I’m a fan of Chris Beard admittedly and want him to have the utmost success, bc he’s a great person/coach and also helps the Big 12. BUT, to a degree as I want our alma mater to be the top dog still.
While 90% of the KU nation was celebrating 15 straight, I was on the other side saying “who cares” - and when are we winning our next natty or making our next final four appearance? Only matters to the quality of a league. Big 12 needs another power and love to see that forming with Tech of late. West Va, Texas, OU, Ostate, Baylor and Kstate have all had their final fours and elite 8 runs this century, but no national title game appearances. Tech was a Culver staying home on defense with 15 seconds left from winning it all.
