With the teams that went down tonight in Conference Tournaments if SECT Final on Sunday is UK vs UT could the Committee have the Brackets Set on Saturday with the Winner on Sunday be a 2 and the loser a 3?

Growing up in the 1960s/1970s job 1 always for me; pull against UCLA till they are eliminated.

Brutal schedule this weekend, as each of the three games is in direct conflict with basketball (assuming UK can keep winning in Nashville).

Why wouldn't UK move the start time to 4 PM on Friday? Avoid cold weather, avoid the basketball conflict, and get more fans to the ballpark.

What in the f is the phantom goal tending call when they looked at it even!??? And then Wagner foul at the end was a phantom call too!?

Just reinforces that if you cannot shoot the 3 today you're not going to win the NCAA tournament.


I try to remind folks, 60% from 2 is the equivalent of 40% from 3. It makes no sense to not recruit as many shooters as possible. Give an absolute freedom to be intentional on shooting the 3. In my 40% & 60% comparison...you're scoring the same amount of points on 2 less possessions.

Kansas defense is great.
Kansas inside the arc is great.
Kansas sucks at shooting 3's = big struggles.

If anyone wants to keep playing "old school" basketball...be my guest. It's not my fault they're slow in the math department.

Greatful Cal let go & decided to bring Welch in & learn something new.

PG from Montclair, NJ. Now they have no Coach and no commitments for next season.

This is just from me, and more of a shift in enforcement than a change.

All of this talk about do you foul up 3 or not got me thinking…what if the refs actually called intentional fouls when teams intentionally foul?

I know they aren’t even called intentional fouls anymore, but you know what I’m talking about.

If the offensive team is doing everything in their power to run a play and avoid contact, why should the defense be able to chase them down and grab them to put them on the line?

Why is the quickest whistle at any point in the game during the closing seconds when teams are trying to foul intentionally? Refs will ignore contact for 39 minutes every Saturday, but in minute 40, every dirty look becomes a foul.

Let’s be realistic. Isn’t one of the most exciting plays in basketball when a team is down 3 late and hits a shot to tie? Why have we let the refs take this away from us?

Start calling an intentional foul what it is, and we will go back to teams being forced to play defense late when they’re up 3. I think it would be a welcome improvement.

Duke down 6 to Arizona (38-32
Louisville down 8 to Chattanooga (33-27
Vandy down 3 at half to SouthCarolina upstate (31-27
Florida down 4 to UVA at half (35-39

Cal said in the post interview for the Tennessee game that he did not care about this tournament at all and, I think he said he will not bother to prepare for it. Thanks Cal. I am sure all the fans feel just like you do on this. We are just stupid basketball bennies after all.

Been waiting all day for this game.
Duke does things the right way.
They are going to stomp NC State.
2nd half adjustments coming from zjohn Schuyer.

I can't imagine this nor do I know this site's credibility but....

Was it....

A. Kansas. Let this team know right away it could hang with the big boys.

B. North Carolina. Finished what they couldn't vs Kansas.

C. Auburn. Everyone was down on them. First sign of putting it together.

D. Mississippi State 2. Still struggle to put teams away, but huge after LSU debacle.

E. Tennessee 2. Lot.of UT punches Knechted, but we got back up every time.

another mediocre michigan state team projected in the field. they have 2 decent to good wins. isn’t it time to give an extra mid major a chance? they’re 19-13 in an overrated conference.

Bad news guys. Lmao.

Looking forward to King Rex to tell us something. You guys be the judge.

I usually don't enjoy that but calling Kentucky fans white supremacists was way over the line.

Deadspin was sold and the new owners kept none of its employees.

Bracket Matrix is consistently quite accurate by aggregating all of the bracketologists predictions and they just updated their page 5 minutes ago to include only brackets submitted in the last 2 days (after UT win) and we're still only the 13th team on the list.

Honestly, if you look at our resume (19 NET, 17 KenPom, 20 BPI, 20 T-Rank, 9 AP/Coach) it's defintiely not a foregone conclusion that we're a 3 seed like many have been saying the last couple days. If we beat A&M and lose to either Florida or Bama, I bet we'll be a 4. And even if we win the whole tournament I don't think it'll be good enough for a 2.

Gotta hope we make it to the SEC Finals to feel comfortable about a 3 seed it looks like.

Supposed to speak with Western Hills DL/EDGE Javeon Campbell sometime this week but can pass along that he is now expecting to visit Kentucky on April 4th.

Their biggest visit days as of right now are 3/23, 3/30, and the spring game, but it's not at all a surprise to see Campbell working in a trip on another date.

Campbell shared his visit plans with Tyler James of the ND Rivals site. They are:

March 16: Georgia
March 18: Michigan
April 4: Kentucky
April 5: Ohio State
April 13: Notre Dame

The ND trip seems noteworthy, like a tell, because he has already visited there and the return trip to South Bend is on the same day as UK's spring game.

From what I've heard, Campbell seems pretty open to Kentucky's pitch but it's definitely a situation where they are going to have to battle some big name programs.

Kentucky is now 2400-757-1 since 1902-1903

That means the race to become the first to 2500 wins is on now.

Or maybe it was talked about ad nauseam and I just missed it.
