@JoshHenschke I guess not overly surprised. I know Dusty has mentioned wanting guys that will commit to the team and be willing to sacrifice for the collective. Yax was the poster child for willing to take on less scoring responsibility. Juke can get his points elsewhere. Not a fit at UM.

Michigan has been informed they’re out of the running, increases my confidence of my prediction to Tennessee: on3.com/boards/threads…

NEW: On3's @PeteNakos has logged an expert prediction for Tennessee to land Wake Forest transfer guard Juke Harris🍊 Harris is the No. 1 player in the On3 transfer portal rankings. on3.com/news/predictin…

@BarstoolUofM Duke is smart and playing at tournament venues. MSG is East Regional host and obviously Detroit is Final Four. Probably prefer not to give Michigan home court advantage so not playing them in Detroit.
English
Side note, why the fuck is Duke playing Gonzaga in Detroit

Mark your calendars.
December 21st.
Duke vs Michigan.
Madison Square Garden.
Cinema.

@dpshow The right thing to do but it will never happen.

"If you win your conference... you should be in the 64-team field. I want these other schools that didn't win their conference, that they're going to be playing on Tuesday and Wednesday."

@JonRothstein Absolutely love the top teams not afraid to play these type of games. Hope more teams follow suit, though I know some are.

NEWS: UConn and Duke are finalizing an agreement to meet in a neutral site game on Thanksgiving Eve in Las Vegas, according to multiple sources.

@TotallyAllIn @CBB_Central Lol, Miami had to go undefeated to get in over Auburn. Next year Auburn gets in over any mid-major with a few losses.
English
@CBB_Central You clowns do know that Miami actually did make and Auburn didn't, right? You can't keep recycling this narrative when it never comes to fruition.
English
The goalposts will keep moving for the best mid-majors. That you can guarantee.

A 17-16 UCF making the tournament over a 25-5 Murray State who lost in the Missouri Valley semifinals is going to be so, so, so fun.
English
@tuffycentral Might want to look at some tape of him. Will be great, but as Peterson proved, not going to get you all the way by himself.
English
@TotallyAllIn @Isaac__Trotter You are joking right? The whole bubble this year was major conference teams besides San Diego State. Will be the same every year because all those shitty major conference teams get a boost for losing to better competition. Mid-majors get screwed every time due to the SOS.
English
@Isaac__Trotter Except there's zero reason to think that would happen.

The men's + women's NCAA Tournaments are expected to formally pass approval for expansion to 76 teams in May, sources told CBS Sports. The move to 76 would mean 52 teams would auto-slot into the main bracket and 12 games for 24 teams Tues/Wed for a rebuilt opening round. Story TK
English
@Isaac__Trotter Sadly, this is exactly what will happen.
English
@BriceMarich Just love the feeling of having complete faith in your coach and him knowing what he is doing.
English
#Michigan HC Dusty May says they really like their roster and where it currently stands right now.
English
@GoodmanHoops Not end of the world but I don't know of any college basketball fan that wants this. Literally no one. Obvious it is a money grab and getting more major conference teams a shot. No chance this helps mid-majors at all.
English
Was just a matter of time before the tourney expanded.
Heading to 76 next season.
Not a huge fan of it, but I also don’t think we need to act like the tourney will be ruined with expansion, either.
Pete Thamel@PeteThamel
Sources: The NCAA has initiated the final steps to expand the men’s and women’s NCAA basketball tournaments to 76 teams. The expansion is on track to be formalized in the upcoming weeks, with mid-May as the target. The 76-team tournaments begin next year. espn.com/mens-college-b…
English
@BarstoolBigCat Absolutely right, if this gets the Belmont's of college basketball in, then all for it, but instead it will be major conference teams with losing conference records, that their only positive is they lost to really good teams.
English
The only way this doesn’t suck is if they made it mandatory to include more mid majors. But we all know it’s going to be a bunch of mid big conference schools
Barstool Sports@barstoolsports
Game’s gone
English
@CJMooreHoops If history is our guide it will not help mid-majors. They just can't help pushing crappy major teams that played a tough schedule.
English
One positive from NCAA expansion to 76, as @ralphDrussoATH mentioned, hypothetical field from this last tourney would have included New Mexico, San Diego State and Tulsa. I am hopeful it gets in some of the best mid-majors who lose in their conference tourneys.
English
@CBB_Central Might as well just have a tournament where all the major conference teams are automatically in. This is the end goal it seems.
English
This is what a new “First 12” would look like, based on NCAA seed list, First Four Out, and WAB.
Mid-major AQs get pushed down, and still no room for Belmont, New Mexico, Yale, etc. And Akron, South Florida, McNeese likely would’ve missed w/o autobid:

English
The common refrain these days is that an expanded NCAA tournament would help get mid-majors in.
But @SInow built a new 76-team bracket, and the results are ugly.
The new Last Four In? Oklahoma State, Virginia Tech, Cal… and 17-16 Arizona State:

@PortalPredict @JamieShaw5 “Expert” prediction. Like we all don’t have X to follow where he is leaning.

@BrianMcAlp53745 @CaptainPriapism @RealRobReinhart Evan is factoring what they lost as well. I don't follow Tenn close enough to know what left.
English
@DapperWolverine @CaptainPriapism @RealRobReinhart But realistically it makes zero sense. I get the media hates Tennessee but that’s just egregious lol
