Washington probably best team but that’s not saying much

What team comes from the Pac 12? It is a league with parity... but bad parity. Looks like a one bid conference unless two teams just dominate.

UCLA easily has the most talent but they clearly got off to an awful start and also seem pretty soft. Think it will be a four horse race between AZ, AZ St. Wash and UCLA. If more than 2 teams from this conference make the NCAA tourney it will be blaspemy.

Not sure who cares but Marquette has a scout in Columbus Ohio

Still early but the predictions of 10 Big Ten teams with as good or  better seeds than the top Pac-12 seed.... WOW

Crean's mom passed away today. All the best to Tom, Joani, and their family.

Tom Crean is a good guy. Thoughts for his family.

Didn’t they just have a postseason ban in the last few years for the four year APR being low?

They do, don’t agree with some of these “calls” but they look good.

Yep same. I’m confident somebody will get Michigan here soon

[TheWatShot 15,551]

Michigan has been a second half team. Many of their conference games have been within 1-2 possessions at the half. We've been about the only team they curbstomped in the first half of a game.

[TXHoosierDaddy 1,375]

I love watching Beilein teams. What a get for Mich. Wisconsin comes in badly needing a win. What do you guys think of this last as far as top 10 coaches in the game right now?

1) Coach K

2) Jay Wright

3) Tom Izzo

4) Roy Williams 

5) Beilein

6) Bill Self

7) Mark Few 

8) Tony Bennett

9) Jim Boeheim 

10) Bob Huggins/ Coach Cal

I'd have Chris Mack somewhere between 7-10 in lieu of Boeheim or Huggins. Otherwise, not too bad a list.

He as definitely next on my list along with Rick Barnes. Agree could slide anywhere in there. Only thing missing from his resume is Final 4 but sure that will come.

Is this list taking into recruiting ability or pure coaching and player development?
