In our latest podcast, we’re joined by Stadium insider Jeff Goodman and talk about a number of subjects, especially the state of the game. Later, we look at a long losing streak that came to a halt, a team that still has a chance to run the table, and what games to look forward to.
Two of the Final Four teams are set, with one of them getting there in a dramatic overtime win despite a performance for the ages by an opposing player, and the other a great story given personnel losses they had to make up for from a talent standpoint.
With two championship games on tap, one was won by a team that needed it and another was not. Plus the tournaments continue with some entertaining games out west, a captain will move on, and another big pickup for a new head coach.
The Big 12 is ready to give us the great finish we have come to expect from it thus far this season, with history or an unlikely champion appearing to be the result. Plus home teams rule one conference, a road losing streak ends elsewhere, and some news in a big off-court story.
In our latest podcast, we talk about a lot of what has happened in the ACC and SEC, including the Big 12/SEC Challenge, whether or not Kentucky is turning a corner, as well as the story at Michigan State.
Friday was not a good day for the sport, and it had nothing to do with the limited on-court action. Plus one mid-major team remains undefeated in their conference, three teams are bunched up in another, and a coach is staying in an old home area for a little longer.
Chris Beard may have left for two jobs in less than a month, but cases of college basketball coaches leaving for better jobs still happen far less than the urban legend says they do.
We talk with Ted about the Portsmouth Invitational, which had a pretty good roster of seniors this time around, and then look at some developments in the world of coaching, including one very curious move that leaves a school in a tough spot for its new head coach.
The fifth entrant in NCAA Division I’s college basketball postseason debuted on Monday with the first-ever Vegas 16 tournament tipping off. If you’re a history buff, you really should check it out now because…if the event is relying heavily on ticket sales, the odds of there being a second one are not very good.
The Final Four is set after an amazing comeback and another team having a little too much for the opponent. Plus a head coach leaves after a long time at one school, more coaching changes, and a championship game is set in another tournament.
