I thought our board was bad, but man the WVU guys are in pure shambles about this team, since it's a typical Huggins team that can play decent defense, but cannot score worth a damn, also have a lot of guys who make a lot of stupid bone headed mistakes, like dumb turnovers, etc. I'm starting to wonder if any team in the country is actually good with fundamentals to be honest.
UCLA confuses me, loses to a GOD AWFUL UNC team this year, but sweeps Colorado and has clipped Arizona once. Definitely think they gotta win the tournament, but I don't see a Mick Cronin coached team being able to pull off that feat.

Conference tournaments aren't necessarily kryptonite for Cronin's teams. Even last year, Oregon stormed through the Pac-12 Tournament after sleepwalking through their regular season. Thing is, if UCLA somehow sweeps the Arizona schools at home and wins at USC, be prepared to hear their name mentioned as a possible NCAA Tournament at-large contender. And one likely headed to Dayton.

This UConn situation is rather nasty:

A little bit nasty, but I still think UConn is in the right legally. At least I THINK so. Some of our lawyers and legal experts will undoubtedly know more.
So, for those that don't know Kevin Ollie was fired by UConn and later received a show cause for NCAA violations. Because of that, UConn is claiming that they do not have to buy out his contract and don't owe him any money. That seems right to me. I can only assume that Ollie's lawyers are subpoenaing Dan Hurly to ask him when exactly UConn had been in touch with him about becoming the head coach in the hopes that if it was before UConn knew about the NCAA allegations that they cannot claim he was terminated for cause.
Here is my question. Does it matter?? He would have been terminated for cause as soon as they did know. If there was any language at all in his contract about following NCAA rules, and I cannot imagine that there wasn't, then even if they didn't know then I still don't see why they'd owe him anything since they can definitively prove that he breached the contract."You can't fix stupid."

Dayton couldn't overtake Gonzaga in the AP poll. Only nudged up one spot (passing SD State). Do you think there's any chance the Selection Committee would have a region with Dayton as the #1 seed and SD State as the #2 seed? I doubt it.
