Yea I have no interest in a bracket being released if they aren't playing the tournament.

Everyone except for may a handful of teams knows if they were in or not. And the teams on the bubble could care less about qualifying as an 11 seed and never playing

Yeah, BUT....now UNC officially doesn't make the cut.

Fuck me. The lime doesn't kill it?

You’re doing it wrong. You have to follow up with a shot of mezcal to kill it

Grand Canyon, still making personnel decisions. Goodbye Thunder Dan.

Five seed vs Stephen F. Austin.

He fucked something up, though. A 6 seed (Iowa) wouldn't be playing a 12.

Ha.....it dawned on me why Calipari and others are upset about this (besides tourney bonuses). They spent all this money buying 1 and dones for nothing.

Then again, 1 title in 10 previous years at UK tells me he may be used to that ROI

Sure

There was supposed to be so much basketball on right now.

I’d been joking (but serious?) that I need to quit sports for a while since the Fiesta bowl, but not like this.

Buckeyes wouldn't have made it, but it would have been better than nothing

 

[OHSportsFan]

Gotta agree with the cynic. 68 Coaches and agents sitting on what, $3-5M worth of bonus to be paid ($50k average)?

Leonard Hamilton alone made $200k for making the tournament 2 years ago with FSU. Calipari on the other hand doesn’t include any post season bonuses.


I read Holtmann made $40k for the 2018 tournament appearance.

Could've been neat to see the subjective best 16 teams play each other with no upsets throwing off the tourney.

On second thought, Kansas might be ecstatic right now if they are awarded a paper national championship and don't have to earn it by winning the tournament.

Give us the bracket! I have a UNC coworker who was happy that the streak is technically alive. I want to be able to print it out, bring it in on Monday, and tape it to her screen.
