Running 2022-23 NCAA Basketball Thread

Shocker of the night is in the Pac-12 women's tournament.

 

Don't know if it costs the Cardinal a top seed, but bet they'll still be at Maples for the first round.

 

How the heck is that not reviewable?

 

And the Buffs gag up a hairball, Cougars to the championship. The new coach has completely revived WSU's program.

 

First time hearing Jay Wright do color commentary. He’s pretty damn good.

 

Top-seeded Bradley edges #5 Indiana State in the MVC semifinals, a great game. Bradley is 25-8 with a regular-season championship but it better win on Sunday because the 12th-place Big Ten team is more worthy.

 

I'd be stunned if he ever gets back into coaching. Forget the money he's made, he's more comfortable in his skin than 99% of his peers. He knows it's probably impossible to do the job the way he did it--by building a culture with four-year kids--so better to get out at the top w/his legacy fully intact than hanging on another 15-20 years and either completely selling his soul to the devil like Coach K or dragging an entire university down with him, like Jim Boeheim. Plus, he's obviously a natural for TV, unlike most of his peers.

 

The NCAA needs to answer this question.

 

Christ on a box of Ralph’s Donuts, this is the best chance Tennessee Tech has had at a NCAA bid in my lifetime and it is pissing down the ole pants leg in the OVC final.
