no finals today, probably figuring they’d get lost among the huge slate of major-conference games. instead, full chaos potential from 11 AM for the next 15 hours or so starts today: the MAC is always a fun one, though this year they’re down to an 8 team tournament after losing their stupid division structure and just deciding not to invite the bottom four, including all three directional Michigans—not that any of those would have won it. this will hopefully come down to Toledo vs. Kent State, the two teams who could do some damage in the NCAAs. all games in Rocket Mortgage FieldHouse, the “premier sports and entertainment facility in northeast Ohio” the American actually was a little down overall this season, and maybe another year would’ve put up a bigger fight against Houston. but they haven’t had a team quite like this year’s Houston either, who will finally give the conference its first 1 seed since it got cleft off the Big East and C-USA. Memphis obviously is the main threat and the only other team that will earn a bid short of winning the tournament. all games in Fort Worth. edit: (somewhat) helpful chart https://twitter.com/projsports/status/1633830002134335488?s=46&t=2RtKUZF-7mtwaGnhOLp93A elentar fucked around with this message at 16:49 on Mar 9, 2023 |

IIRC Adams was seen as the brains of the operation behind Beard, especially on defense. He was also one of the few assistants that didn't want to follow Beard to Austin, which Tech fans loved to point out I'm amazed at how quickly the bottom fell out - they were great last season, and handily beat Texas both home and away.

Bill Self is in the hospital. Immediately Twitter rumors that he "had blood clots thanks to the covid vaccine" popped up. But it turns out he was ill and while there they found some blockage that could cause problems down the road so he's most likely getting the balloon to clear that out and change some of his eating habits for long term health. But he's not coaching today and I bet maybe not the Big 12 tournament at all.

Rutgers really played like poo poo at the end of the season the last few years but won the key games they needed to get in to the tourney. This was a big boy win.

We’re back to floating an incredibly bloated tournament again so they can expand it just a little bit, guessing “90 teams” this time means 72 in actual fact: https://sports.yahoo.com/is-bigger-better-ncaa-again-considering-expanding-basketball-tournaments-145126270.html how would you even bracket 90 teams, nobody who suggests that number has ever been a kid making up their own brackets at home and that should be disqualifying for the job edit: Miami scrapes past Wake, lord please do not let Duke win this and gather any sort of momentum elentar fucked around with this message at 20:14 on Mar 9, 2023 |

He was also one of the few assistants that didn't want to follow Beard to Austin, which Tech fans loved to point out Definitely seen as the X's and O's guy to Beard's motivational steerage. But the two worked together. Separated, Beard's energy had no counterweight and Adam's being a loving weirdo was brought into the spotlight. Bottom fell out because Adams can design a defense, but he is poo poo at relating to players and getting them to play with the intensity required for them to execute that defense. Adam's most successful stop as an HC was at a JR College, and that makes sense since he gets new players each year and they don't have enough time to hate him. Honestly don't know where TTU goes from this. Like I don't follow the sport to know the hot names. It's likely to be either fast-rising mid-major coach like Beard was, or "assistant that always shows up on coach lists." I don't think that Kirby goes for a retread, that's not his style and Tech fans were super burned by Gillespie and minorly burned by Tubby. I think there's enough money in the program that they may go after some folks with sustained success at mid-majors. Who knows if those people will listen. Actually, one retread I could see him trying out is Shaka Smart. That's a name that's popped up in a few places.

Congrats to Iowa for finishing 1-6 against Ohio State, Wisconsin and Nebraska, three of the four worst teams in the conference. What a stupid loving team, send us to the NIT. When’s the women’s tournament start?

the mean lunch lady posted:North Texas' coach? Seen McCasland mentioned as the most likely option (after a few folks told us no). I'd fade on him personally as we just forced a guy to resign for quoting the bible at athletes, and he's waaaay more religious than Adams is, but he's also substantially younger and wouldn't try to pull the same stupid poo poo.

UVA needs to kill any possibility of a Duke-UNC final dead right now (and I’m saying that despite it being worse for State, who could definitely beat the Heels again but absolutely will not beat Virginia)

I stayed up to watch the Big Sky final last night and poor NAU was in the final with a 5-13 conference record - but something like 10 of those were by 5 points or fewer and probably half of those were by just 1 point. They stayed within striking distance of Montana State most of the game but just couldn’t get over the hump.
