  1. And they have Nate Oats as their coach.
  2. I mean to be fair, the empty seats you’re seeing are just the Nawf Coarlina fans who haven’t arrived yet since the lower bowl is divided into quadrants for the fans.
  3. It’s okay, BeardIP and fatty don’t say DEI with a hard I at the end.
  4. The tip times for these games are fucking wack.
  5. There’s also been some chatter—albeit on social media—about women going back to neutral site games for the 1st and 2nd rounds considering the rise of popularity in women’s basketball since the last time they were doing neutral sites. I don’t know that this will happen again. The NCAA likes those sold our arenas the home team provides them in the 1st and 2nd rounds. If anything, they’ll just move around the S16/EE games and rotate that.
  6. Well the problem with the hotels is: 1.) I honestly don’t believe the Women’s and Men’s Selection Committees talk to each other about stuff like this. And from what I’ve gathered, the committees don’t tell the NCAA anything until they’ve selected the teams. But really it’s this: 2.) The Men’s selection sites are done a few years in advance. The NCAA can reserve those rooms for the 8 teams they know will be shipped there. With the Women, you have no idea who is going where until Selection Sunday (exceptions of course i.e. teams like Texas, Souf Carolina, Stanford, etc know they are hosting). With Gonzaga/Utah, they could have been flipped easily. But flipping those seeds is a big deal because of home advantage, which goes back to my point #1. Then the question becomes how ethical is it to flip seeds because there are no realistic hotel rooms available in the area for 8 more teams and their fans? I’ve just questioned why the NCAA is so enamored with Spokane as a host. Seems like they are hosting the men’s side all the time. Just keep it on a rotating basis of west coast major hubs—LA, Vegas, Portland, SLC, and Seattle. That would be like if they made Amarillo 1st and 2nd round host site
  7. It’ll be interesting to see what comes out. They tried to have a press conference today about this but it was interrupted by someone from the Idaho freedom foundation. Apparently IC-Irvine’s team had incidents as well
  8. Have you met the poster 6th Street and his drive-bys on the basketball board that are the worst takes?
  9. Classic mark Kellogg coached team. His teams were like that at SFA. He’s tied with someone else for the most Ts I had to give to a coach lol. But Iowa is getting cooked on social media because Clark did a lot of fouling herself and got away with it. Also most people are finding they don’t like Clark’s antics, which I applaud what her dad did the other day and told her to shut up doing the game,
