Imagine that Calhoun was a savant as it came to the psychology of the game & athlete of his generation. His secret sauce always seemed to be getting his players to play harder than the other side (other than the 2006 team).

Schizz has a true love for the BE, that is apparent. Interesting projection is that only 2 extra mid major teams slotted. Usual suspect in St Mary - no idea why their NET is so high. Bennett has figured out how to game the system there. This creates the big opening for a league like the BE to...

Would seem you prefer those coming from the Jay Wright school of coaching class. JC wasn't going to win a whole lot of awards for congeniality. Great figure to build from nothing in that era. He wouldn't do great with today's athlete. For all the shenanigans Hurley throws, he does offset it...

KP wouldnt agree. Hot at right time.

Nova even having a shot likely starts tonight against Wisconsin. Lose there and they’ll need two wins against UConn and StJ.

Is a bit silly when you think about it - rewarding a team on a little tournament rather than a season long accomplishment. I'm all for doing anything we can to get the best teams out of these conferences in. We don't want totally uncompetetive games in the dance. Listening to Klatt about hoops...

Uconn takes care of business they’ll get the 1 in the east. I doubt 2 one seeds come out of any league unless uconn or duke blow it. If they do a B12 or B10 team will likely snatch one.

It's too bad as it does feel like the BE needs to do something to freshen things up. It feel epically stale. Would be nice if we saw a couple McD AA in this league besides us every once in awhile. It looks like Gtown may have one coming in next year. Right now the only freshmen in this...

Waiting for an "it's coming".

There is some validity here, but what do you see coming in next year that changes that? Can PC attract a good coach? Can any of these schools attract top talent from HS or Portal? Cooley will get there - it's 3 years and he has a team that is KenPom 100+. DePaul had no where to go but up, and...

True but I do think the disparity between the haves and have nots grows wider every year due to the portal and economics.

He does watch every UConn game. Stays close to them for some reason.

Uhhhhhh - did you even look at the Torvik %'s? The Nova Wisconsin game is a fair matchup to see what chance our bubble teams have of actually being tourney worthy. Would seem they fall off with a loss.

Kid is our alpha go to guy. Everyone needs one of those for reasons other than scoring.
