Agreed.  My only assertion was that pressure can sometimes be used as
a motivator.  So long as it isn't unbearable, it isn't necessarily
all bad.

>I mean, if it were so bad,
>Crum wouldn't have been offered that new contract.  

I remember seeing a *lot* of commentary in the Kentucky press about whether 
Crum should've been offered that new contract.  Just like there was a lot of 
commentary about whether Bill Curry was deserving of his contract extension 
in football at Kentucky.  It might not be characterizable as "pressure"
just yet, but it's close.  

>We're pretty much willing

I think that most people are still willing to give him some benefit of
the doubt, but there are rumblings which will only get louder unless he
achieves something remarkable.   UofL fans may be more laid-back than
their UK brethren (and sistern), but they won't wait forever.

Not much doubt about that.

With a combination of Osborne, Rozier, and Morton, not to mention a pretty
decent supporting cast, Cardinal fans would be within reason to expect a 
very very good performance out of Louisville next year.  Crum isn't one to
make promises (unlike, say, Dale Brown, who reportedly promised LSU fans
and officials a couple of SEC championships and national titles during
Shaqs stay), but it would be reasonable.  If he can't deliver, you'll 
really start to hear the moans. 

Sweet 16 appearance, maybe, but it depends on how the team gels over 
the season.

UofL's championships aren't exactly brand new, and it's been a while 
since Crum has gotten anyone really excited about UofL basketball.  The
natives in Louisville are getting restless.  Pitino winning 3 straight
against the Cards by ever increasing margins hasn't helped either.

Want to make a bet about whether UK or UofL will be the *next* state
school to win an NCAA Division I men's basketball championship?   :-)

Here's the list for active coaches, accurate as of the end of last season.
The 1992-93 results to date are not included, remember:

1.  Dean Smith		North Carolina	740 wins
2.  Don Haskins		UTEP		606
3.  Left Driesell	James Madison	600
4.  Norm Stewart	Missouri	593
5.  Lou Henson		Illinois	590
6.  Bob Knight		Indiana		588

Since the Illini played up in Alaska, losing to NMSU in the finals, I 
figured they had won at least 3 games up there, before starting the main 
part of their schedule (where I think they've not been beaten yet - can 
anyone there confirm this?).  Missouri has only played 3 games in total 
at this point, which is why I guessed that Henson has passed Stewart.

Maybe the Missouri and Illinois folks can clear this up.

As an expatriate SEC basketball fan, I was wondering if anyone could give me 
predicted order of finish, any impact freshmen (other than Rhodes of UK), and
short team rundowns (except Vandy, b/c I have hometown reports there).  Also,
is it just me or does the SEC get rooked in national rankings?  UT especially,
they're only losses were close games to the Hall and SU, both ranked high, and
they've beaten MSU (but then again, who hasn't this year), but still only got 
32 votes!  Other teams, Vandy, Bama, etc. seem to get shortchanged in votes.  

Is it because there is a lack of media coverage (and hence hometown votes), or
do they rightfully deserve the cellar?  After all, MSU was still in the top 25
at 0-3 and (I think) 0-4!!  What a powerhouse -- able to continue being ranked 
despite being winless!

This is apt because of the topsy-turvy way Pitino seems to coach: here

???  

Anyone who thinks that UK players were ill-conditioned is too stupid
to be coaching (or training) in the NBA.  Even back in the Joe Hall
days, UK regularly worked harder than almost any other team, getting
and staying in shape.  The Wildcats even as far back as the 1970s
won countless games where they were not playing particularly well,
but had more stamina and energy left in the game's last minutes.

	Yeah, it's someone opinion -- I just didn't agree with it.  However,
	if U notice, I usually use facts and figures to compare players,
	I don't do things based on personal emotion or feeling.  I try to
	view things from an objective point, and make my opinions that way.
	
	My real feeling about Hurley is the "wait-and-see" approach.  Given,
	Hurley has had much success at Duke, but I still think parts of his
	game need improvement for the adjustment to the pros.  Don't get me
	wrong, I think he will be an excellent pro -- just not a total impact
	player in his first few years.

	Anyways, if you would like me to shut up, than maybe I will.  I've
	been posting to this newsgroup for more than 2 years now, and I've
	always felt that I had something good to contribute to it.  But
	maybe I've worn out my welcome, and obviously at least one person
	thinks I should leave.  Perhaps it's time to step out...

Louisville loses at the buzzer again.  The Cards could easily be 4-1 with a
little bit better execution.  Most people commend Crum's tough out of
conference schedule, but what good does it do if you lose to so many tough
teams you don't get an NCAA bid?  There's only 1 cupcake on the schedule 
outside the conference schedule, Oral Roberts; Louisville still has to face
AT Maryland, Xavier, Kansas, Arizona St, UNLV, and Notre Dame.  This is
overkill! ;)

I hope this team is tough enough to suck up the loss.  They've been playing
pretty well, and will only get better if they can keep morale up.  I'm getting
sick of losing all the time, though. ;)  (Thank goodness UK is playing so
well!)
