Nova gives Marcus Zegarowski a perfectly clean look at a 3, which he misses because he’s having a tough night. Gus Johnson then compliments Nova’s ability to get “timely stops.”

Northwestern takes down Maryland.  That’s 2 in a row after losing 13 in a row

I’m an IU alum. A guy who runs a horseshit one and done factory would be the ultimate worst case scenario for me.

I’d rather keep Archie forever than have Calipari. And that’d be true if Calipari never had a bad year on the court.

You had me until the Archie forever part.....

Can't believe IU would fire Archie after the progress he made this year in avoiding the Wednesday of the BIG tournament! Our fanbase is so unreasonable!

I kid I kid. But seriously, will be a fun tournament to watch.

I'll take the winning any day of the week. 

I'm with Stuhoo. He was in charge of 2 different teams that had final fours vacated. No thanks

Seeing more commentary that Notre Dame's winnningest coach, Mike Brey (age 61), may be headed out the door.  Just one of the articles I've seen recently.

Always thought Brey was a good coach just wasnt great at recruiting.

Duquesne up 4 with 41 sec to go.  Day drama in the A-10 

[Honkyman]

Mike Brey is a pretty good coach--better than ours. It's not easy recruiting basketball players to Notre Dame these days. They are competing with Indiana and Purdue for in-state talent. Fewer and fewer top players want to come from other parts of the country to Indiana to play basketball. Like Northwestern, Notre Dame has higher academic standards than many limiting their targets. Notre Dame used to attract great players from the Washington, DC area (e.g., Adrian Dantley, Austin Carr). But not so much anymore. Now schools are less tolerant than they used to be, primarily because coaches are paid so much money there is a feeling they should be able to put top 25 teams on the floor every season.

Duquesne wins it.   Richmonds season comes to a close.   Started out promising by winning at Kentucky but that turned out to be fools gold.   Disappointing season for the Spiders 

[Uspshoosier]

Chance to watch Tre Mitchell and UMass.   IU recruited him and he has turned out to be a beast in the A-10.   
 

[Uspshoosier]

Interesting stat of the day for you.   There is a chance that only 5 teams in the B1G finish with a winning conference record this year.  

[Uspshoosier]

If Anyone else is jacked up for this ASun quarterfinal game between N Alabama/ and N Florida that’s about to start your going to have to wait.   It’s delayed because the testing results are not finalized.   Get your crap together ASun I got ball to watch

Dont joke, there are knuckleheads that will argue that point, mainly on twitter/Facebook in favor of him returning.

He definitely wasn't afraid to shoot the ball.  Not real explosive but pretty smooth.  UMASS shot the lights out.

And Davis had the 4th, 11th, 17th and 18th hardest schedules (but managed to finish .500 or better in the conference all 4 of those years). He had a couple of brutally hard pre-conference schedules.

This year is partially ranked first because of how deep the Big Ten is but also because of Covid....ie no pre-conference cupcakes to bring down the overall degree of difficulty.
