That might be the most incorrect statement I have read in a long, long time.
I am assuming you have played sports at some point in your life, if you actually believe this, that tells me you have only ever played rec league type sports.
JRob and Butler return to practice

That’s sad. Today we are a 3 with KU the 6 seed. Lol. I’m impatient when it comes to tourney success. Waited long enough.
I get it, cal ruined everything for all of us. This year we gotta be patient with pope, they can make a run but it’s also very thin margins for error
IMO They need 3-4 games to knock off rust and for the team rotation to get set.
If they’re good to go, play them now. Need to work on that seeding for the tourney.
The rotation will be cut when the tournaments roll around. Don’t have your hopes up of seeing much of Perry or Noah/Almonor once Robinson and Butler are available.
Players get into foul trouble every game. As well they need a short breather sometimes. Great to have some experienced players for back up.
How long has Robinson been gone? It would seem to me that an injury to the shooting wrist might
require easing back into playing, which would involve some playing before getting back to some
where near normal. I'm sure he has been receiving therapy on a daily basis. If he has returned to
practice working out soreness and stiffness would seem to be the next logical step. Playing is
about the only way to do that. It might take 3 or 4 games for him to be somewhere near his normal self
Disagree. Pope has already talked about widening the rotation rather than shrinking it. I think he sees an opportunity to develop his entire roster and beat teams in stamina. I do expect bench minutes to slightly decrease but I expect most everyone to play based on his own words
Butler-Robinson
Robinson-Brea
Oweh-Brea
Carr-either Noah/Almonor
Williams-Garrison
I believe that will be the rotation with maybe Chandler getting a few defensive minutes.
Because the 2s and 3s are way more beatable that the ones
Records for every seed in March Madness from 1985 to 2024
These are the all-time, round-by-round records for every seed in the March Madness men's tournament from 1985 (when the field expanded) to 2024.
www.ncaa.com
Not to let facts get in the way, but since 1985:
4 seeds have 243 wins
5 seeds have 180 wins
6 seeds have 163 wins
I’ll take the 4 seed.
yeah because I rather face Duke, Auburn, bama or Florida, instead of the 2 or 3 seeds. But hey you take those facts and go whatever way you want.Records for every seed in March Madness from 1985 to 2024

Historically,
4 seeds have 49% more wins than 6 seeds;
4 seeds have 35% more wins than 5 seeds
But your logic is way better.
I think Pope will push them to get out there, but Cow sure as hell wouldn't.
not at this point, especially when we are trying to avoid playing on wednesday in the SEC tournament and trying to stay on the 3 line for the NCAA.
Wouldn't play a 1 seed until the elite 8 at the earliest instead of the sweet 16.
This assumes a 4 seed is seeded properly and is actually a better team than the 5 and 6 seeds. That is why they win more. UK will not be a better team as a 4 seed than they are a 5 or 6 seed. That being said, if you avoid playing a 1 earlier, I can understand the point @Dontworryboutit23 is making.
