We Will Collective May Donor Drive - Last Day, Help Needed!
We're in the final hours of a critical push to signup donors for the May Donor Drive. Let your Cyclone friends know!
Please consider giving at We Will Collective.
Isn't that what is already happening today/tonight? Or are you talking about selling tickets to all 3 games as one session?
Reminder that next season there will be 16 teams. So I assume the first day of the tournament will have 4 games going forward, instead of the 2 now with 14 teams?
The NET is obviously a tool but it's not seeded exactly like the NET otherwise teams ranked in the 30s like NC State a couple years ago wouldn't have been left out.
No, they look at the overall picture. The fact is Houston played a weak non-conference schedule compared to Purdue even though they played a tougher conference schedule.
You could argue that Purdue played a tougher non-conference and tougher conference schedule overall over UCONN too. The Big 10 is ranked as the 2nd best conference on Torivick and the Big East is 4th.
I was going off Torvivks definition of a Quad 1-A win.
Somebody posed the question why some people have Purdue as the #1 overall seed even though Houston is #1 in the NET and on Torvik and I'm simply answering the question whether you agree or disagree with the reasoning.
Only 2 of Purdue's 8 Quad 1A wins were against Big 10 teams. They won at Illinois and Wisconsin who both went 8-2 at home in conference play and are known to be extremely difficult places to win.Only enough NIL money for so many games !
a lot of Purdues Q1’s are against crappy BIG teams
So your statement isn't backed up by facts.
Oakland's coach is in his 40th season there. Wow.
Nice….
Arizona and Utah fans are going to be Maaaaad tho!

Wagner back in the tournament for the first time since 2003 with a record of 16-15. Was a 6 seed in their conference tournament.
First round ACC. Team records.
14 - 18; 13 - 19; 18 - 14
18 - 14; 8 - 24; 15 - 17
Just hard to believe what that conference has become.

With an NIL world he's done.
At least Painter or, God forbid, Underwood didn't win it. I personally thought this year was one of Fran's better coaching jobs.Freddy big 10 coach of the year
Nebraska's Fred Hoiberg named Big Ten Co-Coach of the Year; Rienk Mast, Keisei Tominaga honored
Nebraska coach Fred Hoiberg was named the Big Ten Coach of the Year, as voted by media and fellow coaches.omaha.com
Painter technically did win co-coach with fred.
You are probably right but Louisville has a giant arena that makes money for the AD and an alumni base that can spend NIL cash.
Wright was always a great evaluator of talent for his system. Brunson, hart, divicenzo (sp), etc. Maybe I’m punch-drunk with TJ that you can build a top-10 program with guys that just fit.
The ACC is junk minus the top two. I can’t believe he doesn’t give it one more try.
Then technically, I shouldn't be surprised...bummed...but not surprised. Purdue was SUPPOSE to be great this year. COTY awards don't usually get bestowed to those teams.
If Wright (big IF) was getting the itch to coach again Villanova would take him back in a second. Neptune maybe a good coach someday but struggling replacing their legend now and Nova fans would riot if Jay W was available and took a different job.
