Looks like the rooms or beds aren’t too big.

A full size bed measures 54 inches wide by 75 inches long, which is wider than a twin but narrower and shorter than a queen. DC measures 85 inches long. Do the math for everyone else. These beds are not adequate for a basketball team.

In my considered opinion, "pretty classless" is neither "very humble" nor does it evidence enough of a context-conscious perspective to qualify as objective.

Perhaps you or "the media" can pursue the 'controversy' angle and boost the game's popularity.

As is, I'll wager there are some story ideas in there in the situation. Here are two:

"Coach Emphasizes Players' Healthy Self-care in Response to Incomparable Travel Delay"

"NCAA Travel Arrangements Result in Extreme Hardship for a Final Four Participant"

BOTH of the above headlines could be written with news emphasis.

EITHER story could generate opinion pieces across a spectrum of approval and drama. And there might even be some investigative journalism possibilities.

Hold on a second. Don't forfeit the "both/and" possibility for the outdated, low-effort "either/or" paradigm.

Get off my lawn!
 
If the team is at the Hotel Palomar, according to their website all their rooms have either 2 queen beds or 1 king. No mention of twin or full beds. But it seems that basketball players should have king beds.

Which means the full beds came from outside the hotel........

They sure don’t look like queens…could be the angle of the photo. Both standard queens and kings are only 80 inches long, but big enough for the tallest players to sleep comfortably diagonally.

Best episode in the series.
Kobe reminds me of Cherry Blossom.
 
If they have king beds it’s crazy that they didn’t save them for the players.

Hope Hurley goes nuclear

How is it possible they don’t treat all players exactly the same
 
Kobe, were you alive for Cinci’s last FF presser in 92? (Their only one in 60 years!)
 
Maybe the players were on the way but the same travel team from last night booked their bus to the arena?

I know the team always share rooms on the road, is it possible clingan and maybe samson get king sizes on their own? Maybe he has the same set up as the kid from nc state. If he does NOT then thats insane
 
I think a lot of players would gladly accept an early morning arrival if they could get out of having to go through the hassle of a media day. I am sure the UConn players are more than happy to hang at the hotel and relax, or do whatever the coaches want them to do.

Focus a little more on Cincinnati reaching more than 1 Sweet 16 every 25 years

Do they have media obligations for the CIT?

7’2” is actually 86 “. And as Hurley has mentioned he is probably close to 7’3” so 87”

And then they are like “ but the cheese tho…”

And all it is is shredded government cheese just dumped on top of the whole mess. Terrible texture terrible cheese no melt no nothing. When someone came up with the phrase related to eating saying “ I guess I’ll choke this down” I promise you that phrase was invented over a 3 way plate at skyline. You literally are choking it down. I’m gagging just reliving the experience typing this.
