No mid-majors left in the NCAA Tournament? No problem. We have an NIT with seven of the eight remaining teams representing us. @IsaacBourne_ previews the quarterfinals. midmajormadness.com/nit-tournament…
Tulsa and WSU playing each other for the 4th time this year is crazy

Whole lotta hardware in this year's field. #NIT2026 🏀
Sources: Alabama guard Aden Holloway will be AVAILABLE for their first round game against Hofstra. Oates remarked “Aden is a good kid. The whole situation is a big misunderstanding.” Gotta be honest with you America, that’s a load of fucking bullshit.
Source: Alabama guard Aden Holloway was arrested this morning on a first degree charge of Marijuana possession. I understand March can be stressful, but smoking marijuana is NOT cool. I prefer sparkling water. He let down his teammates and coach. Very disappointing.

Spent two weeks having recruiting conversations across the American with coaches, agents, donors, parents. Some of what I heard was tough to sit with. Not a lot of people are reporting on what these conversations actually look like. I dedicated today's newsletter to this.
@MattBrownEP Let’s do a FOIA and shine a light on how difficult it is for mid majors to get scheduled with P4 programs. The Miami Ohio shined some light. A lot of our programs just cannot get descent schedules then get slammed come tourney time for not playing a tougher schedule
This league is far too deep and good to be a one-bid league. - Three Top 50 Teams - Six Top 75 Teams - Near nine Top 100 Teams - Six 20+ win Teams What the NET/Quad system can blind us from is scary to think about.
