Apparently German had the fix in and KNEW that NIU was going to run the table and get the bid.

My suggestion: Give every school the earned an auto bid (by winning their tournament or as in the case of Akron and other others winning the regular season and not playing a tournament) an auto at large next year. Won't be many of the same players, but at least the school gets to Dance. And expanding the format to accommodate those teams would generate more revenue.

And now I really wonder if LCJ will be back. He is already a free agent. But just lost his best chance to go dancing with Akron. Some P5 perennial madness school just might want to pick up the POY of the MAC. If I was him and I got that offer I would take it to play in the NCAA's at least once in my career. Next year at Akron is hardly any guarantee of anything. This was our best team in years.

That is a great point. Groce is probably owed a bonus for winning the MAC, and might have been in line for another bonus for winning the tournament. Meanwhile the school gets ZERO revenue after the regular season. These are all issues to be resolved.

Do they have that kind of money, especially after losing all the post season revenue? Because we have 4 senior starters. That is a lot of shekels.

Always a bridesmaid. Never a bride. Signing off. See you in September for football.

I was also thinking they could do Selection Sunday so the kids would officially be in the Dance. They can't put it off for too long because April gets close to the end of the school year and other commitments.

Wait. WHAT? We win the game by default and play tomorrow? WTF?

There was a lot of D1 talent in the conference this year. But only one team was CHAMPS

So you are saying cancel the tournament and Dance? You do realize that the risk of death for people under 60 is near zero?

ESPN and CBS probably had a hand in this. Their advertising rates just doubled or tripled.

At least our star point guard did not get arrested.

I suspect that thousands have it but with such mild symptoms they did not seek treatment. Testing will reveal many more cases, but there is no treatment at this time.

FRIENDLY nemesis.

I also wanted Buffalo out. The two teams I feared most are them and OU.

What do I win?

I picked Miami. Still alive

I think Groce is a better strategist than KD. He puts in plays and schemes that work. KD's forte was recruiting. He started with the old Lebron crew that he brought with him, then scored with Zeke and Big Dog which got him like 7 good years. Groce seems able to do more with less.

I think BG may not be in the championship game.

WTF? There was no foul on that three try. NONSENSE

There was no foul on X and there was no foul on LCJ. HOWEVER, there was a foul on the layup by LCJ

Riak best game of his career.

So, could their record be strong enough to get an at large?

#1 should be on the wall soon.

How the hell did we win that?
