I don't think it's out of reach to think if the cats go 3-0 in this stretch that we end up at the very least as the third ranked, but could even get to 2 or 1. Everyone else has some really tough games as well, I see most of the teams in front of us dropping another game in the next couple weeks.

Wouldn't that be incredible?! Rooting for a top ranked uc team for the first time in so long. Would really drive the mick haters away for a while.
 
3 straight 20 rebound games for Jermerrio Jones for New Mexico State. Insane. He's only 6'5" too. He has a triple double this year too.

The committee better seed them properly. I'd have no interest in playing them in a 3/14. We should obviously win that but still. They're legit.

They'd have to lose a couple more games to drop below a 12 seed. They are 1-2 in Group 1 with only one bad loss. That's a much better resume than any 13+ seed.
 
Saw on ESPN that Ole Miss is letting Andy Kennedy go after the season ends. He had a pretty good run there.
 
Eastern Tennessee state just lost, so I believe that makes us the longest active win streak in the country

"[Cincinnati] are, in short, where they belong, and with a great coach they have been topping out with relatively successful seasons. It is good for them, but it is not good enough for UConn."

What a colossal myopic douche bag. You know for half a second I kind of felt bad for UCONN and wanted them to improve into a good team for the league but **** that. I Hope they are terrible forever and slide back into obscurity like UNLV.
 
Is the Big 10 Tournament a week early with the mid majors? Did I hear that right? I don't remember where I heard that but what is that all about?

UCONN's biggest problem isn't Kevin Ollie or The American. Their biggest problem is playing basketball. They are a bad team with a few good players, and seemingly love playing hero ball. All you need to do is look at how many assist they get on average. The American has made strides without UCONN and Memphis. If they think leaving the American and going to The Big East will somehow all of a sudden make them great again then they are more disillusioned than any fanbase in all of college basketball.

I would love for Memphis to do well again, which I think they will, but at this point UCONN is close to insufferable. When UC and UCONN went to the American they could have both stayed on track. Hopefully everyone in the league keeps getting better, and maybe UCONN will too. Then when the Big 12 expands/breaks up we'll see where the pieces fall.

Regarding your first paragraph, how does that not come down to coaching? He has been terrible since Napier graduated. His teams with the players he recruited have been mediocre at best.
 
Yes, that is correct. I believe it’s at MSG and BIG East as priority.

That's going to be so weird. Oh well, I'll be in Vegas watching UC and being forced to watch KU with those fans. Might even head to the Pac 12 Tournament bc a couple Arizona fans are tagging along as well. It's coming up so fast!
