anybody else see the Wisconsin fan violate the Oregon mascot after that last commercial break?
They just called jebidiah at the Amanda colonies and told him to milk those cows 24 hrs a day.
I don’t get McDermott to Indiana. He is perfect at creighton. Why go to a school where you’re demanded to do big things immediately and fans will turn on you in a second. Especially this late in your career. Seems strange.
He's the Rick Byrd of St Bonaventure. Good coach, has looked a couple jobs but is happy where he's at.
I guess. Still doesn’t make sense when it would be stressful if you’re not successful.
I love how Lunerdy instantly inserts Texas in the bracket once they......checks notes, beats a bubble team and a team that lost 5 out of 7.
Texas had lost 7 out of 9 before this tournament and now they are in becuase of 2 wins? The SEC bias by these dorks is astounding .

To be fair he might think Texas doesn't deserves to be in. He is just predicting that the committee will have a SEC bias just like they do in football.
He shifts his bubble teams around about 5 times a day just based off the latest games then seems to be ignoring the other 95% of the year.
Fortunately, might be able to avoid that, I think HPU will be a 13 (this is assuming ISU stays on 3 line ... it isn't "guarantee" it won't drop to 4, but seems low%).
Current projected 14s (via Matrix, and my list)
UNC Wilmington
Utah Valley (#1 seed in WAC, if GCU wins auto, probably stays same line)
Troy
Montana
UNCW has some dudes. U-Valley or perhaps Grand Canyon wouldn't be a cakewalk. The other two don't seem as threatening, to me, but y' never know.
I want no part of Grand Canyon; they won their first round game last season in the classic 12 over 5 upset and then gave Alabama a lot of trouble in the 2nd round. They have a high-major talent player in Tyon Grant-Foster, who might have started at Kansas (?) originally. No thanks to that potential matchup.
I have to wonder if Auburn is a bit vulnerable. Broom is still good but I think his injuries are lingering and they get a little flakey on D sometimes.
Some really poor but really entertaining basketball happening in the George (Washington vs Mason) contest.
