Re: Head Coaches that we should consider

Somebody said Bryce Drew at GCU makes $3.2M a year. We can't compete with that.

Nice video on the 1-3-1 zone

One of the interesting things about this is how once the dribbles is stopped by a trap, some of the scenarios actually have them abandon the trap to then cover other areas.

Re: Purdue -10.5

This will be the first time in 4 years that Purdue gets bounced by a single digit seed They could still get bounced by Oregon in the Elite 8, Or Colorado, Oakland or NC State in the Final Four! What you talkin' about, Willis. With USU vs SDSU in the Finals, the conference earns another $10M.

Re: 55 years

Someone should do "wins above expectation" or "score versus the betting line". It would take into account your seed and how much the betting odds thought your were going to win to assess whether you are overperforming or underperforming.

Re: NAR Tom Izzo

Besides UVA displacing Indiana State and wanting UVA to lose by as much as possible. Mich State is the other team I would love to see get beat by 20+.

They tanked at the end of the season (2-5 with 3 Q2 losses where they were favored), had only 3 Q1 wins, and IMO should have been an 11-12 at best.

That would mean that 5 teams played 4 games each and one team played 3 games. That is 23 game shares at about $2M each. There is a perfect world in which the ...
