Cursed location for them: "Sacramento State was the last regular sports tenant to call Memorial home, playing basketball there from 1996–2000. The Hornets lost 34 consecutive games—a sports legacy best forgotten."

Saw a blurb that a bunch of players with no eligibility are entering the portal to keep their options open pending a couple court cases.

"...underpaid and already doing the state a charity"

Boo-fucking-hoo. :roll:

I know we've moved beyond putting similar schools or even geographically proximate schools in conferences, BUT...keeping all the small private schools in the WCC makes much more sense to me than bringing some of them into the MW.

You don't always know from an interview. I've got an employee who interviewed beautifully and is a huge pain in the ass to work with.

Hot take: it was never ok to assault people or throw chairs.

The fact that Bobby Knight lasted as long as he did is a testament to America's unhealthy relationship with sports and sports figures, IMO. Nothing to do with "woke" or "PC" or any of that.

Cynical take, but, I think, ultimately correct: if you aren't in the P4 right now, you can get fucked. Mid-major conference champs in the play-in games? Losing-record teams in tournaments? It's pretty clear than the NCAA isn't interested in the "little" schools.

Yeah, Coach Baugh was brought in to replace Des Abeyta and work with the bigs.

Jen Gross has 5 assistant coaches this year.

Including one specifically for working with bigs!

Every Davis player had at least one turnover--team effort! Only a fun box score fact because they won. :lol:

#3 and #4 teams head to the conference championship; gotta love March.

Four blocks for Norris!

Woot woot!

Ha, I went with a really big number, and it wasn't even big enough. How many freakin' teams are in the SEC?!

Morgan signed a training camp contract with the Chicago Sky.

edit:

Cynic's take: UCSD will 100% get screwed over in that situation so that they can give the 12th place SEC team a spot in lieu of two BW teams.
