Re: Sean Miller

In the past eight years, Sean Miller has been to the Sweet Sixteen SIX times.

6/8. That's on pace to be some Izzo level shit right there.

Just needs the Final Four/Natty. It's coming.

Is anyone else seriously involved besides Arizona and Kansas?

I can't imagine that Kansas helped their position by shitting themselves in the first weekend of the tourney again.

Oh, I get that you don't give two shits about the specifics of his situation. It's all about how you see it from your narrow, limited perspective. I get that, believe me.

You realize dude's from Chester, PA right? Every year he stays in college is another year his family has to do without.

Re: Wisconsin and the West

We struggle against zones with size/length. UCLA actually has a better average height and effective height than Arizona. Baylor has neither. They are very, very mediocre in both, actually. Scott Drew also shouldn't strike any fear into anyone for obvious reasons. There is nothing until the Elite 8 t...

Re: Official Bracketology Thread

Well I guess 2009 when the Big East had three it proves it has happened. But that year there weren't really any other teams that had comparable résumés to those three teams (Pitt, UConn, Louisville). This season, there are several other teams from other conferences that are worthy.

Re: Official Bracketology Thread

So, let me get this straight: The WCC regular season and tourney champs get to stay in the West, but the Pac-12 regular season and tourney champs get shipped out? When the Pac-12 regular season and tourney champs beat the WCC regular season and tourney champs head to head? LMFAO. That's not happening.

Re: POY, COY, etc.

Coaches don't like other coaches who beat them, whether it be on the recruiting trail or on the court. It's no shock that Miller didn't win COY...as I can think of maybe 1 or 2 coaches who would even vote for him. I know Romar and Miller like each other, and I get the feeling that there is a mutual...

And not to say there wasn't anyone else deserving other than TJ. Delon Wright is fantastic and I was fully prepared for him to win POY over TJ, which would have sucked but been totally reasonable IMO. Joseph Young is a chucker who performed his worst against the best teams in the conference. How he ...

Re: POY, COY, etc.

I'm sure Sean Miller doesn't give a shit about COY, so I don't really either. But denying TJ POY keeps him out of the Ring of Honor, and that pisses me off.

Only hope for him now is the Cousy (which I think would make him eligible for jersey retirement), but I don't think he wins it unfortunately.
