Bracketology- Joe Lunardi

J
Sorry if already posted/discussed, but wanna hear what some of ya'll think of this.

http://www.espn.com/mens-college-basketball/bracketology

I normally really enjoy following Joe Lunardi's Bracketology on ESPN throughout the season and generally agree with his placement of Iowa State over the past 6-7 years as the seasons have progressed, but this year I'm not quite sure I understand why he seems to be undervaluing the Clones pretty consistently.

Currently on the 5 seed line and I think we've been there the last handful of brackets he's released. I would guess right now Iowa State should probably be closer to being right on the border of a 3/4, especially considering their NCAA Net ranking currently- #13. More curious than anything.

Other School/Sports Teams apparel

cycopath25
Do any of you other people like to pick up apparel of teams that you necessarily follow/support? I like to pick up merchandise of mascots I find funny or interesting or cool looking. For example I just ordered a Upper Iowa University Peacocks shirt. I'd like a Drake University shirt of their throwback uniforms they just released.

Other shirts items I possess:
Simpson College (My last name)
Akron Rubber Ducks (Family from that area and like the name)
Rocky Ford Meloneers (Brother in Law used to coach there) FYI: Their gym is called the Melon Dome

What do you folks have?

Friday OT: 40 degrees of separation

cyclones500
Hi!

@Angie is occupied this week and she asked me to serve as backup host for F-OT.

So I’ll play Joan Rivers to her Johnny Carson.

This week’s theme: Regardless of where you live, the temperature always will be within a 40-degree range, for the rest of your life. What temperature span would you select?

Exceptions: When you take a vacation or if you have a secondary residence, weather will adhere to reality in those cases.

You may set the range as “inclusive” (i.e., 36-95, instead of 55-95) or do it "like a normal person would" (such as 20 to 60).

Explanation regarding your choice is encouraged.

11. Iowa St.
⤴️ Last week: No. 18
Back in early January, there was feeling within the Big 12 that Iowa State (18-5) had the most talent in the league. You look up now and it's not even arguable. From Marial Shayok to Lindell Wigginton to Cam Lard to Talen Horton-Tucker to Tyrese Haliburton, Steve Prohm's done a tremendous job building out a very fun roster. The Cyclones are Final Four contenders a season after finishing last in the Big 12.

Arizona B-Ball: Phelps Suspended, Miller Close

Althetuna
Arizona athletic director Dave Heeke said in a statement that Miller “fully supports” the decision to fire Phelps, but Goodman would not be surprised if Miller is the next one to go.

After all, Phelps is Miller’s second assistant coach to be suspended/fired for misconduct. Ex-assistant Book Richardson was fired before last season after his involvement in the college basketball corruption scandal, and he recently pleaded guilty to bribery and could spend 18 to 24 months in prison.

NCAA Bylaw 11.1.1 states that the “the head coach will be held accountable for violations in the program unless he or she can rebut the presumption of responsibility.”
