Todd Stewart Addresses Head Football Coach Position
I'm sorry it didn't work out for Mike Sanford, but am confident that Todd Stewart will make a great hire. Although I was never emotionally invested in Coach Sanford, I am still sad for him and his family. From the video, you can tell it was a difficult decision for Stewart to make, but felt it...- nashvillegoldenflash

What is the value of an NIT championship?
Since the Tops lost to Utah in the semi-finals, we will never know what the value of an NIT championship would have been for WKU. Contrary to what some people say about the NIT, I still believe a championship is worth more than a first round loss in the NCAA Tournament. Anyone who saw Penn State...- nashvillegoldenflash

What is the value of an NIT championship?
From the standpoint of establishing a national brand, is the value of an NIT championship worth more than a first round loss in the NCAA tournament, a second round loss, or a third round loss? Given that the vast majority of NIT champions throughout the history of the tournament have national...- nashvillegoldenflash

Tops host Boston College Eagles
With all the discussion about mid-majors being disrespected by the Power 5 conferences, this is a great opportunity for WKU to make a statement. I personally believe the Tops will win on Tuesday and advance in the NIT, but a loss will only help perpetuate the belief that mid-majors are unworthy...- nashvillegoldenflash

Impressive win Tops!
Given that the Tops have advanced to the conference tournament semifinals in 12 of the last 14 years, it should not be any surprise to see them there again, but I have to admit I'm a little surprised they won by 28 points over UAB. Hopefully, the Tops will continue to advance and take another...- nashvillegoldenflash

100 Miles of Envy
From a Middle Tennessee poster: "I get it. I totally get it. I drove there to watch it. So bad. WKU's facilities and such are so much nicer than ours. That made me even more mad to be honest.
