FCN NCAA Tournament Bracket Show x.com/i/broadcasts/1…

Interesting STAT as 3 out of our (5) Coaches who came on our NCAA Tournament Bracket Show earlier this week.... WON in the NCAA Tournament. Coincidence??? Good Luck to @coachclayman @CoachSteeleMU and @pmjr10 in becoming Cinderella! @FullCourtNetwork" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">youtube.com/@FullCourtNetw…

@BBall_Logician That would be a solid conference and a lot of great match ups with fun

Give me a basketball conference of: High Point Charleston Wilmington Richmond James Madison Liberty Old Dominion Furman Charlotte Winthrop Davidson East Tennessee State

@coachsvenson He was not but he is doing a solid job in it

@FullCourtNet He was a beast & Kentucky. Phenomenal scorer. I just don’t remember him being a very vocal player with the media during his career.

Bruce Pearl is the type of guy who changes his tournament bracket all the time during the tournament and claims a near perfect bracket each year

@CoachDoty Coach I mean look at the Southland conference and the conference keeps improving the last few years. Does tournament expansion favor mid majors? Absolutely not

The driver of interest in March Madness are the mid-major programs like High Point, Miami (OH), St. Louis, Prairie View A&M, VCU, McNeese, Siena, South Florida, and others. These teams make the tournament special.. they maximize their talent, they play together, have elite chemistry, and they show that toughness and execution can level the playing field against programs with 5–15x the resources, recruiting budgets, and NIL/revenue share money. The mid-majors, their stories and their upsets drive viewership and revenue. They are the reason for the early round interest in the tournament. Why is High Point Coach Flynn Clayman and many others frustrated? It is because the system and selection process treats elite mid-majors like second-class citizens. It should be noted that no one wants to flood the field with potential Cinderellas and dilute the tournament. However, there’s a clear case for a handful more deserving mid-majors earning at-large spots each year. As it stands today, the metrics and criteria create almost no realistic path for 99% of non-power programs unless they win their conference tournament outright. There are mid-major leagues that are strong enough on a given year that their second-best team (or their best team who gets upset in their conference tournament) would win games if they were in the field. How do we get them in the NCAA tournament in the future?

@CoachDoty Amen

@jmcconnell70 very solid overview and onward and upward!

The P4 presidents are too myopic to realize it, but Miami, High Point, VCU and SLU beating their teams is what makes March Madness the greatest sporting event in the world … and in turn, puts $ in their pockets. Nobody wants to watch a power conference circle jerk.

First full day of the NCAA Tournament was AMAZING and will the second day be even better? Any upsets? Any favorite games you are looking forward too? March is Madness!! Follow us @FullCourtNet for all your #NCAABasketball Tournament Coverage.

Never thought it would be this close…yikes

@coachsvenson Mashburn was a ball player

@FullCourtNet Such a dbag. Mashburn way better than I would have thought. Pearl way worse.

@MikeHughesSDMS Boom and next level for sure

@FullCourtNet These students are staying and another plane is heading out for Saturday!

High Point is next level

Repeat after us V-C-U The Martelli Magic

@ED23HOOPS @nickaquino0629 He would bring energy back to the carrier dome and get NIL going too Would be a great hire

Hire that man so we can get this thing rolling asap!

This is truth right here and preach our brother @coachclayman . Keep winning and spreading the gospel. Mid-Majors vs. Everyone

Chase Johnston is Jack Gohlke

@jgohlke34 @AntiSECIsTheWay Chase Johnston is Jack Gohlke

First two of the YEAR?!?!?

@BWMcGair03 @Leb_Zeppelins Happy you liked our question !!!!

Bryan Hodgson after South Florida’s loss to Louisville in the NCAA Tournament: “USF is a phenomenal place. Very appreciative to the administration for believing me. Great leadership. South Florida has great days ahead.”

One pick correct and one more to go!

High Point Chase Johnston makes his first 2 point basket all season
