Those "Nets" are in also Houston, as the Final Four in early April 2023 is in Houston, at NRG Stadium

For the first time, the Final Four will have 4 "host" schools...Houston Baptist University, Rice University, Texas Southern University and University of Houston will be co-hosts.

 I have to research/verify, but I have a suspicion no "host" school has ever won an NCAA Final Four it also "hosted"...bad karma for UH, there.


Butler was the host school the year Gordan Heyward clanged the half court shot that would have beat Duke.

Maybe Kansas in 1988?  It was in Kansas City, I'm not sure if they would've been a host and not sure where to find that.  UCLA won titles in LA in 1972 and 1968, not sure who the host schools were.

Tyrese Hunter looked real nice for Texas against Gonzaga.  I'd have gone to the deep pocket NIL donors we apparently have to bring the hometown kid back home this offseason.  But stars like that don't fit our culture.

We shoulda scheduled Buzz.  His team is giving up ridiculous 3pt %s the last couple games.  45% yesterday, 52% so far today.

edit: and 44% to Abilene Christian previously.  Somehow only 10% to UL Monroe....

54 at half?  Cats that’s bad.  Someone better do a piece on Buzz’s kids

A Colorado team that has lost to Grambling and UMass already, no less (although they did beat Tennessee).

Buzz feels like the worst best coach out there.  His teams are wildly inconsistent - I have no doubt they'll beat someone like Kentucky this year, but then turn around and lose by 25 to Vandy.  They'll finish 10-8 in conference, just getting in as a bubble team.  But that's probably good enough for him to stick around for as long as he wants.

Because A&M is saving its buyout money for Jimbo.

Correct. Butler and the Horizon League were hosts.

Excellent possibles.

The 2 UCLA FF Champs in 68 and 73 were both played in the old LA Memorial Sports Arena, which was operated by USC.

In 68 ... I can tell you Guy V Lewis felt like the FF game in LA was a UCLA home game. Earlier in January UH (Elvin Hayes) and UCLA (Lew Alcindor) played the "game of the century"...a UH home game before 50,000 in the Astrodome (source of NCAA later holding final Fours in stadium venues), in which UH won and broke a 47-game winning streak of UCLA. Later, When UH met in FF semis in LA, UCLA had a payback blowout of UH 101-69. Ouch

1988 was the first year NCAA tourney teams could not host in any arena in which they played four or more in season home games.
Kemper Arena in KC where FF was held was not Phog Allen fieldhouse, KU's home court, although just 40-50 mi from Lawrence. Like you, though I could not find who was the technical host school for this FF

I don’t think a school or conference was the host, it looks to have been the city and a local organizing committee.

They are awful. 0-4 with none of their losses within single digits. Somehow they only lost to UW by 11, but lost to Georgetown by 34.

They might be the worst team in college basketball before it’s all said and done.  Their games against IUPUI are going to be must watch for sickos like me

The Queens University of Charlotte, in their first year of the transition to D1. As opposed to Queens College of NYC, the alma mater of Jerry Seinfeld, John Favreau, and Ron Jeremy.

Baylor is getting smoked by UVA.  MU needs to drop the hammer and run the table before BEast games.

Wisconsin shot 8-34 on 2FGA against Green Bay.  They couldn't hit water from a boat.

Yeah, not running that guantlet.

Hope I’m wrong but 2-3 seems more likely than 4-1.
I’d be thrilled with 4-1.

I’ll split the difference and guess 3-2.
Two wins in Florida and a win over UW, losses to Baylor and @ND.
