Surely Muir knows how to operate a DVD/VCR player and has someone on staff to whom he can turn for old game film. I would think it would be pretty easy for him to sample a few games over the years to get a feel for what things are like. Heck, the marketing staff must have a promotional video of our big wins against UCLA, UA and others that clearly show what Maples can be like with a winning team. Hopefully there's staff who have been there going back to Monty's time to give the perspective as well, if he just wants to pick up the phone. Heck, those ticket takers are probably the same ol' dudes from Adam Keefe's time on the Farm. He can just strike up a conversation with them.

If Muir is mystified (where's your evidence of this?) why fans are upset over this long run of no NCAA, then we have big problems on our hands.

EDIT: If Muir needs another testimonial, perhaps he can talk to the newly appointed Deputy Commissioner and COO for the Pac-12, Jamie Zaninovich, who was Director of Men’s Basketball Operations & Marketing at Stanford University (1996-1999). Jamie essentially ran the 6th man club back in the heyday.
