They’re going to have to cancel one day of the First Four at this rate because they’re running out of P5 teams worth half of an 11 seed.

Strong Wolpfack vibes, although it lacked Gottfried and DSJ walking off arm in arm.

Frustrating USC men's basketball season ends with overtime loss in Big Ten tournament USC completed a three-week spiral with an 83-79 overtime loss to Washington during the Big Ten tournament on Wednesday, ending the Trojans' season.

Filled in on USC for the LA Times and … disappointing season ends in conference tournament loss? Bah gawd that’s my music!

Terps crashing out on a Wednesday, never would have happened in the ACC.

Then again, I'm helping out with a USC team that includes Jacob Cofie (Virginia), Kam Woods (NC State) and Rodney Rice (VT), so how far have I traveled, really?

Virginia Tech and Stanford did not get the memo on “we’re trying to get more ACC teams into the NCAA tournament” apparently.

Oh the original post referred to Trump's fixation on "one judge who knew nothing about sports." Phillips knows the deal.

Wasn't saying it was your whim. Quite the opposite!

And keeps blaming “one judge” for NIL liberalization when it was actually the California legislature that broke the seal (provoked by @andyhre.bsky.social) and the rest of the country quickly followed either by law or (as in NC) executive order.

In other words … the opposite of one person’s whim.

Remembering Longtime Wake Forest Men’s Basketball Analyst Mark Freidinger - Wake Forest University Athletics Freidinger served as a men's basketball commentator for 35 years calling numerous memorable Demon Deacon moments.

Catching up with Dinger was one of the highlights of any Wake Forest game. One of the people who made the ACC the ACC. Incredible basketball mind. Very sad. godeacs.com/news/2026/3/...

I would absolutely be up there tonight … if they didn’t sell it as tickets. As so often happens.

Keep it safe tonight. Hold down her spot.

That’s an awful lot of words that don’t include “Jaccob Slavin”

Using Torvik’s Teamcast tool and allowing for the fact that it’s a broad estimation, even if Miami gags against UMass this shouldn’t be a close call by the numbers.

Miami 's perfect regular season is more than enough: RedHawks are an NCAA Tournament lock after win vs. Ohio The feel-good story in college basketball has officially grown into one of the best stories in American sports in 2026

The Miami detractors and cynics have entirely lost the plot. This team is THE example of the magic and allure of college basketball.

And now, the RedHawks are an NCAA Tournament LOCK.

A big column that puts into perspective why 31-0 has become one of the stories of the year in American sports.

An entire event where dozens of rich people show up to say Democrats, judges and current athletes are the problem and players really need to go back to making no money. Why are we even acting as if this is a real attempt at solutions?
