@CurseOfBambino @FanDuel This is Dan Monson erasure. He's the coach who took Gonzaga to its first Elite 8, back when they were a real Cinderella before Few turned the Zags into a powerhouse.

@FanDuel Before Mark Few, the only reason anyone had heard of Gonzaga at all is because of John Stockton. Spokane is nice depending on your lifestyle, but it’s not a desirable location for young athletes with NIL money to burn.

Mark Few has ZERO National Championships in 27 seasons at Gonzaga 😳 Is it time to move on? 🤔

We need to start having a conversation about how much of a fraudulent NCAA Tournament team Saint Mary's is. One Sweet 16 in 14 tournament appearances since 1989.

@SlimSparty @IainMacBets I think it depends how much you want to factor in injuries. The current Gonzaga team is probably a 7-10 seed. But the team with Braden Huff that won all those nonconference games is good enough to be a 3-seed for sure. It's possible he'll be able to play soon, so 🤷🏽‍♂️

@IainMacBets And also they continue to gift Gonzaga a top seed playin in this shit conference.. It’s a joke! If Gonzaga was named Miami (Ohio) this Gonzaga team would be 7-10 seed

Mike Bethea confirms 2x @wiaawa 3A boys hoops champion Rainier Beach will NOT be headed out to postseason "The Throne" this week. Offer was rescinded when stars Tyran Stokes and JJ Crawford were out (nagging inj.). Team was supposed to leave for New Jersey today. @varsitywanews

@MgbGomez @RepSyrup @SheaSerrano The Trump administration has made no effort to fix the broken system and made clear through its rhetoric they have no interest in treating undocumented immigrants fairly. Yes most of the laws have been broken before, but this administration does it regularly and with no remorse.

@LukeTScribe @RepSyrup @SheaSerrano Again, I want a country that has solid immigration laws. I want ICE to safely deal with these situations and treating them fairly. I also believe we have a broken system overall. I never said it was perfect. I just dont place blame solely on trump and ICE.

lol we can disagree about movies or music or sports or whatever we can’t disagree about whether or not black lives matter or if a woman should have the right to choose what to do with her body or if immigrants should be treated like humans this shit really ain’t that hard
Scott Kid@under2point5g

@SheaSerrano Its a response to your last decade of tweets! You turn anyone who disagrees with you politically into an enemy. I was a huge fan when you and Concepcion were running shit. Now you spend your days widening our divides instead of bridging them!

@MgbGomez @RepSyrup @SheaSerrano Deporting people not afforded due process to countries where they have never been (sometimes to prisons) is obviously new, inhumane and illegal. Are you OK with that or do you just not believe the stories that say it is happening?

@RepSyrup @LukeTScribe @SheaSerrano It has always been a thing. Nothing that is happening today is new. Yall just now seeing it more cuz everyone got cameras. Look I have my issues with Trump and his administration but Yall are are obsessed with bringing him down when this has always been an issue.

@MgbGomez @SheaSerrano Supporting immigration laws is very different from supporting this administration's immigration policy, which has actually led to many laws being repeatedly broken.

@SheaSerrano You can believe Black lives matter without supporting every movement tied to it. You can believe abortion is murder and still care about women. You can support immigration laws and still want immigrants treated with respect. Posts like these is what creates the division

@tsnmike The other thing is for that to be true, you'd need a coach to look at his league and say, "Well, I'm confident we're good enough to run the table but I don't think we can win 3-4 games at the conference tournament so I'm going to forgo the obvious benefits of a tough noncon." 🤔

@sullymygoodname An example that comes to mind is 2011-12 Murray St. The Racers ultimately won the OVC tournament but absolutely would have been an at-large lock thanks to a tough noncon schedule even if they had lost, despite a bad regular season loss to Tennessee State (KP #168).

@sullymygoodname You're making it sound like it would be easier to create a terrible schedule and win every game as opposed to creating a better schedule and winning almost but not quite every game. But the latter scenario is the better choice and probably happens more often. That hasn't changed.

Very interested in the precedent Miami has set going forward - what if mid majors dont actually have to schedule good teams? What if you just schedule a bunch of trash and win your games? This year has told us you can get the court of public opinion on your side.
JBR@JBRBracketology

Flip side, why I left Miami OH out: -Miami OH had 0 wins vs field -Miami OH had 0 Q1 wins (first time ever) -Miami OH had more Q4 losses than Q1 wins (first time ever) -Miami OH #340 SOS (worst ever for at-large team) -Miami OH #363 NCSOS (worst ever for at-large team) -Miami OH failed to make semifinals in MAC Tournament (MAC #16 per Torvik, #17 per KP) -2 of Miami OH's 3 Q2 wins are within eight spots of being Q3 -Miami OH only played one game vs NET Top 125 all season, and the game was at home

@ManyHatsMilles There was a lot more I heard off the record before that happened when I approached the SunKings about doing a fun, feel good story on Jenkins being in Yakima. So disappointing.

Congratulations to the new locks. We can't exactly say you earned it. But by being less bad than the others, you are in the clear. cbssports.com/college-basket…
