Running 2022-23 NCAA Basketball Thread

I'll do my standard bracket and run away with the thing.

 

I'd join and that'd be the year I actually picked all four F4 teams, b/c that's how I roll.

 

Someone's taking shots across the athletic complex

 

Oats doesn’t want to get in a pissing match with the most powerful man in Alabama. He won’t say shit about this.

 

That was absolutely Saban swinging his dick out to remind Oats who runs the state. Win all the national basketball titles you want, son, they don't matter a shit.

 

Is there an SEC school other than Kentucky, and maybe Missouri, where basketball means more than football?

 

Vanderbilt.

One the one hand Saban seldom speaks without knowing exactly how his words will land. On the other, he’s been court side for more basketball games this year than I can ever remember, even after the shooting.

It may be a way to turn the conversation away from the fact that his 4-star DB could pull some serious jail time. Over 200 grams of pot and $7000 in cash, plus an unpermitted firearm (who knew there was still such a thing in DeSantisland?) And his NIL Dodge Challenger has quite a bit of giddy up.

Isn't Saint Nick also perhaps perturbed at the stain the basketball-affiliated shooting might do to the football program? He's the greatest coach ever in part because he sweats every detail and tried to mitigate every possible issue. Especially in recruiting.
