Now that we've had time to breath...

[06panther10]

Sure, we did get hosed on the seeding, but what we do have is a tremendous opportunity in front of us. We have a great chance to double our NCAA tournament wins on thursday with a winnable game against UNLV. They are a good team, but are not much different than many teams we have beaten this year.

If we can win that game, we will be in the national spotlight on saturday against the best team in the entire country. What a great opportunity. We can only control what happens on the court, and we have done that all season long winning almost all of our games. We did everything we could this year to maximize our seed, and we cannot control what they decide to give us. What we can control is what happens on the court on thursday night.

I'm officially done being pissed, and am ready to move forward and win some games and make some noise. I can't wait. Its our time now. Go Panthers.

I think UNI has a Great chance to get by UNLV....

Then we pull out the famous Rich Glas quote when UND played Kansas.....Jake will remember...

# Rich Glas – Basketball coach at Div II North Dakota, on motivating his team before a game with #4-ranked Kansas: “I told our guys, ‘they put their pants on the same way we do. They just pull them up two feet higher.’ “ Gotta love a coach with a sense of gallows humor
