And revenge against Illinois who criminally underplayed him during the season.

And the UofM is driving 50 in the left lane…

I’d bet a ton of these transfers lose out on the latter too, especially at lower levels…

Finding more consistent guard(s) is a big part of improving the team in 2024. You can't have a guy playing 20+ minutes as #2 in the Big Ten whose one tangible skill is rebounding. Anyone with any basketball sense knows you are trying to find a guy who will eat into BC's minutes. I think Asuma...

Have you looked at a Clipper's box score recently? There's no guarantee Christile will go the lottery if he sticks around for another year. If you can be a guaranteed multi-millionaire, you take it every time.

Izzo has the same spiel regarding Tubby and Richard...

We could have lost more games to earn an inferior seed.

It's not some grand conspiracy. The 8/9 game has been at 11:00 am for the last decade. We are the #9 seed.

We could have won more games for a better seed.

I'm not referencing a schedule at the moment, but I also recall a home/home against Arkansas and a true road game against Richmond (maybe Tubby scheduled this one). He loved those four-team preseason tourneys that fielded pretty good competition (SJU was one year, as you referred to, and then...

One of the most fun aspects of college hoops fandom is following the teams you played during the preseason and hoping they successfully boost your team's resume as the season progresses. It's brutal when there's not one win on the preseason resume to get excited about. Or even a close...

https://frontofficesports.com/new-mens-college-basketball-tournament-nil/ "A first-of-its-kind men’s college basketball tournament launching this fall will offer up to $2 million in name, image, and likeness deals to participating teams." It looks like the rich will get richer...

That's why I said, "If." :ROFLMAO: If we can punch first, I like our chances.

Izzo has been begging his senior leaders to show consistency all year, and it has yet to happen. With a loss, Michigan State will likely be out of the tournament and break its 25-year streak. That's a lot of pressure. If we're locked in and engaged early, I could see Sparty crumbling late. I...

So, who will we play in the 7/10 game if Iowa loses to Illinois?

There has to be more to the story. JOJ has been shaky lately; there's no denying that. But it's not like anyone looked good last night (besides our sixth man). In a game where size was bothering us, and we couldn't get a three-pointer to drop, it seems like JOJ would have been the perfect...

JOJ is probably gone. There is zero reason for him not to play in a game like tonight when you're looking for anyone to create a spark (other than Fox). I'm sure it's been decided for a while now, and JOJ is doing the "be a good supportive teammate," and CBJ will help him land on his feet after...

I disagree. If we return our nucleus in 2024/2025 and beat a few high-profile opponents that start slow as the transfers gel, I'd want to be rewarded for that come March. It hurts us this year, but the teams that achieve some continuity year after year shouldn't be punished for beating schools...

And didn't it later come out that Mason was battling a hip injury in the Middle Tennessee State game? Springs was our best defensive guard and provided a ton of leadership. It was just a brutal injury to put a cap on such a special season.

Unfortunately, the brutal non-con schedule and a down big ten have made it incredibly unlikely to receive an at-large bid without winning the BTT. We all knew how NET works, and so did the coaches. Now we're seeing the consequences, which is painful because I genuinely feel we are a better...
