NCAA Tournament 2026

Seed: Hayseed
Region: State of Depression and Lost HopeTired of hearing about Wisconin all the time and their successes in the Dance. Time for Shaka to build his program to emulate the Rodent Resume

All their success in the dance = no sweet 16s in nine years and losing as the better seed in 4 of their last 5 appearances.

Why??? Just an idiot?  Pound of weed, cash. Guess his NIL wasn't doing it for him. He is/was a pretty good player.

Considering Oates did not sit a guy who allegedly brought a gun to a scene that was used to kill someone, I have a strange feeling Holloway will be playing in a few days.

Holloway not playing would be more surprising than if MU made the Tourney. I predict Bama, Holloway and his agent will crucify the police for this.

OK You are right. They just seem to make the Dance every year while this year we are at low major status.

In addition to being joyless, willie is unoriginal - he keeps making essentially the same comment over and over and over and over and over and over and over again.

I will be forever grateful that our alma mater denied him entry.

Yes.  They fked that up.

In what way? It seems like SJ gets a break being assigned to the closest regional with the only possibility of facing UConn coming in the Elite 8 round.

Guys, St. John's beat nobody in non-conference play and the BE sucked.

SJU was a 5 seed on Bracket Matrix, so they were seeded exactly where they were expected to be.

Exactly. Anyone who knows how the selection process works and what things the selection committee values expected SJU to get a five seed and that is what they deserved.

One simple measure is that they had only five quad one wins, and every team above them and many teams below them had more than that.

I'm not particularly hyped for this tournament without Marquette (or UW-Green Bay) in it. That said, as an alum of a mid-major I typically root for a few of them to surprise.

I was stunned a couple years ago watching James Madison destroy the Badgers. I think Badgers are much better this year and likely can hold off High Point. That said, High Point had 30 wins this year. Even though their schedule is soft, that's a lot of wins and I think they will challenge the Badgers most of the game.

Be surprised.  Only one that got crucified was Holloway. Having over a pound of weed and other evidence not known, is not for personal use.

Former top 15 recruit and very good player, throws it away.
