I guess it depends what you use as criteria. Here are some of Bogut’s accomplishments in the 2004 – 2005 season. Pretty impressive in my opinion.

ESPN.com National Player of the Year
Basketball Times National Player of the Year
Wooden Award Top 5 Finalist
Naismith Award Top 4 Finalist
Associated Press First Team All-America
USBWA First Team All-America
NABC First Team All-America
Mountain West Conference Player of the Year
Mountain West Conference All-Tournament Team
USBWA District 8 Player of the Year

I guess the reason to leave him off would be that he only played 2 seasons?

If TDS continues to hit 50% of their 3-pointers, with how many they shoot, they will be a tough out.

They’ve also been good at pulling out the really close games, much to my chagrin.

I know this is a basketball discussion, but I also miss Frank Dolce. I really enjoyed his color commentary and still look forward to listening to his takes when he’s a guest on the radio shows each fall.

Agree that timing is odd.

More important that X’s and O’s and player development these days is the ability to find big boosters who will throw money at NIL.

That should be the first thing we look for in a coach.

I was worried our record would be similar to that of Colorado’s this year. We were picked last weren’t we?

Agree that we’ve definitely overachieved. The team is playing hard.

Here are 3:

#1 – I’d be shocked if we don’t get better QB play next season. Even if it’s a combo of Rose/Wilson, I’ll expect better results than what we saw this year.

#2 – Fewer injury issues. I don’t expect our 2 most important players (Rising and Kuithe this year) to be out for much of the season due to injuries next year.

#2 – More bounces and questionable calls will go our way. As a contrast to how TSPP won all their close games this year off of a lucky bounce or lucky call here or there, we lost all of our close games with an unlucky bounce or questionable call. Our game against TSPP was a microcosm of the entire season for both teams.

Nice to beat out deep-pocketed schools like Oregon, Georgia, and Texas A&M. Welcome Tavian!

He was a beast on Friday!

“This is the second time this season that I’ve watched the girls and boys play back to back”

Note that Minnesota Ute also said “boys” instead of “men” when referring to the men’s team. Does that seem demeaning and hateful towards the men’s team?
