+1 A headline grabbing run might marginally up the bidding price, but he's not going to magically appear on someone's radar by making the sweet 16.

Playing shell (or other sports version of it) is one of the most avoidable be frequently made mistakes across football, hockey, soccer, and basketball. I think coaches are afraid of getting criticized for getting burned being too aggressive with a lead. It doesn't annoy me when other teams do it...

Two things can be true. I think we are going to see the top programs in the big conferences lose their dominance, but also see the mid majors struggle even more to compete. It's now easier for big conference teams to grab surprisingly good players from mid majors, but also harder for the blue...

Frustrating finish to the season. Not with the folks who want Frost gone for a few reasons. First, as annoyed as I am that Wisconsin seems to be on another level than us this year, Wisconsin seems to be on another level than everyone in the country. We are neck and neck with OSU behind them...

Finishing 5th in the country? Solid season for the boys!

But some didn't want to judge our own coach based on four years worth of games!

If only we lived in a tropical paradise like Madison or Ann Arbor, then we could be on Michigan and Wisconsin's level!

Ive never understood the focus on pace of play as a metric for performance. You alternate possessions, so it doesn't matter if there are a lot or not many possessions, what matters is whether you score more on yours than they do on yours. Ive seen fast teams that push the pace and are hard to...

Sure, he can win tournament games with all the built in NIL advantages at *checks notes* Colorado State, but could he do it here? Am I doing this right?

Haha, i was thinking that but wasn't going to say it

Gonzaga in the round of 32 for the 16th straight tournament. If the Gophers aren't in, I cheer for the Zags.

That nonconference schedule was ridiculous. I hope we never see anything even resembling that again. Can't imagine any serious team and player development happened in those games that you couldn't get from your own practice squad. And it put us in a spot where we would have needed a very good...

BC got exposed!

But does he have the skills to blow Coyle away during the interview?

I would think if he wants it he could be a head coach at a D1 mid major somewhere. He had awful performance here, so I don't think he will be highly sought after, but also no major scandals and at least now he has been exposed to the workings and nuts and bolts of being a D1 head coach (it's a...

The grade you give the hire at the time it was made is like the preseason football rankings when Nebraska is looking pretty good. All hype, no games have been played yet. Like the football rankings, what really matters is how a hire is graded at the end of the tenure. In this case, a clear F.

Definitely better than when, if memory serves, Tubby heard about it through a media leak before he was told to his face.

At least when he does it in a middle of the night press release, the communication leaves the public actually knowing whether he was fired. If he does it live in front of cameras, we don't know if it was a mutual decision or if he is going to honor the full contract (props to Johnny for...

How is he on the selection committee? I almost can't think of a person whose opinion i would take on basketball performance less seriously.

I don't think he emails, he texts his wife about how he expects to be in the NCAA tournament
