Good line by Barnes…wonder if the second was “are you totally stupid, Lee”????? Or worse!~
"Whomp 'em, Up, Side the Head"!
I really wanted Rick Barnes.
It ranks right up there with “What if Philip had redshirted in 2000?” What if Fowler had acted with even a shred of competence and fired Sendek in 2001 and we’d hired Barnes?
I give Herb credit – he looked dead in the water (lol) out there in the desert, but he has put together what appears to be a good team in a very solid/competitive conference. Another OT win last night and right in the thick of things. Zona is clearly not the same without Brandon Ashley. And I like Barnes, but he hasn’t been beyond the second round in 5 years, and missed it altogether last year. That changes this year.
I was just thinking the other night that I missed the days of the Weave-and-Heave and of being a bubble team at best for the NCAAT.
Oh, wait, I wasn’t.
Herb has made one tournament (or is it 2?) in five or so years.
Well,
I wonder, if you put Ricky Ticky and Herbie in the ring and padded them….who would come out on top.
Maybe Scott Smith could referee the event.
When they play either other, it will be interesting. Personally, I pulling for the Cats….not the devils…
Right now, I more interested in the weather for tomorrow night’s WFU game at the PNC….

One tournament appearance in 7 years, where he was knocked out in the second round. Truly, the man is a coaching powerhouse.
Some dummy on Packpride had the audacity of asking who was HWSNBN was? He thought it was Willie York!

Vintage herb during asu zona game. Tie game, 20 seconds left in game, 7 seconds left on shot clock. Her calls timeout to draw up a good play. Guess what happens next?
Surely not a contested last second heave from 3?

Biggest win for Herb Sendek at #ASU ! Great to see a coach allowed time to build a program!Biggest win for Herb Sendek at #ASU ! Great to see a coach allowed time to build a program!

Yes, it’s great to see a coach get time to build a program, especially after being so unappreciated at NC State after building our program to a solid number three or four in the conference every single year. And then he was unceremoniously fired, and now has had to wander in the desert for seven long years.
And here, finally, he’s accomplished a win over the #2 team in the nation. What more could there be in the sports world? All championships get you is faded banners and dusty old trophies that you have to keep clean. Fie, I say! Give me consistent mediocrity any day.
I know that you know this…but almost nothing you said was true. Just didn’t want any new readers to not get your sarcasm.
I feel for Sean Miller having to battle injuries at this point in the season. Wonder how ASU would’ve done if Arizona was at full strength.
Wait. No I don’t.

You’re right, I forgot to mention he was only given 10 years at NC State. It takes time to build a program!
And we went to 5 NCAA tournaments in a row, and even won a couple of games! Only 64 teams get to participate in the tournament. When has a program like NC State ever experienced such great heights?
