The color commentator for this Wichita State-Pitt game is having a stroke over a flagrant foul call. Yes, it's an unfortunate call, but really, chill the fuck out.

Re: NCAA Tournament thread - Play-In games and Round of 64
It's not just the money. Duke and Carolina routinely get the kind of talent that even Stevens will rarely see at Butler. Yes, they've had a couple of NBA players in the past few years. How many did Carolina and Duke have at the same time?BSF21 wrote:Something to remember is that Stevens is an Indy boy. His family is here. He has built a solid program here. I listen to radio interviews with him all the time. I don't think he is a guy who is going to chase the big money. And I don't think Tom Crean is going anywhere anytime in the near future. I'd put solid money down that Stevens is going to be at Butler for the foreseeable future.
Just .02 from your resident Indy guy on the board.
Any coach knows that better talent makes you a better coach.

Re: NCAA Tournament thread - Play-In games and Round of 64
It was two shots and the ball. In the first half. No ejection. What's the big deal--he elbowed his opponent in the face.

Delladanova and St. Marys completely dictating pace v Memphis State so far. We'll see if/when athleticism asserts control.

Whoa, whoa whoa, stop the clock! The Wichita State coach makes $1 million in base salary?
It wasn't that long ago that I made more than your typical mid-major hoops coach. At least that profession had their salary keep up with inflation. Shit, iirc Ben Howland's first contract in Westwood had a lower base salary than mine. That is a true shocker to me.

Re: NCAA Tournament thread - Play-In games and Round of 64
If he makes it to the NBA, Bhullar would be the league's tallest player by about 2 inches over Hamed Haddadi. (Ilgauskas, shorter, and Ming, taller, are retired). Bhullar also lost a ton of weight; he was pushing 400 until he got it together. Bigfatpunjabi. His younger brother is 7'2" or so.rass wrote:Deadspin has collected some ridiculous pictures of Bhullar in action.Scottie wrote:Oddly, there are four Canadians on the New Mexico State team, including 7'5" Sim Bhullar who is surely the tallest Punjabi in the NCAA as well.
Sim'd be a natural choice for the Raptors, given that Toronto has a huge Punjabi community.

Dellavedova's legs are gone. Ran outta gas. Making uncharacteristic mistakes and misses. Down seven with two to play in reg.

Re: NCAA Tournament thread - Play-In games and Round of 64
That's a mercy killing. St. Mary's could barely stand up at times in the second half. IzzoBall might have sent a few of them to the hospital.
Re: NCAA Tournament thread - Play-In games and Round of 64
Damn, that St. Mary's game got interesting in a hurry. Would have loved to see that last shot go in for Dellavedova.
And we're rooting for this Davidson upset, right?

I suppose it's an upset. Again, worst bracket ever. If your 8-seed is a 5 point favorite and your 3-seed is a 3 point favorite, you screwed up.

If you guys ever needed an example of 'right side, wrong result' I give you my pick of Davidson.

For the rest of their lives, those guys on the Davidson team are going to be mystified that they somehow lost that game.

Re: NCAA Tournament thread - Play-In games and Round of 64
Thing is, it wasn't even much of a collapse. They missed one free throw (out of about 8 down the stretch) and then had that ugly turnover. The rest of the last 2:00 they did all you could expect. But then the #317 3-point shooting team hit three in a row.

Re: NCAA Tournament thread - Play-In games and Round of 64
That was some strange seeding. I know the Pac-12 sucks, but Oregon finished second in the league and won the tournament, and got a #12. For comparison, Colorado finished fifth and got a #10. Arizona finished fourth and got a #6.cerrano wrote:i decided to be a maverick and not pick a 12/5 upset this year. after making that decision, i had to fix my bracket to reflect my thinking.

Is Harvard going to win an NCAA Tournament game? Craziness.
I find it funny that Mizzou has maintained their tradition of underperforming in the tournament no matter who their coach is. (In fairness, they are only an 8 seed, but still.)

Back in the Norm Stewart days, Mizzou's tournament failings were a regular column feature in the STL Post-Dispatch.

Lobos are trying their best to give this one away. Not to take away from Harvard--they are playing great, taking full advantage.

Quite a feat, and quite a first, if the smart guys win. They've never won an NCAA game (they also went 66-years without even making the tournament), never won in the NIT, never won in the CIT.
Good recall on the 1987 tournament, Dave. I sure as heck had to look up that reference.

I read about it a little before I posted. Watching, it dawned on me that their careers overlapped (Amaker was point on that great '86 Duke team and Alford won the title in '87), so a quick Google search turned up a reference to that game.Scottie wrote:Good recall on the 1987 tournament, Dave.
