March 20, 2002: Elite Eight🏀 Kent State beats Pitt 78-73 in Sweet 16 matchup Future NFL TE Antonio Gates w/ 22 pts/9 rebs as the Golden Flashes win their 20th game in a row #MarchMadness⚡️ #DickyV

I rate Jerrod Calhoun as one of the top 5 Offensive Minds in College Basketball. Here's some stuff they ran tonight. Starting with the opening set. Point Over - Rifle Action- Empty Veer - 45 Cut timed with Baseline Cut to distort the tag. Calhoun's O distorts tag all the time

Utah State’s team seems to be well-coached.

@TonyDasco I hope Akron loses by 100

Team I’d like to see go on a run: Georgia Team that’s fraudulent: Kansas Team to watch: St John’s First top seed to lose: Michigan Most dangerous team: Purdue Cinderella: Akron Conference I’d like to see win the tournament: SEC #MarchMadness

@DaneRichardso16 Great job! I listened from Vegas throughout the season

A 24 win season for Kent State ends in the first round of the NIT to Illinois State🏀 Another great season for the Flashes, in what was a fun, talented group that loved to hoop Thank you to all the fans who follow and listened all season long! Go Flashes⚡️

@WCCSG_ @CoachDanMullen Authentic.

Describe Dan Mullen’s coach style with just one word. 🏈 🎰

@rawoods24 @SSN_KentState Let’s get you involved in NIL to help the program.

@SSN_KentState Not a good showing though and they desperately need shooting! When watching teams they have trouble with, they have shooters all over the place!

Season officially comes to an end. Love this team man. Tremendous group. So many great moments this year.

@SSN_KentState Does anyone do more with less than Coach Senderoff? Always has Kent State with 20+ wins and in the semis or finals. Always in the post-season while playing with less resources. For those commenting negatively we’re looking forward to your NIL contribution. Everything helps.

@Biggz_91 Completely uninformed statement following the incredible turnout at the multiple conference tournaments this past week + the huge crowds that come to Golden Knights, Aces, Aviators. Vegas crushed Super Bowl 2 years ago. Has Super Bowl/Final Four/A’s all coming in 28.

Because Vegas ain’t as lit as ppl tryna make it seem anymore

From NBA Today earlier Wednesday: What you need to know about the new CBA and what comes next

Being a mid major HC who leads his team to March Madness is the ultimate dream

First time Assistant Coaches: FIND AS MANY WAYS AS POSSIBLE TO MAKE YOUR HEAD COACHES JOB EASIER. BE LOYAL AND GRIND.

More praise for new Tarleton State head coach Eric Haut! 🗣️

@bruce_weingart @KentTaylorTV @MiamiOH_BBall @MiamiOH_DSayler @TheHoopHerald The GA’s during that people are equally as impressive.

How would you like this coaching staff? From the left to right: Sean Miller, Charlie Coles, Herb Sendek, Thad Matta. Not a bad staff in 1995 at Miami University. @MiamiOH_BBall @MiamiOH_DSayler @TheHoopHerald

Throwback to when the 🐐 led us to the Eilte Eight in March 2002! 👏 “Words really can’t describe that feeling. It felt like we won the National Championship.” -@AntonioGates85 #GoFlashes⚡️

@Joshua_Newman You have no idea that Vegas is at the top in attendance in NHL, WNBA, AAA, and NFL?

We’ve all been to Vegas, right? I’m not the sharpest marble in the box, but I don’t understand how that city can support all four major sports.

Wyoming coach Sundance Wicks on why his teams will never opt out of a postseason opportunity: “We will always accept an invitation to the National Invitation Tournament. If we don't ever get an NCAA automatic qualifier bid or an at large bid in March Madness, we'll always accept this, because it is our civic duty as basketball coaches of basketball players to normalize playing basketball as long as you can, because that's what we get paid to do nowadays. This is our job. “My wife can't just wake up someday and be like, ‘You know what? I'm gonna opt out of teaching today.’ This is what we need to normalize, and this (NIT) field is outstanding. It is like Mid-Major Madness, and I love it. Kudos to Auburn for accepting the bid. That's outstanding.”

Yearly hotel reminder for those that visit Las Vegas for NCAA Tournament: Best overall (unlimited budget): @WynnLasVegas Best bang for your buck: @southpointlv Best sportsbook: @CircaLasVegas Staying in Henderson: @GVRcasino Staying in Summerlin: @redrockcasino You're welcome.

@AdamZagoria Illinois State Head Coach Ryan Pedon (former Butler Asst)

One name to keep in mind is former Butler standout and current Atlanta Hawks assistant Ronald Nored.

@_AdamOwens Team Suits for sure

Of the 31 automatic bids, 28 were staffs that wore quarter zips. 3 suits. Always has been and always will be quarter zips > suits on the sideline!
