and probably in Baylor's region. Ohio State will either the lowest 2 or highest 3 and playing Gonzaga's region. Purdue is a 4 or 5 and, as such, can't play in the Illinois/M region\, so they'll have to hope for Baylor (despite what Mike's assertions to the contrary, I think Gonzaga is pretty decent). Wisky probably comes in around 6 or 7 and whoever else makes will be 10/11 and unlikely to do much more than get 1 win.
Best case scenario is that Sparty gets the 10 in UAT's region, Sparty pulls off the upset and Alabam"Alum" and the M faithful unite for one two-hour window in their opposition to all things Froot and Sparty.Dan Patrick: What was your reaction to [Urban Meyer being hired]?

Talent,
Penn State is bad. 10-13. I mean they did lose by only 6 to a .500 Seton Hall. And every now and then they beat someone they shouldn’t have, but let’s say they would be 14-9 in the SEC. a 14-9 SEC team has no business in the tourney, either.

And, to be clear, we're comparing Penn State to the likes of Louisville, Georgia Tech and, yes, Seton Hall. Being good and being one of the final 4 in the tournament are two separate things.
I'm not weeping for the NIttany Fucks or the Chitwoods. However, I do think they are as good or better than the teams currently residing around or on the bubble.Dan Patrick: What was your reaction to [Urban Meyer being hired]?

I'd say Illinois is a lock, though. They have passed Michigan as being the best team in the conference, and they've opened a gap. They're very good right now."The stockings were hung by the chimney with care, .. I'd worn them for weeks, and they needed the air"

I still remember, and will never forget, the game where Izzo had Cleaves and the 'flintstones' shooting 3-pointers with a 40-point lead and the starters in the game until about 3:00 to go. And even after that, the "subs" were shooting (and making) three's.
I get it. Michigan was horrible. Brian Ellerbe was horrible-er. They would have had a tough time beating Lansing Eastern HS, much less the Spartans. But I've always believed if you want respect, show respect. If you want to receive honor, be honorable. MSU has never aspired to either of those.

When I have someone on ignore I can't see what they're saying unless I'm quoted.
Since you took the time, I'll respond.
I'd say that they probably acted like I'd expect a group of five freshmen to act, when 15K + are riding them due to their ethnicity, their background and their appearance. In fact, I'm surprised they limited their response to wiping their butts on the "S". If that crap were directed toward me in that situation, I'd likely throw punches. Juwan Howard was mocked by "the izzones" because he was a 'baby daddy'. Rose was derided for being at a house where a drug raid took place. Rose was never arrested, and never charged with anything. But 'the izzones' didn't care about that. It was fair game for mockery. Jimmy King, Ray Jackson and Chris Webber were all singled out by 'the izzones' for their character and appearances. Good stuff, right?
MSU has no room whatsoever to demand honorable conduct from anyone at Michigan. The Dantonio era was filled with horrible sportsmanship, and thuggish behaviors, all of which was celebrated by MSU fans. You demand honorable behaviors from Michigan, but you celebrate dishonorable behaviors of your own fans and players. And we haven't even begun to discuss the sexual crimes committed in the name of MSU by "trusted" staff members.
You're lucky MSU's entire athletic program hasn't been hit with the death penalty. Fortunately for MSU fans, you still have a few friends within the NCAA."The stockings were hung by the chimney with care, .. I'd worn them for weeks, and they needed the air"
