For two weeks, nearly every team in Division I will get a chance to earn a bid to the NCAA Tournament. The road to the Big Dance starts with 30 conference tournaments — the Ivy League gives its auto bid to the regular-season champ. We preview each conference tournament as […]
Selection Sunday is here. We’re down to the final hours before the selection committee reveals this year’s NCAA Tournament bracket, and there’s still potential for drama this afternoon. Based on my latest projections, Tennessee should be very nervous. The Volunteers are the last team in right now, which means they’d […]
Friday provided plenty of surprises, with a potential No. 1 seed, Kansas, going down, to a team that’s moving up the S-curve, Baylor. Among the non-power conferences, the WAC favorite, Nevada, fell to Louisiana Tech late last night, opening the door for New Mexico State to claim the conference’s automatic […]
Before Friday’s Big East Tournament semifinal games, a lot of talk centered on the matchup a night earlier between Notre Dame and South Florida, a game played at a very deliberate pace. What impact might that have on the Irish’s matchup with Louisville?

A look back at the first round of the ACC Tournament, where there was success among first-year head coaches, Maryland had a couple of bright spots in its win, NCAA implications in an upcoming game, and Virginia Tech battling through another close game.

That doesn’t seem so bad, and a few teams had worse records, but look deeper and you see a team that, quite simply, was not good.
Here’s a look at how I voted for All-District 1 and All-America, as well as major awards, for the U.S. Basketball Writers Association. The ballot was due at midnight this past Sunday.
