is jaime dixon out at pitt?
is jaime dixon out at pitt?
Chronic tournament underachiever. Another painful loss for them, even earlier than usual. With a move to the ACC and the fact that Pitt has invested heavily in their basketball program (leveling their football field for the basketball arena), I wonder if Jamie Dixon is out? At the very least, he must be on the very hot seat, right?

Has anyone found a good international stream yet? Thankfully the Michigan game is on CBS, so that won't be an issue, but I'm definitely missing out on some crucial action for the rest of the day.

I'm begining to think when a team is in Davidson's position (up 7 or so under 1:30) they're better off fouling than allowing an opponent to hit three 3's in last 90 seconds,turn the game literally into a FT shooting contest.Hard to overcome a 7 point lead when both teams take turns shooting 2 FTs

Because nobody else that would have been a worthy candidate played like they wanted it. It's kind of hard to not give the #1 team in the nation anything but a 1 seed.

Seems like we should be able to filter for that better
Seems like we should be able to filter for that better
I'd bet that if Indiana, Michigan, Ohio State, Michigan State or Wisconsin played in the WCC, they'd all have 0 or 1 conferences losses and they'd all have 0-4 losses total. Just because you win a kazillion games against no one doesn't mean you should be a 1 seed. /preachingtothechoir

I completely agree.

I completely agree. Personally I think they should have been a 3 seed. I'm just thinking that's what the committee probably thought and teams like Duke that could have been a 1 decided to flame out.

Gonzaga is playing anything
Gonzaga is playing anything
Gonzaga is playing anything unlike the #1 team in America. I'm sure Southern is a good team in is own right, but if Gonzaga is as good as the polls say they are, this game should have been over a long time ago.

this Gonzaga-Southern game is the best play-in game I've ever seen
....wait a second
I did something similar with my 6 year old. He's doing alright for now but he has Gonzaga and Kansas falling in the "second" round and Albany in his final four.
