It seems most of the final four teams have had a scare getting through the tournament. Miss. State played Memphis close. Texas A&M played UCLA close. Kansas and Davidson was close. North Carolina is the only team to have gone through the tournament without a scare. However, they never had to leave their home state on their way to the Final Four.

Hopefully they get their scare Saturday night!!

I'm not scared, one way or the other.

Premier programs attract premier players and Coaches. Players want to be offered scholarships to places like KU, because they know that they will be involved with a premier program, and most likely have a shot at the NBA.

Well, not under Sutton's kid. Now, Eddie had a few good teams before he messed up. Evidently, Coaching at OSU, makes you turn to pain pills and booze! But, the old Bucklin boy had his moments.

I think OSU has been to just as many final fours as Ku during Eddie Sutton's tenure there.

But that's just a small snapshot of the program. I'm not going to compare them to KU because they are not in the same league.

OSU doesn't have the history that KU has. How many conference championships do they have? Do they win year in and year out?

You know at one time, KU didn't have the same league that KU is in now. They got there by having a good coach that people believed in and the players came to play for that coach. Then, when a school has a good/great coach that leaves it is easier for that school to replace the coach with another good/great coach so that the program can continue.

I don't think anybody is saying that OSU is going to be a powerhouse program next year, but with the right coach and a few more years...who knows.
