Lots of time for things to change, but he did Tennessee no favors at all. Depaul in the 2nd round, Baylor in the 3rd round and then ND if they made it that far.

2-loss Ok St, conqueror of Baylor does not appear. Are they on probation?

Texas will not see the Elite 8.

Texas will not see the Elite 8.

They could - there's not many out there that can beat them. Are we having parity because so many teams are improving, or just because of widespread mediocrity? The only teams that seem to have a culture of excellence (besides UCONN) appear to be ND, SC (still developing that culture), and maybe Baylor.

South Carolina has a culture of excellence with one Final Four appearance and Baylor "maybe" has a culture of excellence with two NCAA championships?

In fairness, Mudcat did say that SC was "still developing that culture". But very recent history - SC made the final 4 last season and is favored to do so this season. Right now SC is a 1 seed but Baylor is likely a 2 seed.

Baylor may have won 2 NC's but they haven't been to the final 4 since 2012. Historically, I'd say Baylor is much further along than SC (Baylor with 2 NC's, 3 final 4's, and 8 elite 8's vs. SC's 2 final 4's (one was 1980) and 3 elite 8's. But I don't think Mud meant any insult to Baylor's tradition by his comments...

I didn't interpret it as an intended insult, just a slight inaccuracy.

And it is way to soon to discuss 1 seeds considering that conference play just started. A projected number 1 seeds doesn't mean much unless you have UCONN on your jersey. I seem to remember Baylor being a 2 seed the year they beat three 1 seeds en route to a title in 2005. What did the number 1 seeds get those teams?

A lovely garden?! Certainly not a NC!

Texas let Stewie, Mo, and KML, run wild all over them in Albany last regional bracket. However, the team is looking very good. Aston's squad is laden with young talent and an anchor in Imani Boyette (nee' Stafford). This might just be the year the Horns make the regional finals or the national semis.

Since Baylor has come up, I would be hard-pressed to name a better current WCBB coach than Kim Mulkey. I'd give the nods to Geno and Tara, but that's it. I'd even leave Muffet and Karen out of such a list.

I think Muffett is better (and so does Geno). I'd say Geno, Muffet, Kim, Tara and then all the rest.

For the last several years I haven't been able to print up the BRACKETOLOGY off Charlie Creme's page. I have to hand write it up and it's a pain! I've tried just printing the page and there are no brackets just one long line of schools on the left side of the page for 14 or so pages or print preview where it's all jumbled!
Has anyone found the same problem?
I used to been able to print it up, 3 or 4 years ago.
Why wouldn't Charlie Creme want it printable?

 

[Zorro]

I do NOT want the killer rabbits in our bracket!

Better question: why would anyone WANT to print this meaningless bracket?

Just finished watching Texas play Iowa St.
Texas really could become a threat, if they continue to get better.I like how they have a choice to play any style Tall or Fast.Texas has a lot of weapons.

Ugh; Mulkey is insufferable.

You know that deep down you are jealous of her stylish clothing and demure, southern charm.

Texas is a very good team this season. Boyette improved a lot over the summer and they have some very good guards. I would not want to meet them in the NCAA tourney.

LOL, I like you, ETT, but I really don't care for Kim.

We're talking about coaches, not potential dates.

That would be Brad Stevens.
