That Wisconsin collapse really hurts our chances at a 7 seed in the BTT. Oregon is most likely winning out to finish 12-8. I don't see us doing the same

Yep, unfortunate. Still, I don't think there's much difference between 8-9, 7-10. It'll likely just be a MSU or scUM situation ...

Watching this HOU-ISU game, noticed that Kellen Sampson, Calvin’s son, is an assistant coach. Didn’t know that.

They also mentioned that Hou has only had 3 players transfer out over the last 10yrs.

I’d guess they have a lot of Tilman Fertitta NIL and probably some oil cash as well.

Opponent wise I agree. I just hate the 11 am tip time that the 8/9 seed get on Thursday and Friday.

7/10 seed would play in the evening on Thursday and Friday.

no problem bro.....................I still get angry when all the pundits sing his praises as a leader of young men..................he's a crook who got busted and got a ( I believe ) 5 year show cause banishment from the NCAA..........should have been a lifetime penalty as he ran roughshod over the rules for a long time.....he really really did...........

Agreed. Between him and Pearl, I'm not sure how the sports media (ESPN) managed to polish these turds, but here we are. I really hate them both with a passion.

Brad blew it. He should have passed on Boswell, kept Fears. Brad had to keep Fears. I backcourt trio of DGL, Jakucionis & Fears would be elite. Boswell as a sophomore last year shot 39%. What made Brad think he would improve his shooting? Fears is shooting around 45% this year. I suppose Boswell is a better defender but I still take Fears over Boswell.

Can't believe we passed on that one...

We didn't 'pass"

He was in next years class and decommitted 2 weeks after we signed a lottery pick caliber point guard, then reclassed and went to Oklahoma

He had been really struggling lately like KJ has, hope our guy gets right this evening also
