Big Sky Tournament

[BobcatDel]

So… I’ve got a wild one to discuss.

If Gonzaga can rise out of the dumpster fire that is Spokane, what would it take for the Cats to be the next Gonzaga?

Sprinkle is a highly motivated, goal driven guy. Maybe that's his next thing. Of course, Gonzaga's got some serious money behind them and no football program to feed so there's that.

I had forgotten they don’t have a football program but that certainly would focus more dollars into basketball.

Our neighbors in the state next door have quietly risen up the ranks in the NCAA tourneys through the last decade….yeah maybe that is just small steps but there is no reason that MSU can’t achieve similar levels in the years to come. Both are state schools like MSU.

On another thread I had pointed out that the SDSU women have several first round victories making the 2nd round 3 times and making the Sweet 16 in 2019. The University of South Dakota women have been in the tourney 4 times in last 8 years and have been seeded as high as #8…..they also won the WNIT championship in 2016.

This year the South Dakota women are seeded #10 and SDSU men are seeded #13.

There is no doubt in my mind that Coaches Binford and Sprinkle can continue to lead MSU to some NCAA and NIT tourney wins. Can you imagine how crazy it would be if we had a team in the Sweet 16 or won a NIT Championship. And I know if we stick with it and the Coaches keep building we can do it!

Well…..South Dakota women just knocked off Ole Miss to move on to the Round of 32. As I’ve said before, I think given her success recruiting and on the court, Coach Bin can get us to the point of winning an NCAA game or two.

This gave me goosebumps.

Hope to find a longer video to watch the entire thing.
