Re: Gary Parish...and pre-season rankings

Norlander must be looking for Twitter follows or is just a complete moron. Look at his picks for all of the conferences. My 2 year old would be closer...

No doubt.... Drake at #4???? Missouri State at #10? Pretty evident he has no clue about the MVC.

I like Gottlieb, and I'm happy to see that he likes us too.

Re: Gary Parish...and pre-season rankings

Must have been a mistake. No one has drake higher than 8th now

Re: Gary Parish...and pre-season rankings

Look at Jon Rothstein picking Creighton to finish in the bottom half of the Big East. I'd say he knows a thing or two but he picked Loyola to miss Thursday... not so surr about that

Gottlieb always seemed to like Jacobson

I agree. I want to say that a few years ago I was watching Gottlieb do a game on ESPN2 or ESPNU, and he mentioned that Jacobson had invited him and his broadcast partner out to Applebee's for a post-game brew or two after Gottlieb had done color for a UNI game on one of those channels. He then mentioned something about how a guy like Jim Calhoun would never have invited the broadcasting crew out for drinks afterward. That little anecdote really seems to support the warm feelings that Gottlieb has for Jacobson and UNI.

Sounds right. Jake and staff always went to Applebee's after games.

Looks like it was a mistake. Right now he has Missouri State at 4 and Drake where they belong.

I remember that...sat at the table next to Gottleib and Dave Revsvin(sps?) at Applebees. I think that was the first year of the new arena and Eric Coleman's freshman year and Doug was in love w/ both

Couldn't have been both. Coleman was a junior when we moved into the McLeod.
