Tennessee and Purdue both go down while Texas A&M is currently losing to Georgia.

If we beat Creighton on Wednesday with Alabama and Auburn killing each other on Saturday St John’s can be a top 5 team by Sunday.

Man, it's crazy that KY keeps beating top 5 teams while having no point guards, lamont re-aggravated his injury

Raleigh by way of Crooklyn
It's not a must that the guy has to come from inside the program...in 2025 that's a hinderance tbh.

Long shots, but if I'm UNC I'm looking at Oats, Dusty May, guys like that. But I think what happened to UK last year has admins hesitant to fire someone and assume they can grab whoever they please, but it's not really like that anymore.

If we don't step up with the money like the SEC schools have, Nate Oats is gonna laugh at us. The homie Theo Pinson said it best on his podcast. Brand ain't really doing nothing with these recruits. It was kinda short-sighted to not have the funds ready when you peeped what this new landscape was going to be like. It's like the powers that be was just like "we got UNC across our chest, we got Jordan" and figured that would get recruits in. Now we paying for that oversight.

I agree...big brands without the NIL backing it and/or a coach that's proven to get guys to the league is meaningless (UCLA, IU). IU went out and bought a bunch of players and they're going to miss the tournament, need the coach too.
