  1. I don't think the paths of Bilas and Lunardi cross much (nor would I expect them to).
  2. He probably has help but I think he's hands-on in what he does. I was a little surprised at what he said.
  3. Bilas said this morning that he thinks both Oklahoma and Texas will make the field.
  4. Bierce, you have a better handle on this than I do. How many bid-stealers are out there? Or, phrased better, how many conference leaders below the P5 look like locks no matter what?
  5. So, too many moving pieces, but it seems as though Ole Miss could get to 5 with a win at Florida and then a win by either South Carolina (at Tennessee) or LSU (vs. A&M). In other words, it's a long shot. On the "possible" front, there's a chance of Vandy as the No. 12 against Texas if it loses at Georgia and Arkansas beats Mississippi State. Most likely second-round opponent would be A&M.
  6. I am kinda liking Texas's chances for at least Dayton if they beat OU and No. 12 (which I have assumed would be Arkansas). Of course, I want to see a bunch of L4I and maybe a couple of L4B lose. I was gonna check on No. 12 but the mred site is being updated. Rats.
  7. Invariably makes a bad first step and, as you note, is behind the play. Sometimes happens because he goes over screens, which is admirable. Bottom line, his man is open and usually can score.
  8. Ole Miss looks like it's going to push Tennessee here. Brakefield is having a good game, but he just walked on a spinarama to make it 63-61
  9. Not liking the scores I am seeing tonight.
  10. I always treat the seeds as a group. If my team is in this group, who might they play? And I leave it at that. Where they might play, what they'd have to play down the road... that's just a WAG.
  11. Joe usually has the right participants, just not in the right spots. But where he might be wrong is on a team such as Texas, with not a great resume and having to impress at the very end as other teams drop out. They literally have to be the last team standing. Then it would be on to Dayton.
  12. Not in the case of a job like this, in a league like this.
  13. That appears to be correct. Details were obtained by an Iowa TV station. That's one year of his new salary.
  14. Serious inquiries? Nah. But it's more likely that those guys weren't interested while RT was still the coach. Why should they be?
  15. That's the conundrum. Just asking, has CDC found anyone like that?
  16. A lot of the coaches they'll be looking at are going to be around 60. I am not going to automatically eliminate a guy with his NBA record. NBA games are won by finding advantages and pounding on them relentlessly. If a guy can produce at that level, he can X and O. Will he recruit? That is the question. He crumbled at Mizzou and there were rumors. I assume he's good now.
  17. Actually, it seems like it was easy.
  18. Whatever you do, don't let the facts get in your way.
  19. So he's actually better than you thought, huh?
  20. Who has the higher winning percentage between them?
  21. How good do you have to be to be more than "nothing special in the pros"?
  22. If I were arguing against Donovan being a candidate, you might have a point, but I didn't argue that. I said that Donovan won't come back, but people still ask for him. Snyder went pro after a rocky finish at MU. If that were the only thing on his resume, I would question that. But, if a successful NBA HC (which QS is) is interested in your college job, you have to give him a serious look, not wishcast about a guy who is not going to be interested.
  23. Don Haskins made UTEP into a pretty good job, and it withstood quite a bit of time, but now is not that time.
  24. How many guys bring up Billy Donovan, like he's going to come back to college when the basketball world knows he hates recruiting and wants to be in the NBA? (Answer: Too many.) Anyone who is thinking about coming back to college, regardless of his situation, after a decade as a HC in the NBA, has experience that most candidates don't.
  25. Isn't that kind of like hiring RT?
