Bracketology and Selection Sunday Discussion

I know it's popular to crap on Miami Ohio for playing absolutely nobody. But I'd MUCH rather see them get a crack than some completely mediocre power conference teams like Auburn, Va Tech and Cal.


Can someone with some knowledge on basketball scheduling educate me on their schedule in general?
Its wildly different than football scheduling (obviously). The main problem seems to be that there was a weird part of the year where other programs were playing big "invitationals" Thanksgiving tournaments, Christmas Tournaments, New Years Tournaments.

Is it Miami's fault they weren't invited to those tournaments? XU dropped them. UD dropped them, UC hasn't played them since 2022.

Cincinnati Bengals (Same Ole Bengals)


The Cincinnati Bengals retained one of their best offensive linemen ahead of the start of free agency, signing right guard Dalton Risner to a one-year deal on Monday.

The deal is worth up to $5 million, agents Drew Rosenhaus and Shawn O'Dare told ESPN's Adam Schefter.
Yeah. I wish we didn't have to praise them for that, but at least it got done.

Texas Longhorns (big hat, no cattle; please don’t Horns Down us)

Mark Stoops joins Texas coaching staff: Ex-Kentucky coach will serve as special assistant to Steve Sarkisian​

Stoops joins the Longhorns after 13 seasons at Kentucky

One week before Texas kicks off spring practice, coach Steve Sarkisian has added a veteran coach to his staff, as former longtime Kentucky coach Mark Stoops is joining the Longhorns staff as a special assistant to Sarkisian, according to 247Sports.

Stoops brings more than three decades of coaching experience to Austin, which includes a 13-year stint at Kentucky. The Wildcats fired Stoops following the 2025 season, but he left as the winningest coach in program history. Stoops guided Kentucky to an 82-80 overall record during his tenure, which included seven winning seasons and four bowl victories.
