Rothstein - Purdue's Sasha Stefanovic tells me that he will pursue a professional career and will not use his additional year of eligibility.

Professional career in what?  Surely not basketball.

Don't know if anybody's watching, but this UConn-N.C. State women's game is a real wing-dinger. 

Tied at 77, headed to a second OT. First time a women's regional final has gone to double overtime.

Cason Wallace, McDonald's All-American who will attend Kentucky was asked what his goal was at Kentucky:

"we want to go far into our college season and get out of there as soon as possible"

Ouch.  3:00 mark.

Today should be a national holiday.

ESPN Stats & Info --

On this date in 1976, Scott May had 26 points and Kent Benson had 25 as Indiana completed a perfect 32-0 season with an 86-68 win over Michigan in the NCAA Championship Game in Philadelphia. The '75-76 Hoosiers are the last undefeated National Champion in NCAA men's basketball.

A nationwide trucking heir, JB Hunt trucking, formed a NIL company that is providing a whole lot of cash/opportunities to high level Arkansas recruits/players.

 Lots of posts about our basketball “brand name” but that will mean less and less as boosters tied to other schools pony up big NIL cash.

I was watching Xavier play in the NIT tonight and our old pal, Jerome Hunter had less than a minute of action. 

What in the world happened to that guy? His minutes have slowly tapered off all year. I thought he would be a solid contributor all year for them.

I’ve said this before but worth repeating. Woodsons only job in the off-season should be recruiting NIL donors/participants. His generation has all the money

more big ten news. 

[Loaded Chicken Sandwich 8,623]

Xavier will pay Texas A&M for the NIT title. I think Texas A&M wins and probably fairly easily. They've been on a mission and honestly should have been in the tourney, maybe even over us. But awesome to see Xavier get this far after firing that joke of a coach. 

[Loaded Chicken Sandwich 8,623]

It'll be awesome if NIL deals can keep kids who shouldn't go pro early, stay in school. If you're a late 1st/2nd round/undrafted, you really shouldn't leave college. If you're the 25th-35th pick as a junior, you're probably gonna be the same as a senior.
