Forbes spoke at a rotary club near the GSO Coliseum today. sounds like he's going to be doing a little recruiting in Europe. he's been to Nebraska, Iowa and Alabama the past few weeks. also named a few other places, but I can't recall them. he also thinks nearly every ACC starter is taking home...

I'm with you on this, but the people complaining aren't looking at it from this perspective. They just see one of their favorite sports going through a dramatic change, they don't like it and they are voicing their opinions on it. Sports fans are rarely rational. The market says these players...

In. Just donated.

yeah. that's the first mock draft in a while where he's in the first round. most recent mocks have him anywhere between #40 and #55.

His "who is out!" argument is dumb because everyone that is unhappy with the selection process has also criticized the MWC's quality. They would probably start with them, Joe. My main complaint about the current selection process is that wins against the field isn't prioritized enough. Texas...

McCray probably would have been a decent player off the bench. Scored over 18 a game on 50% shooting. Had 22 points on 14 shots against Purdue. Bench production was a weak spot all season and relying on Monsanto and Ituka was a risk that did not pay off.

They have three top 100 wins all season. Pitt has three top 100 wins in March alone.

eh, there was probably a lot more confusion about the NET back then. that team was rated #48 on NET (30 spots higher than the Rutgers team that made the NCAAT), but only had 1 Q1 win and 4 Q2 wins. That was a laughably weak resume for a bubble team. This year's team has 2 Q1 wins and 6 Q2 wins...

Pitt on a neutral court would be a Q1 opportunity.

Wonder if GT's win over Miami will be enough to put them back in top 135. That would give Wake an additional Q2 win. Lunardi is clueless, but it's still a bit stunning that he believes that Gonzaga and Wake are comparable right now. Similar metrics, but Wake's resume is much better.

Would be pretty sweet if NCSU can finish as a top 75 team. I want to say State made the tournament last year with 1 Q1 win and 7 Q2 wins. They had much worse metrics than this Wake team. In the overall conversation about NET, Q2 wins are undervalued. They matter. Deacs are in a decent spot...

college basketball writers always seemed to like Manning as a person.

@bym051d's post was making fun of 22

Duke is probably going to get left behind. There is going to be two major conferences at the end of this and neither the Big Ten or SEC are going to saddle themselves with two NC schools.

Terrence Thompson brought real "built like Tarzan, played like Jane" vibes to the team
