So….you’re saying there's a chance?
 
Crazy night in the conference.
Now I feel less terrible about losing in Manhattan and more terrible about losing to Baylor.

I learned something a couple of days ago. College (men and women) ONLY have 5 second closely guarded while holding the ball. NFHS still has while holding and dribbling. Thus in high school if closely guarded you can catch the ball, hold for 4 seconds, dribble for 4 seconds and hold for 4 seconds. In college, if you are dribbling, there is no count. It was explained, that is due to the shot clock. It was felt there is no need to have the closely guarded while dribbling, but kept the holding portion for when teams trap and contain a player with the ball and they are having difficulty getting a pass off.

That makes sense to me. If high schools ever all go to shot clock (which I have liked in Iowa so far), I would like to see that change for that level too.
This may be how they are supposed to call it but watch games and the way it is called is different per official. I still go back to we have a shot clock so there is no need for the 5 second rule. Much like 3 seconds in the lane that is again not a consistent call.
 
Competing meltdowns in Lubbock.

Tech up 1 in the final minute, and Gerlich straight tackles an OSU player who had grabbed a rebound. Intentional foul (2 shots and ball).

OSU only makes one, to tie. Ensuing possession, 27 seconds of dribble and a drive that results in no shot, and a shot clock violation.

Tech then misses a 15-footer at buzzer.

Off to overtime.

More panicky hoops.

OSU up 8 halfway through OT, didn't score again. Tech ties it up 67-67.

OSU gets a steal with :05 left and chucks it up immediately from half court instead of driving in for a much higher percentage shot.

OT #2.
 
Some additional perspective…from ESPN.

UCF tied for first in the American Athletic Conference last season with South Florida, and Houston was third.

BYU is the most successful women's program joining the Big 12. The Cougars have made 14 NCAA tournament appearances and advanced to the Sweet 16 twice (2002 and 2014). This past season, as a No. 11 seed, they upset No. 6 seed Rutgers in the first round before falling to eventual NCAA runner-up Arizona, a No. 3 seed. Nine of the Cougars' NCAA tournament appearances have come under current coach Jeff Judkins, who has had only one losing season since taking over in 2001-02.

Whatever source you're quoting here is at least a year old. BYU's tourney upset of Rutgers happened in 2021, and that coach is retired now. BYU lost all of its talent to the portal or graduation last season. UCF also had a coaching change and lost most of their talent as well. So last season isn't at all representative of the quality of team that will be joining the B12 next year. Maybe the new coaches just need time to build programs. Time will tell.

^This. The newcomers suck in WBB and will be bottom of the league starting out. The "new" league will be fine in MBB and okay in football but there's no way to spin WBB as anything but weaker in a league that was already "down".

Current NET for these teams.
Houston 75
BYU 106
UFC 160
Cinci 184

By NET they would be 10th, 11th, 12th and 13th in the Big 12 with only TCU being worse. It's possible that being in a better league will help their recruiting but that's going to be years to see if it comes to fruition.
