Document details NCAA Rules the Power 5 Conference would like amended or changed.

Short post for tonight, but here’s something interesting from CBSSportsLine. It is a document detailing NCAA rules the Power 5 conferences would like to see changed or amended.   When I read this, I thought these actually seem like reasonable requests. I would recommend taking a look at the proposals. It’s a good read. I don’t …

NIT run for Clemson and Florida State could lead to bigger things in the future.

Count me in the camp that says making NCAA tournament is better than anything that can in the NIT tournament. You can also count me in the camp that say the NIT is still a very meaningful tournament and can lead to bigger things in the future. In 2006 the NIT had their selection process …

How surprised should we be with a Final 4 of Florida, Connecticut, Wisconsin, and Kentucky?

I wish I could say I knew this would be the Final 4, but if you looked at any of my brackets you’d know only Florida was a team that I had penciled in the Final 4. In my office pool nobody got more than 2 teams in the Final 4, Florida and the couple …

Common Theme exists why ACC will miss Final 4 in 2014.

A largely miserable NCAA tournament for the ACC came to an end Friday evening when Michigan St. defeated Virginia in the Sweet 16. I hesitate to lump Virginia with the rest of the ACC’s first weekend failures. The Cavaliers in my mind are a top 5 team, that ran into a Spartans team that is …

College Wrestler wins, AD gets $18,000 Bonus

The debate whether to pay players is one of the most hotly debated topics out there. If you’re on the side of not paying players, what happened at Ohio State is pretty tough to defend. An Ohio St. wrestler won an NCAA Title, and the AD of Ohio State got an $18,000 bonus. What? You …

NCAA Tournament reveals truths we knew about ACC Basketball.

Twitter is a great thing, because you can get a feel for how fans feels about things. Surprisingly a sizeable number think that the results of the NCAA don’t reveal much if anything about the conferences the teams come from. The sample size is too small they say… This makes no sense to me. The …

Virginia and UNC are all that stands between the ACC and an embarrassing NCAA Tournament.

The ACC entered the NCAA tournament with 6 teams, 3 top 3 seeds, and 4 teams ranked in the top 25. Before the first weekend of the NCAAs is over, the ACC is already down to two teams Virginia and North Carolina who play Sunday. Pittsburgh and NC State can be forgiven somewhat. The Panthers …

Number 1 seed Virginia has plenty of bulletin board material.

For team ranked #3, winners of the ACC regular season and ACC tournament, Virginia is one disrespected team. I mean really disrespected. Tony Bennett should have no issues motivating his team, because the Hoos are a heavy underdog in their own region. The experts from CBSSportsline? Not a single one picked Virginia to make the …
