Some tater fans wanted to fire bruce because they think they can make a run at Pitino, lol.
Uh, which Pitino?
Senior. Sometimes analysis of candidates needs to go deeper than what conference they currently coach in and what their current salary is.

My point was that, more generally, Richard is actually in the stratosphere of realistic canddiates.

Ju Howard might be looking for a job. Nice massive choke job today. Up 17 with about 11 minutes to play and lost by 5. I could have done that. Did their bubble burst? Probably not.

Kind of bizarre how much the TCU/UT game mirrored the UM/IU game.

Don’t know if Auburn is just cold, but man are they struggling. Getting smoked by an average A&M team.

An Auburn loss would seem to suggest we're a win tonight away from being locked into the 1-line.

I kinda would argue we're already locked into a 1. I think KU is the #3 overall seed right now. Baylor is #4. Baylor gets leapfrogged if Duke, Kentucky or Wisconsin advance to their championship.

If - and it’s a big if - the committee really does look primarily at wins, Duke isn’t moving into the 1 line.

KU is a 1-seed lock with a win tonight.

Duke's resume is such light work.

Sucks almost as bad as Scott Drew.

I think KU could be the 2nd overall 1 seed if they win the Big 12 tourney and Zona doesn’t win the pac 12. This would give KU a path of Fort Worth and San Antonio to get to the F4.

I think we have to win tonight to be locked in. Right now we have a nearly identical resume as Baylor. Same record. Same Quad 1 record. Tied in the regular season. Split head to head. One more Q1 win feels like it would seal the deal.

We would take more fans to Chicago than San Antonio.

I think this as well. I’m also not sure winning the PAC 12 would/should do it for Arizona. Particularly if we will have picked up another win over Tech.

Also - and I know I’m not allowed to question the narrative - our wins would be miles and miles and miles better than Gonzaga’s.

That we would even be in the convo for #1 overall shows how wide open this is (and how down it is).

Arizona does have the win in Champaign. We have nothing like that.

They're going to try and put Duke in Chicago because it's hometown of rat.

Hypothetically beating duke in the Elite Eight in Chicago is so delicious that I could go ahead and die before the F4 game and be happy.

Man, Auburn is trending in the wrong direction at the wrong time of the year.

Aren't they kind of just 2021 USC (whom did go to E8)?

Ok, but.

I think our and Baylor’s resumes are clearly the best. And we’re not done stacking wins.
