RE: 2020-2021 College Basketball Season Thread
Have you considered drawing up some plays to share with the staff?

Yes but I’d almost rather be the 6 seed and have to play that extra game.

ESPN is not bumping their schedule for a Tulane/UC game that is scheduled 3 days before tip. Another game would need to be cancelled for us to get on the main network.

I would prefer to be opposite Houston, so hopefully we don’t get stuck in the 4/5 spot.

Houston falls to Wichita State. Bearcats have a chance to tie Houston in the loss column if they can pull the upset.

Hopefully that’s the resume boost Wichita needs to make the tournament.

UH looked like they would blow out WSU jumping on top 28-16. WSU roared back and took the led by 8 or 10. UH got close but never got the lead back. Game sealed when WSU intercepted and drove for layup with about 10 seconds to go. UH players stopped the layup with Fragrant Foul (Ejected) 2 shots and ball.
Strange ending as UH missed shot and WSU rebounded but held the ball and started walking off. Should have been called travelling but UH players were leaving the court and refs looked at each other and walked off also.

So much for teams not being able to win after a coaching change and multiple players transferring out. WSU is now in first place and deserving of a top 25 ranking.

I also believe they have a benefited from still maintains a home court advantage while schools like UC haven’t been able to recreate that.
I have been really hard on Brannen because I had my doubts on his fit with the program and the staff’s ability to recruit and maintain a roster.
I am not upset about players leaving because they left, I am upset that they recruited these guys in the first place. Cronin always talked about culture and made sure not to recruit guys the upset that culture. Sometimes it lead bringing in some real low level players. On the other hand it kept UC playing at a solid NCAA tournament level. Brannen seemingly needs to find guys that are super talented that you are forced to play or guys that know their role and fit the system. Better yet find super talented guys that fit the program which is what Mick had for few years with Clark and Evans.
Right now the roster is a mess but this spring provides a chance to fix it quickly.

Unless Houston end up as the two seed of course. Then the 5 seed is just fine.

Wow! CIT here we come! Hang the banner!
I would hope UC would take and even pursue the CBI this year if the opportunity comes up.
1. This group needs games.
2. A lot of power programs are struggling so maybe this is the year you could get a nice field.
