Tomorrow it is #26 USC.

Just sayin':
Re: 19 Straight B1G Titles
In conference play Sparty is 9-0 (with 4 games to play) and the Bucks are 7-1 (with 5 games to play)



That loss at home to Sparty (after wining the doubles point) really sucked.

Yup
It sure looks like msu has the big regular season title locked up with just 4 conference matches which except for TSUN should be easy wins.
Sparty started the season with some injuries, took some big hits because of key players missing in the lineup but got healthy just in time to pull upsets against Illinois, USC, UCLA and at The good guys.
counting me as torn between …
1. pulling for a TCUN win over sparty with a shared title or
2. content with the cheaters programs demise.

Arizona is a damn joke. No direction. Just downhill out of control offense.

Just sayin': Yeah, but financially, their coach made out real well. Getting to the Final Four made UNC consider Lloyd for their vacancy which in turn got Arizona to give him a much bigger contract. He went from ≈ $4.5M a year to ≈ $7.5M a year.

Tommy Lloyd agrees to new 5-year deal with Arizona

Coach Tommy Lloyd has agreed to a new deal with Arizona, he announced Friday.

Tommy Lloyd agrees to new 5-year deal with Arizona​

Per ESPN sources, Arizona's new deal with Lloyd will make him one of the five highest-paid coaches in college basketball, as he'll start in 2026-27 at nearly $7.2 million and will average $7.5 million over the life of the deal.

Was in Ace Hardware on 5th Ave yesterday and Ivan came in with Colin White. I'm about 6'5 with my shoes on and it was ridiculous standing next to him. I used to think it would be cool to be 7ft but F that! What a hassle that has to be.

Btw both kids were very polite. Told them keep their heads up it was a good year just tear em up next year. Definitely a fan of both but they both need to add some muscle to bang in the B1G

You could have got the inside scoop on where White will be playing next year.

Michigan’s back up point guard (Cason) who was one of the best backup point guards in the country if not the best, tore his ACL after the Illinois and Yaxel was hurt last night. Injuries happen. It’s just excuses. Alabama or Iowa state isn’t keeping up with Michigan with how they have played in this tourney. They are on a mission right now.

Uh huh getting a comically easy road through injury/suspension rattled teams makes zero difference. Got it.

Choking in every previous year. Call it underperforming relative to his high NBA level talent this year. Either way, he’s not a great coach to me.

Dusty May, on the other hand, is a great one. Yaxel goes out and you barely miss a beat. Best team in the country and they’ll prove that on Monday pretty easily.

Reed can be neutralized by Michigans bigs and Mullins will struggle to get shots off vs the length. Would take a guard play miracle in favor of UConn to be close.

This sucks.
Click to expand...
Even if UConn wins on Monday, I’m happy with how Reed has turned out. He was part of the shit show under Howard who I was never a fan of. Hurley saw something in him and if they win Monday, I’ll be happy for him, Karaban, and Mullins. I have no hate toward them and I have a feeling it’s going to come down to the wire on Monday.

Their sweet 16 matchup was going to be a team rattled by a key player missing no matter who it eas and they got to play an ass Tennessee team in the elite 8 because the 2 seed Iowa State got slammed by injuries. I don't care what anyone says there is some luck in that

It doesn’t matter what region Michigan is in if they are on their A game. There is a reason Michigan has a chance to become the first team to have a 40+ rating in Kenpom since 2002. Their stats/metrics and results show this. Luck has nothing to do with it and comes a distant 4th compared to skill, execution, and coaching/preparation.

Going back to my post from earlier round. It seems like it’s just a strategy? Play wild, out of control ball and pray your guys hit a ton of 2-pointers?

All while giving up 3’s and not playing defense.

Good stuff, Tommy Lloyd. I see why you choke.
Click to expand...

Well choking implies that you had a chance. They didn’t have a chance. Michigan was a bad matchup for them even though I think Arizona is a hell of a team. May using EC with the bigs at the top of the key was genius. It wasn’t that Arizona wasn’t playing defense. Michigan’s pg play and execution led to Michigan making it look easy. Michigan doesn’t really have many if any weaknesses on offense when they are clicking.
