    The latest I heard was Kansas State was leading to sign him. Last year they paid Illinois transfer Coleman Hawkins around $2 mil and he didn’t come close to earning that much. So they must have plenty of cash to offer. NC State gave Haggerty and his agents an ultimatum and he didn’t accept...

    1999 - 2000 Basketball Team Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony

    I agree. I was there and we were better than Wisconsin, Florida, and of course UNC. I really think we could beat Michigan State if we played really well. It was my 1st final four and my last, but it was fun to experience atmosphere although from my seats, you had a much better view on TV.

    The problem in today’s environment is if he does pan out and has a great year at Tulsa, we won’t be able to keep him, like we did with Jordan.

    Mid-Majors, can they win in the NIL world?

    Some years back, before the NCAA tournament expanded the number of teams playing in it, the NIT was the most prestigious tournament. I can recall watching the NIT when I was a very young teenager in the early 60’s. Providence was the dominant team back then, with Len Wilfong and Vinnie Ernst.

    Not to Austin but I was at the Final Four in Indianapolis. I had hoped to see Tulsa there but had to watch UNC instead. Had a nice chat with John Thompson and Tubby Smith. Great time. I doubt Tulsa will ever get that close to a Final Four again unless Chris donates $50 mil so we can buy...
