I watched the Buckner game there in ‘86. The place was packed and went ape shit when it happened. This is why it has its Historical designation. 😀

This is why the “Coyle was forced to hire Ben Johnson against his will” claims that say he could’ve never been that lazy and incompetent in his hiring process, give me pause. This appears to be his hiring process. Something about smoke yielding fire.

Stretch it out well beyond that timeframe and it looks worse. Since Herb's last championship team in 1979, we've won 2 national championships in the last 47 years (46 tournaments), sandwiching our back-to-back titles in 2002 and 2003 between a pair of 22-year droughts. In the last 46 tournaments...

Hopefully this works better than Billy Donavan’s recommendation of Pitino to Mega Tongue.

The only way Dirty Nate takes the Carolina job is if they bring back the no-show classes (if they ever truly ended them).

It's a company town, and really the only reason people in Madison would read the newspaper any more is to get UW sports news.

Retire his number

Tennessee got that same advantage tonight against UVA. Out of timeouts, but Barnes was allowed to set up his defense during a clock review in the last minute. They need to make a rule to stop that.

The Iowa-Nebraska game will set the record for most White people in one place, just edging out the Nuremberg rallies of the 1930s

Who hates Iowa? Todd Golden hates Iowa!

That’s an Air Jordan brand jumpsuit, so he’s ready.

I’m sure others have heard this, but today was the first time I’d heard “Shane Gilllis Alexander” as a nickname for Robbie Avila, the man of many great nicknames. That’s just brilliant.

Not sure where Clemson belongs, but they have to be among these teams as a blue blood or former blue blood. They were one of the two most dominant teams of the 2010s (along with Bama), appearing in the CFP 6 consecutive times between 2015-20, and in the finals 4 times, winning 2 national...

I thought those specially designed courts generally were refinished and sold after the tournaments were complete. Although they may have a generic one laying around without all the Big XII and sponsor logo markings that they can quickly doctor up.

100% agree. I’m not sure a lot of thinking went into this from the start. Someone saw the sparkly bauble and thought it would be cool.

It’s just crazy that a major conference tournament is changing the entire playing surface halfway through the competition. I wonder where one sources a basketball court on extremely short notice? Rent-A-Center?

Dennis Evans was as much of a 5-star player as me. That young man was grossly overrated.

I’m sure this has been said before, but the Big XII tourney court makes the games really hard to watch. The Houston-BYU game on that all-gray floor is rough, and it should be an entertaining game to watch, which sucks.

Mick Cronin looks like a withered thumb.

And nearly beat Wisconsin (14 conference wins) twice and Ohio State (12 conference wins).
