Ralph was a great regular season coach. Not so good when we got to the tourney. It’s funny that everyone brings up Ralph. Slats Gill is the greatest coach in OSU history. Some of us are still young. Lol

Love the Old School, but I gotta say, I think the Bill Walton segment on espn is even funnier. Several Beavs get shout-outs, with special emphasis on Walton's love of all things Alatishe! Oh, and he doesn't like that USC and u0 have to play each other tonight, instead of both getting their shot at the Zags. He may say some kooky things on broadcasts, and he may have access to some of the best weed ever grown, but you can't deny his true love for the Pac-12 and his impressive and wilkyisdashiznit like encyclopedic knowledge of all things Pac-12 basketball. He named 10 (TEN) Beavers off the top of his head! Before the Pac-12 tournament I don't know if *I* could have done that! And he did that for each team left in the tourney!

The Beavers have a chance Monday, with a win, to make it further than any Ralph Miller team ever did. Anyone still want Wayne fired now? Let's enjoy where the beavs are right now. But please don't imply that Waynes coaching is equal to or better than Ralph's. If Wayne makes it into the hall of fame then compare all you want. Until then lets enjoy the moment. All of us are enjoying what the Beavers are doing right now. They have reached the Elite 8 so far, something no OSU team has done since '82 (Ralph Miller, 39 years ago) and something no OSU team has surpassed since '63 when Slats Gill was coach (58 years ago). Tinkle has tied OSU's best run since Kennedy was in the White House and can still equal that '63 feat. I have no problem if someone wants to caompare that to Ralph Milller. Heck...why wouldn't someone compare that to Miller (and Gill?)?

I would suggest this is a better run than either of the previous, since this is the first Elite 8 in the modern (64 game era w/Pac-12 tournament) - we've beaten 6 different NCAA round of 64 teams in a row!

One advanced to the Elite Eight and another would have absent Oregon State, Loyola-Chicago or the Oklahoma State-Tennessee winner. The third was Oregon, which lost to USC, a team that Oregon State beat 10 weeks ago.
