Florida looks NIT bound unless they can pull an Indiana

Wonder if Scott Nagy will get a look here

Wasn’t aware of the behind the scenes stuff. He did get a nice raise going to Wright State. Can’t recall exactly what he was paid at SDSU, but I think the $500k per year he’s getting at Wright State is around double what he was making at SDSU.

Is this sarcasm? More patient? He was there 21 years. 12 at D1. Dominated his last 5 in the Summit. 3 NCAA bids in his final 5 seasons there. That was a steal of a hire for Wright State.

We differ on 3. I have Dayton, SMU, and VCU in. I have Oklahoma, Wake Forest, and Notre Dame out. Last 4 In: Rutgers, Dayton, VCU, SMU (last in) First 4 Out: Oklahoma (first out), BYU, Wake Forest, Notre Dame

Morehead State-Murray State is a good one so far. Every bubble team cheering for the Racers currently a 1 pt game with 9 to go in the second. Neither team with a lead greater than 4 since 9 to go in the first

The gods are with the Badgers tonight. Two bank shots from deep in the final minute of this game

Not sure if one of the parents is a U of M alum or not, but I’ve been told that Jack and his siblings have been known to wear a lot of Gopher gear. My wife taught both he and his younger sister in elementary school.

Probably more times than you see the team up by 15 with 15 seconds left take a timeout. You let ‘em press all they want and walk away with the win! Who cares? I guarantee other coaches have said things similar to (or worse than) “I’ll remember that” during the postgame handshake. Everyone knows...

It’s usually benchwarmers in the game with 15 seconds left when up by 14. I’ll ask this: how many times have you seen a coach call timeout up 14 with 15 seconds left vs how many times have you seen a team voluntarily take a shot clock/10 second violation in the same situation? I guarantee you’ve...

Howard should get suspended for the remainder of the season, at minimum the remainder of the regular season. What he did is unacceptable. I think he’ll keep his job, but he’s very lucky that he will. Guarantee if Tom Crean did the same thing today Georgia already would have fired him for cause...

Houston vs Memphis is chaos. Great game so far.

He is. I’m sure Memphis sold plenty of tickets after he was hired, but for their sake I hope it was enough to cover the almost $10M they paid Tubby to go away.

Really starting to wonder about Texas. I’m sure they’ll still make the tournament, but that #5 preseason ranking seems to look like hogwash at this point. This is no indictment on Beard, at least not right now. Still plenty of time for him to figure it out.

Are "wins vs the field" really a metric used by the committee? I haven't previously seen it on the team sheets that the committee uses to evaluate teams. Though I know those criteria are updated every year, and have been more so in the last couple years with the introduction of the NET rankings...

Appreciate the response. That jives with what I’ve been told for the most part.

Completely leaving aside the topic of the thread…I’ll take you at your word that you have connections with ppl in UST athletic admin. My sources at a current MIAC school have repeatedly told me that UST leaving the MIAC was much more calculated than it has been portrayed. And I’m not saying...

This is the part I was replying to. Didn’t say you weren’t on topic, just that the focus is on the Gophers

100% agree. I’d play the first couple in a neutral site game at Sanford/Fiserv or something like that, but not here I think I probably have a little bias from my MIAC playing days (different sport) when UST was an opponent, and I think you probably have a little bias as well being an alum...
