If I had to choose a team to hope wins the whole thing, it would be Gonzaga.
x2 on this
Will pull for Cinci and SMU as conference brothers
Kansas is always fun to watch
I'll root against KY and UNC just because.

RE: Which Team(s) Will You Root for in the NCAA Tourney?
I'm a longtime follower of ncaa sports and knew everything about every team out there, but i stopped watching all college sports after the 2014 season. It's my way of protesting. Basketball is my favorite sport, yet i will not watch any of the march madness just like i didn't watch the college football 4 team playoff. I still go to tiger football games and occasionally will go to a tiger bball game.
Unless the tigers are involved, i just don't care anymore.
I really enjoy all the extra time i have to spend doing other things in life.

Notre Dame, MTSU, ETSU and Wichita.
SMU doesn't get full respect for how good they are being in a "non power conference" so I hope they make a run. Same with Gonzaga, even though they got a one seed

"There are certain non negotiables where I will pull you - mostly effort stuff. If you don't dive for a loose ball, I'm pulling you, if you get mauled on a rebound for lack of effort, I'm pulling you. I'm not pulling you for missed shots."
One noticeable diff from Pastner's Tigers to Tubby's, Tubby's did not get on the floor for loose balls, esp. the Lawson's. I won't say that they never did, but they were very hesitant to do so.
I noticed that about Dedric. Saw KJ scrambling some, but don't think Dedric ever got down on the floor all year. Jimario and Keon lived on the floor. Markel, Jeremiah also got dirty.
One noticeable difference I saw was Tubby didn't pull guys for missed shots. Maybe a reflection of the rotation, or maybe more similar to Cal's philosophy.

Pulling for UNC and Kentucky to get knocked out in the second round. I'll take the third round. I'm betting their fans buy all the tickets for the Memphis regional. Then they get beat, and I can get some discounted scalps.

I used to, as well, when I despised Calipari. However, after our humbling experiences since he left, I now appreciate how hard and tirelessly he worked to build up the Memphis brand while here. Although I may not now actually cheer for UK, I don't pull against them and also have a new-found respect for Calipari.

It's tough to get excited about it when you don't have a dog in the fight.
