My first post about Will Wade was in just, but McNeese State is a team that can win a game in the NCAA tournament.

Let that sink in.

McNesse State, from the perpetually weak Southland Conference, can win a tournament game.

This team was 11-23 last year, 16-2 this year and their non-conference schedule wasn't all cupcakes: KenPom ranks their non-conference as the 84th most difficult in the nation, highlighted with wins over VCU, UAB and Michigan.

Their offense is diverse: they don't make a lot of mistakes (24th lowest turnover rate), have guys who can create their own offense and while they shoot very well from three (41%) they are not reliant on the three-ball (31.2% FGAs are from 3).

Their defense force teams to use a ton of clock, plus they rank in the top-50 in both turnover rate and opp. 2P%.

Long story short, Will Wade has quickly turned McNeese State into one of the very best mid-majors in the nation.

They're on ESPNU right now.
