I saw a stat that the Mizzou coach didn't win a true road game in his three year tenure at the school. If that's true, that's an amazing stat that may not be matched.

It's true and the only neutral court wins have been against Chaminade, some other team I forget, and Auburn last night.

They won @Chaminade in his first year if that counts. Maybe it doesn't because it was at their weird tournament? Or maybe it doesn't because they're a D2 school?

It's been so loving bad at Mizzou.

Who am I kidding, I'm taking Villanova vs. SMU for the title because why the hell not, my team ain't playing in it AGAIN

"“It was remarkable execution,” Beilein said, of the way his team exited that plane. “If our team could execute like that, we would never lose a game.”"

I expected this from Harbaugh, not Beilein.

He probably has the same people who got him hired blowing that smoke up his rear end and thinks anyone other than that particular group will believe it after three years of poo poo. It's a petty statement, but the number of people who will actually believe it is vanishingly small and he's never going to get hired by Missouri again as a coach so, whatever. It's over, we're free.

Now to gently caress up the next coach signing. I suppose we should all be watching the B10 tournament and cheering against Indiana today. Ewww, they're playing Wisconsin. Oh well, it's for the greater good.

It's time to give into the Chicago AAU Coach terrorists and let them have input in Illini coaching. They are successfully freezing out the program from recruiting upstate and it seems to be working.

Let them have a voice in the process, it can't be any worse then now.

Illinois fired John Groce. Josh Whitman was willing to make Monty Williams one of the highest paid NCAA coaches and he said no.

That's promising at least, he's willing to spend. Might be a surprising hire if that's true and not go cheap for another mid major coach.

If you're not willing to lick the boot, then really why are you in politics lol? Everything is a cycle of just getting stomped on so why do you want to lose to it over and over, just submit like me, I'm very intelligent.
UConn's season ends with a losing record for the first time since the 80s, but on the other hand, if they hadn't gotten into foul trouble against Cincy, they could've been in the conference championship.

Strange year, but at least they bring back some good players next year, including three players who got really bad injuries early on.
