As an alumnus of the university (and the grizz gang) I find your analysis to be interesting. The Free Press has called Kampe the 2nd best coach in the state (behind Izzo). As someone who bleeds vegas gold, and watching OU games since the late 80s, you saw a typical OU team. True to Grizzly fashion, this team features a product with a strong perimeter game, good guard play and a solid inside game with occasional late game collapses (see tonight's conf. championship game). Anyways, look forward to more OU articles<BR/><BR/>-Dan from Wash DCUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07472745338454007804noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20559458.post-53105634396516468522009-03-10T16:16:00.000-04:002009-03-10T16:16:00.000-04:00John, really?

For starters, I don't even know where my local K-Mart is--to be a Wal-Mart equivalent, you've gotta be pretty well all over the place. And while Meijer's are generally nicer stores than Wal-Marts, they're not quite Targets, either, at least in my experience. I think the comparison's valid, though maybe the Ann Arbor-area just happens to be K-Mart deprived for some reason.Jerry Hinnenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15097537044668238939noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20559458.post-23183516383138038242009-03-10T14:54:00.000-04:002009-03-10T14:54:00.000-04:00Whoa, Meijer (usually pronounced "Meijer's") is a ...Whoa, Meijer (usually pronounced "Meijer's") is a lot nicer than Wal-Mart.

That suuuuuuuucks. Almost makes you wish Kangas had taken some kind of redshirt so the whole team (minus Waterstradt, I guess) could take a run at the league post-Woodside and the rest of the NDSU seniors.<BR/><BR/>Not that I think OU can't take them if they get something out of Maynard and Cushingberry. Those two seem like the "wild cards" and the difference between OU being just a good mid-major and a potential bid winner.Jerry Hinnenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15097537044668238939noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20559458.post-42986853698445296062009-02-11T11:12:00.000-05:002009-02-11T11:12:00.000-05:00ya he is kind of our version of darkothe student s...ya he is kind of our version of darko<BR/><BR/>the student section has been strong all this year and that should carry on into next year (forgetting games over breaks) OU is the only team with the talent to play with anybody and also to take down NDSU. Remember we lost our leading scorer and rebounder from last year at the begining of the season due to a broken foot. Nelson was a huge loss but the younger players have really stepped up.<BR/><BR/>thanks for checking us out and writing about it i really enjoyed it.<BR/>keep coming to the O.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20559458.post-24450771722288143532009-02-11T09:12:00.000-05:002009-02-11T09:12:00.000-05:00Ryan, I did enjoy it.

It's a nice gym with good basketball ... what's not to love? <BR/><BR/>By the way, I forgot to mention that Milutinovic was like a -7 in just two minutes of play ... in three defensive possessions he left two dudes wide open for threes and committed a shooting foul. On the other end he bricked a 3 and I think helped commit a turnover. A phenomenally awful performance.Jerry Hinnenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15097537044668238939noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20559458.post-45225098879944496532009-02-10T12:57:00.000-05:002009-02-10T12:57:00.000-05:00Wow, sounds like you enjoyed your visit to the O'R...Wow, sounds like you enjoyed your visit to the O'Rena.<BR/><BR/>Our student section on some nights is pathetic but on others it's pretty crazy and loud. <BR/><BR/>I'm putting my $ on OU v. NDSU in the Championship game, but NDSU definitely has a deeper squad, so I'd have to take them if I was actually putting real dough on the game.<BR/><BR/>I was one of the students NOT wearing the cheapy little meijer jerseys :).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
