Coach at D-III Concordia-Chicago fired after six players hospitalized following hard practice held as punishment for curfew violations.

Concordia athletes rent out the house behind me, curious if I can get any inside info on this from them.

This the Concordia in River Forest?  Grew up there.  Was on that campus all the time as a kid using their sports facilities.

I recall him doing an MU game but could be wrong.

Again Brian Butch is an announcer. Ben Brust is a radio personality. Butch has done several MU games the past 2 years. Brust is the author of the tweet

I do know, Newsie is right on you knowing ball.

I think Brust stepped in on a radio broadcast for the Bucks. Or maybe did radio for UW.

I think they are going to target Wisconsin native Saul Phillips, the former Ohio and NDSU coach and current coach at Northern State.  The AD at UWGB hired Phillips when he was at Northern State too.  (He did not hire Will Ryan at GB though...)

The only complicating factor here is that Will Ryan was an assistant for Phillips, and Phillips played for Bo Ryan at Platteville.

He'd be a good hire, but that relationship might be a hurdle as you said. Beyond that, I have no idea. Grzesk?

I'm watching KSU/ISU.  Two good teams but we have more spurtability and explosiveness.

He wasn’t my first choice, but I think MU would have been a much better fit than Oklahoma. That seemed to be a bit of a strange fit from the start.

I’m happy for Jamie Dixon to be having success at TCU. Pitt has to be kicking themselves.

Key to beating Kstate. Play D and force Nowell into all those wild shots he kept trying that literally never had a prayer in going in.

KState strikes me as a team that will be wildly overseeded in March or fizzles dramatically before we get there

They meet all the criteria for a 3-seed that goes out the first weekend.

Fun team, fun season so far.  Not the 5th best team in the nation

I still have no idea who the best team is in the B12.  Iowa St. has a really solid starting 5 although Klaucher can be a little hot/cold.  Defensively and on the glass they're really good.  Maybe TCU has the highest ceiling?

Good, not great team.  Sitting 25th in KenPom, they don’t have any elite numbers.  Not a knock, just reality.  Doesn’t mean they will be knocked off as a 3-seed but they’d be a few seed-lines higher than the analytics think they should be.  Sort of like the Badgers last year

Same- including the most chlorinated swimming pool in the universe.  My parents have lived in a condo across the street from there since 1986- year I graduated from MU.

Ehh, This is Dixon's 7th season at TCU.  They have won a single NCAA game and have never had a winning record in conference.  They are having a great season but its not like he set the world on fire once he left.

There’s a ton of revisionist history among Pitt fans who think Dixon was forced out.  Bottom line, Jamie was not a fan of moving to the ACC and was never able to adjust his recruiting accordingly.  He was ready to move on and when a new AD came to Pitt, he had his reason to leave.

Pitt's problem wasn't necessarily that Dixon left, it was they replaced him with Kevin Stallings, which everyone but the Pitt AD thought would be a disaster.

Hiring Capel afterwards wasn't great, but it was at least defensible.
