This it it until my final projection posted in the wee hours of Selection Sunday morning. See you then. In multiple-bid conferences, automatic qualifiers (champion or highest remaining seed in conference tournament) are noted with a * NET rankings are through March 8 and will be updated here...

Well said. In fairness to the posters that have TDS (Tommie Derangement Syndrome), the Tommies split with Oral Roberts, a really bad loss.

The Summit is currently ranked #17 of 31. So bottom half, but nowhere near one of the worst conferences in Division 1. https://www.warrennolan.com/basketball/2025/net-conference

My understanding is the Basketball Crown automatically will get the 2 best (NET) Big Ten teams not making the NCAA. So right now that would be some combination of Ohio State (36), Northwestern (56), Nebraska (57), and Penn State (63). It’s pretty likely there will be 3 or 4 Big Ten teams in the...

I agree.

You obviously don't deal in facts before spouting your hubris. Summit League seeds post-Corona: 2021: #15 Oral Roberts (reaches Sweet 16) 2022: #13 South Dakota State 2023: #12 Oral Roberts 2024: #15 South Dakota State So yes, just like you said, "16 every time." If Omaha wins, they're...

Bradley no, Drake yes.

I know cost is an issue. Would like to see them in the postseason, but I I can understand the decision not to play. In effect, this Summit League Tournament is their postseason. Win or lose tonight, the CBI would be a letdown. How fired up would they be to play in it after (in a perfect world)...

Thank you, enjoy providing it, even for goobers like that Finn guy!

Yes, you are 100% correct, coaches at lower levels don't do any scouting. They just throw the ball out there and tell their guys they're on their own and to just have fun. Also, do your homework instead of spouting nonsensical jibberish. If St. Thomas made the field, they wouldn't be anywhere...

Ground-breaking thoughts. Thanks for tipping us off. Did you watch the second half? Or how they completely shut down the guy that had 51 the night before, not to mention 40 vs. Alabama earlier in the season? Had 6 tonight, which is 6 more than he had vs. St. Thomas a week or so ago.

Thank you, very fair question. I don't like Gonzaga's resume much at all. Really, the only good wins the Zags have are Baylor, San Diego State, and Indiana, and all 3 of those are "bottom end of the bracket" at-larges. Bottom line is their predictive metrics are strong (read: they blow out bad...

My lovely bride is in Florida (on vacation) for some warm weather, while I'm in Sioux Falls (on vacation) for some basketball. Our prenuptial didn't involve money, but it included an understanding that she needed Florida a few times per year and I needed March (OK, maybe November-March) every...

I think they have a decent shot, enough so that I moved them into the field today. But I don't expect it to stick unless they at least get to the final.

What’s crazy is Eaglestaff had a 🍩 vs. St. Thomas last week. 0 for 6 from the field.

That’s what you gathered from my post?
