My CBB Court Report notebook returns tomorrow. As always, it will feature the @ me mailbag section. I'm thinking of making it almost exclusively Bluesky Qs this season.

With the understanding that coaches control fewer noncon games than ever, how can we incentivize high-major to schedule better home games? For every Self, Few, and Izzo, there's a Beard, Terry, and Hurley who make their fans watch them load up on the buy games.

What is a bigger talent gap? An SEC. Basketball team versus an NAIA opponent or an SEC football team versus an FCS opponent.

Which players have most lived up to/exceeded their NIL value vs which have fallen very short thus far this year? As a K-State fan, paying Coleman Hawkins 2mil+ for 8.5/7/4 seems like highway robbery. Do you anticipate NIL will continue to go up like professional contracts seem to do? Love the Pod!

Does Purdue have the potential to make a deep tourney run with their recent switch to small ball? Or will sacrificing rebounds be too costly later on in the tournament?

What team in the SEC’s mammoth middle class are we talking about as a 4-5 seed on Selection Sunday?

jmorris93.bsky.social•87 days ago

Early in the season, but who would be your SEC transfer of the year?

What's Jase Richardson's ceiling? Could he be better than his dad?

Out of all the D1 men’s coaches, if you had a son/daughter play for them, who are the top 3-5 you’d encourage them to play for (you can’t choose based on locale like Hawaii ;) )

If the top 10 coaches in CBB were musicians, who would they each be and why?

Hey Matt, long time listener first time caller. Is there any legitimate reason to believe Kyle Neptune can turn around his tenure at Villanova? I’ll hang up and listen GO BIR…excuse me, go Cats.

Do you think the issues with the Big East this year may be systemic and leading to a long term problem? I remember when the Catholic 7 broke off and formed the new Big East I was concerned we'd turn into the A10. Dwarfed by the budget of the football schools and a yearly 1/2 bid league.

hayesbrian.bsky.social•87 days ago

What’s wrong with the Big East this season? GP and you discussed the current results on the pod, but how do you think the conference got here?

wu22.bsky.social•87 days ago

What’s stopping these games from being spread over two days instead of all being on the same day?!

We have Duke-Auburn, UNC-Bama, Marquette-Iowa State, UConn-Baylor, Kansas-Creighton

One AP voter ranked UConn 10th (after going 0-3 in Maui) in Monday's poll. Wouldn't it make sense for broadcast networks to use Kenpom/Barttorvik rankings instead of AP/coaches polls? Rankings are refreshed within minutes and are based on data instead of the opinion of a sportswriter. No offense.

Marquette is the #5 team in the country and including tomorrow (@#6 Iowa St), will have played its last 4 games on espn+, FS2 twice and FloHoops. They had a game on peacock earlier this season. Am I seriously supposed to pay for all these streaming services for one-off games? Get off my lawn!

camanderson22.bsky.social•87 days ago

What is the most off-the-wall prediction a high major head coach has given you while talking informally about the end result of conference realignment?

emperorkristopher.bsky.social•87 days ago

Right now, I have the four box going with YouTube TV and I didn’t even realize Michigan was playing Wisconsin on Peacock. I know money is the incentive, but are these conferences going to regret these streaming deals when less people can actually watch the games?

emperorkristopher.bsky.social•87 days ago

Two questions. Since you mentioned Maui costs programs money, how do they bring in more sponsors to offset that cost and possibly pay some of the teams or play players? if the models changing then how do they not go the way of the dodo? Also, how good is Florida? Ranked sixth in the net.

meggiejoy.bsky.social•87 days ago

What are the chances that Hurley went so crazy during the tournament in hopes the discussion would be more about his antics and less about his guys? If he didn’t expect to do well could he be trying to take the heat off?

What's your favorite Dinosaur?

kbukie.bsky.social•87 days ago

Is any B1G team poised to separate from the pack and emerge as a Final Four contender this year? Seems there's like 12 similar teams without a standout.

kevbo9.bsky.social•87 days ago

Why does Bill Self hate 3 pointers? Shooting less than 32% of your shots from deep is just so silly in the modern game of basketball. And he brought in guys like Griffen and Mayo specifically to fix the 3P problem from last year…and then they still don’t shoot them. Make it make sense!

largehubris.bsky.social•87 days ago

i doubt they double them up like last year, but what are the odds the mountain west earns more bids than the big east in the ncaa tournament again? feels like the fate of the big east as a whole save marquette depends on the big east-big 12 battle this week.

rsteinberg.bsky.social•87 days ago

With the Southwick Jug now going to the winner of the most storied rivalry in college football (UConn vs. UMass), what's your idea for a trophy that could go to a great college basketball non-conference rivalry?
