The MAC tourney commences on Thursday from Rocket Arena in Cleveland. Fun facts: - Neat! An arena that honors our space program. - It could also honor Akron. The Zips have the 13th fastest tempo in the land. They were 352nd four years ago.

Gonzaga’s coaching staff was brilliant tonight. Playing Huff and Ike together, which they’ve rarely done all year, took Marauskas out of the game and forced SMC to be worse offensively. The zone-to-man scheme was really well done. Letting KB handle the ball more than Ryan down the stretch.

The WAC starts on Tuesday in St. George, Utah (then moves to Vegas, but the result is the worst seed plays the only home game of this event). Nobody had Utah Valley winning the league by 2 games in the preseason, but alas. Preseason choice GCU is still the favorite, but just a modest one.

Nebraska is going to get crushed between Tariffs and Medicaid cuts. They have to balance their state budget and it looks like at least a 200m shortfall this year. BEFORE tariff impacts. And Nebraska Republicans here ! Curious what you think www.1011now.com/2025/03/05/t...

Duke closes the season with a 121 offensive rating against UNC, finishing the season with the best conference offensive rating of the modern era by a significant margin... and completely annihilating the previous best for a power conference.

It's officially time to be concerned about Wisconsin. Badgers lost at home to Penn State by 11, their third loss in the last five games. The D was MIA: Nittany Lions shot 56 percent (58 from three) and were plus-12 in the paint. Third straight game w/o Max Klesmit.

Drake beats Belmont to advance to Sunday's MVC title game on CBS. The Bulldogs are 29-3. I think Ben McCollum's team should be in the Dance no matter what, but they can make it official with one more victory.

Final: Houston 65, Baylor 61 Houston has had several of these trademark second half runs on the road to take control of games. They were down 7 early in the 2nd but outscored Baylor 33-21 after that. This team is absolutely a national title contender. Ranked 2nd right now at EvanMiya.com.

Feature: I went to Michigan and spent three days with Tom Izzo and Dusty May to see up close how two men separated by 22 years, more than 580 wins and the walls of a rivalry are running two booming programs at drastically different points of their careers. (Izzo gave enough quotes to fill a book.)

For what seems like the 10th straight year, I am absolutely convinced that no matter what I choose to do with Illinois in my bracket, the opposite will happen. Illini roar back late, beat Purdue 88-80 and head into the Big Ten tournament a cruising altitude.

I've been thinking a lot about that bumper sticker which says "everything looks like a conspiracy theory when you don't understand how anything works" and folks it's pretty obvious to me that the people in power right now have absolutely no desire to understand how anything works.

This is a bigger issue than people realize. Not just jobs lost. But their families losing benefits. Landlords losing tenants. Cities and towns losing revenue. This is how recessions start Ready Fire Aim is no way to govern.
