What do you have to do to get them to open? I went by on weekdays mid afternoon, and early evening and then about 9:00pm. No cars no life.

Fun Fact: Tulsa beat Alabama to win the 2001 NIT...did you know that? Neither did I. Neither do most people. Can we harbor an inferiority complex about their basketball prowess too?

BTW, you want to revisit your option that Semi will not get drafted??


Oh man you are triggered looking up jokes from 6 weeks ago! It is just a funny Donald Trump quote....

Regarding Semi, at the time he was off the radar. A lot can happen the last 6 weeks of a season, and he played great down the stretch. We will see where he gets evaluated at in May.

Well, Tulsa does have a pretty good bball history and has won the NIT twice and the CBI once. They have 10 NIT appearances to our 3, but since we only care about the NCAA these days...Tulsa also has more NCAA appearances than we have (16 vs 10), although SMU has a better W-L record in the Tourney and did make a Final Four appearance long before the field grew to 64/68. Does that trump Tulsa's Elite 8 appearance in 2000? BTW, the NIT was THE TOURNAMENT once upon a time. Tulsa is a good bball conference mate as they are usually pretty competitive.
