"Owned" lol. You have zero clue what you're talking about.

Quote from: brewcity77 on November 27, 2025, 06:45:45 AMBest fan experience. If we play one neutral site in Chicago, fine. Two? At the cost of a worse home non-con slate and no other destination game(s) for fans? That's lazy.

It's not at the cost of a worse non-con slate. It's not lazy, it's college athletics.

UCONN plays 2 neutral court non-con games in NYC and one in Boston. I'm sure you'll spin this into "UCONN has fans all over NYC!" Or "NYC is a destination city!" It's no different than MU. So apparently UCONN's basketball program is clueless and lazy.

Gonzaga is playing Kentucky in Nashville, UCLA in Seattle, and Oregon in Portland. Guess those are more of destination cities than Chicago. Or Gonzaga is lazy, only cares about the dollar, and doesn't care about their fanbase.

Alabama is playing Illinois in Chicago and Arizona in Birmingham.

Illinois plays Alabama in Chicago, UCONN in NYC, Tennessee in Nashville, and Mizzou in St. Louis.

Arizona plays Florida in Las Vegas and Alabama in Birmingham.

Wisconsin plays BYU in Salt Lake City and Villanova in Milwaukee.

BYU plays Villanova in Las Vegas, Wisconsin in Salt Lake City, Cal Baptist in Salt Lake City, Clemson in NYC, and UCONN in Boston.

Literally none of the teams I looked at have less than 2 neutral site, one off games. The whole college basketball world is lazy and running their fans away from their support!

Meh. I need someone focused on March. Not May.

Quote from: Billy Hoyle on November 25, 2025, 12:56:42 PMI asked a friend who works for Players Era when MU was getting invited (and to stop inviting other BE teams over MU, specifically mentioning Creighton), and his response was the MU was one of his first calls but it "wasn't in their interest."

He also said the 26 through 28 fields were almost full (this was in August), but he hoped MU would change its mind. That said, with the tournament expanding, perhaps there will be a spot for MU if they change their mind.

Quote from: MU82 on November 27, 2025, 12:13:02 AMStill, the body of work has to mean something, no? If so, how much time does he get to prove what he's doing will work? If not, what? Fire him now? That seems drastic (and I'm not suggesting you're saying that).


Oh, not even close to suggesting the bolded. I am interested in the "coach the team you have" vs. "coach the team you want" discussions. I think it is a blend of the two, but not necessarily 50/50.

The Yahoo college bball site still has a story up captioned "Gonzaga has the roster to win its first national championship." Might be a good idea to delete it.

Quote from: MU82 on November 27, 2025, 12:19:06 AMThose who think Clark will never be a player might turn out to be tight, but IMHO it is way too early to say he'll never develop into one.

Me and my buddy Clark are tight. And if Shaka plays him for even one minute in our next win, I'm voting for him as SOTG.
