CSU would have gotten in the tourney had it not been for Wyoming grabbing the automatic bid, plain and simple. UCLA had a bad year and Texas had a losing record in the Big 12. CSU got screwed.
Life is a bitch, bitch.

The AD knows they take a back seat to Tony Frank. Weird dynamic.Really? Deputy AD from a lower end school seems pretty average type of hire to me.I liked the Jack Graham hire better, simply because I felt that guy was going to do anything to win (and he did).

I thought he was the deputy AD at Oklahoma and another major University? They weren't getting a big name or someone already at a big School, so for them, yes, I think this is a pretty good hire.Really? Deputy AD from a lower end school seems pretty average type of hire to me.

Of course, as mentioned before, this is more of a yes man kind of hire anyways.
I heard the MWC was only getting two in, SDSU and Boise. Wyoming just got lucky. There was never going to be a third team.

I stand corrected. However, I don't speak Spanish or whatever language you speak.No, Director of "Development, i.e. fund-raising, dialing-for-dollars, except at OU its dialing for thousands of dollars among the noveau oil rich. Big deal! (Hey!"Joe Bob, we'uns'll put a picher of yer wife AND yer huntin' dawg in the AD ladies room.... iff'n y'all will do-nate $25,000 a year from them oil royalties, to the Football uniform support Fund."...Joe Bob: "My dawg too? Damn! Where do I sign up?")
An up and comer from a mid-major would have been a better choice, if you wanted a dynamic guy to head up the attempt to get to P5 status. Franks wants a butt-boy.
Yeah but this year UNLV was bad. SDSU was not as dominate as they usually are so CSU couldn't get the wins over good teams during the conference schedule they usually can. They had no good road wins because the teams in the conference were bad.
How did CU do? Did conference help us get in? Maybe both teams just werent good enough this year.

We definately weren't good enough this year. The committee didn't think that CSU was good enough.
Big difference is that CSU won over 25 games this year, we couldn't win 15. Guarantee that a PAC team with 25 wins gets into the tourney and doesn't have to worry about the bubble.
We did win 15.
Forgot about including the first tourney game but 15-17 doesn't get you into the NCAA from any conference without winning the conference.
If a PAC team won 25 or more, even if they played a pathetic OOC schedule it would be hard to see how they wouldn't get an invite.
I'm not sure.
13-0 with a very weak OOC
9-9 in conference play, beating only bottom feeders
3-1 in the conference tournament
Might not be enough
I don't have the info in front of me but I would be shocked if a team that went .500 or better in a major conference and won 25 games overall didn't get in. Can't think of any of the top of my head.
I certainly hope we don't find out with the team left out being us but I just can't imagine that happening in the current situation.
Has a 25 win team from a major conference been left out in the last 10 years or more?
The key is playing a very week OOC and beating the bottom feeders in conference. Not all 25 win teams are equal.
What does that have to do with onealcd's comment?
This has nothing to do with CU. I was talking about the Mountain West.
My bad. It sounded to me you were arguing that the MWC was an inferior conference. I assumed that you thought the P12 was not inferior and thats where my quote came from.
If you were not making that argument, my mistake.
