Tourney Talk

If I'm the Administration I'd give Mullin an ultimatum to make changes to the staff or take a hike and go get Danny. Instant upgrade all the way around. Unfortunately it won't happen because the big boosters are still behind CM.

Would love to see some upsets today. Let the smaller conference teams flex some muscle.

What is the “algorithm” indicating?

I don't like what it's indicating. I've had to make a lot of manual adjustments and I've been wrong on nearly all of them.

Michigan State overall is what it's telling me. UNC and Duke right behind them. Zags and Cincy  after that. Nova doesn't fit into it due to style of play, but based on #s specifically for them Nova is as good as ever. Spellman is the key.

Mullins arrogance will be his downfall. Imagine if he hired a decent staff from the beginning. He could have spent what ever he wanted. This is what he picked.

Buffalo's offensive rebounding is awesome. Their effort all around is incredible. Clearly outclassed physically but still competing.

I think with Rohrssen, this was supposedly an excellent staff recruiting-wise.  He’s been gone for a long time and we never replaced him.  We are recruiting and coaching one very important piece short, which is the Associate Head Coach position.  It’s not time to be cheap with this. It’s time for the administration to hire a very good AHC...

Btw on a different note UCONN women beat their first round opponent by 88 points, seriously?  140-52.  And Geno says women's game is so much much better than men's game.

Loyola wins! Props to Mase and others for calling it. Always nice to see some big city Catholic schools and mid-majors moving on.

Transfer scoring guards are all over this tournament and doing well. Bodes well for us with Dixon and if we land Scott.

Chris Webber does a good job at CBS

Carrington with a dismal second half so far. Delgado was an animal...deserved better. Kansas was a very beatable team tonight.

Carrington just went off and he just had a 3 that didnt count. Too bad. Delgado was killer

Carrington is the kid we missed these 4 yearS.

This Gonzaga/OSU game is crazy, Zags jumped out 14-0 and OSU has stormed back taken lead.

Too little too late. He had some really careless and costly turnovers and missed FTs when it was close. SH really could have used a true PG. Desi was useless. Delgado played as good as you can play. I hate seeing Big East teams exit.

Desi was horrible. Did he even get to 10 points ? I inly remember 1 basket or something like that

I've always been a big fan of Delgado, Carrington and Desi.  Give me a team full of those kids.  Was glad Angel went out playing like the beast he is, and glad that Carrington took over down the stretch to keep the Hall within a puncher's chance.

That said, Kevin Willard cannot lose enough for me.

Big East down to 2.

Syracuse-Michigan St. up next. Man I hate them and the ACC, but you just never want to face them and their zone in March -- especially on a 48 hour turnaround.

Syracuse is the longest and tallest team I've ever seen. 6'5 and 6'6 back court, 7'2 center, and 6'9 and 6'8 forwards with 6'10 and 6'8 as the only two guys they bring off the bench.

Gross.
