Colt Ryan made honorable mention. I take it that his momma is a voting member of the media.
There are three rules that I live by, never get less than 12 hours sleep, never gamble with a guy who has the same first name as a city and never get involved with a chick with a tattoo of a dagger on her body. Stick to that and everything else is gravy!

Of course the answer is 2nd, behind a GREAT Southern Illinois team that should have never been discounted.

Why don't you concern yourself with trying to keep your new coach from becoming the next UMKC assistant instead of rolling your eyes at your perceived failures of a WSU program that waved bye bye to piss ant programs like yours a long time ago. :roll:
