For one night at least, it felt like the 1990s or even the early 2000s in Winston-Salem. Plus the Spartans rally to take over second, the Aztecs and Sooners bounce back, and the Titans won’t be in any postseason play this year despite their best efforts.

The Morning Dish – Tuesday, February 11, 2020
A battle for second place was easily the best of the big TV games on the night, with the winning team getting a big boost from an emerging role player. Plus a mismatch in the Big 12, a clear leader in the Patriot League, and a Cyclone is done for the season and perhaps his college career.
The Morning Dish – Wednesday, January 22, 2020
A great season to date had a day with two unfortunate events, one on and one off the court, that one can only hope won’t sap all the joy from the season. Plus a legendary coach passes on, another incident in a big road win, and one team stays undefeated while another rebounds from a bad loss.

The last game of the day was a big one in Ames, where the home team got a much-needed quality win. Plus the other team lost more than a game, an ACC power’s scoring struggles continue, and two teams got big road wins on the day.
The Morning Dish – Friday, November 29, 2019
Michigan got the first big win under its new head coach, and now has a chance for another one right behind it. Plus the Orlando Invitational gets going, lots of drama in a tournament out west, and a cool story coming out of the big upset in Durham a couple of nights earlier.
2018-19 Big 12 Post-Mortem
For the first time in 15 years, the Big 12 champion was not Kansas. The league was once again atop conference rankings, though, led by a program whose rise the past couple years very nearly resulted in a national title.
The Morning Dish – Wednesday, March 27, 2019
Half of the field headed to New York in the NIT is known, and both could use this as a springboard into next season. Plus more action in the CIT, coaching changes take center stage and more players are on the move as well.
The Morning Dish – Sunday, March 17, 2019
The Pac-12 champions were expected to have a chance at that before the season, though not quite in the fashion they did it. Plus championship games rule the day, a few more semifinals set the stage, and one more coaching change.
