Mad Dog and Stephen A just had their top five college basketball destinations for coaches. Lexington wasn’t on either one of them.

Recency bias?

Agreed. Partly because room for improvement is so great, but agreed.

Boo.

Rebounds were 57-31 in favor of SC.

It’s a cliche, but the better team won. And the deeper team. I think they said that bench points were 37-0 SC.

I’ve thought all along that Purdue (along with a healthy Houston) is the only team capable of hanging with UConn for forty minutes Huskies were ranked #1 for seven weeks, Boilermakers for five Should be a good one

I don’t think there’s a massive conspiracy theory. I do think that the NCAA DESPERATELY wanted Iowa to get to the final game, as did ESPN. Agree wholeheartedly with the last sentence.

Redlegs had their chances. 0-11 with RISP.

Didn’t I hear that Kentucky doesn’t practice at Rupp?

Maybe give a guy a chance. But I should be sticking to the topic of this hire.

Putting up nice numbers. Not enough to drag San Antonio out of the depths like maybe a generational center (Kareem, Shaq) may have done, but he’s justifying the #1 pick.

7-5.

In related news, water is wet.

It’s been a roller coaster ride for sure.

It is often hard to figure out what they’re thinking over in Mt. Sterling.

On the plus side, the 38th is often the weakest district in the 10th. But you’re right. They lost plenty and 2024 may have been the last time for HC to make real noise in the postseason for a while.

Why I asked. Mixed messages out there.

Has Bronny hit the portal yet?

Mulkey was correct in defending her players as portrayed in the LA Times article. First time I’ve been the least bit sympathetic to her in years.

Mulkey said in her presser that “we didn’t guard. And didn’t guard last year when we won”. Makes me think she was content to let Clark get hers and hope to shut down the role players. But the role players stepped up this time around.

Shades of Jim Valvano. Burns was a load.

Watched the first half, evenly matched. Got sidetracked and when I checked back UConn was up by 31 I thought it was a misprint.

Is it just me, or does Roach always save his best for the dance?

And if UConn wins this year’s tournament it will be with a big turnover in players. #Hurleyrules
