Wow. Memphis has a slickster running their program, who is certainly bending if not breaking rules. They will have their UMass-like come-upance at some point in the future.

However, at least they have accomplished something. Mizzou has never tasted a Final 4, so their fans should really STFU until they accomplish something on the hardwood. This is like Rutgers football fans pounding their chests about how dominate their football team has become and yet they never even won their conference. Or maybe this is like Pitt basjetball fans who think they are the equal to UConn or Syracuse in the Big East, but not only have they never been to the Final 4, I just read that they have never beaten a team seeded 5 or better in the history of the tournament. Can that be true???
