I listened to this album today. Brought back some vibes but this version of Julianne is why shelving was the right call music.youtube.com/watch?v=nt2V...

Throw up in my mouth a little time every time announcers say they’re trying to get back to power running identity

I'm just a humble fan but I think if you have 50 new players and want the fanbase to have any sort of investment in the season, giving them a 2-deep before the first game would be helpful

The "foul up 3" strategy at the end of close games is growing in popularity and controversy. With insight from coaches, executives, and lots of film study, I dove deep to answer two key questions: Is this tactic good for the sport? And does it even work?
espn.com
Is 'foul up 3' a game-winning strategy or clutch-time saboteur?
ESPN analyst Zach Kram studied years of NBA film and spoke with dozens around the league to determine whether it works and its impact on basketball.

I’m more emotionally motivated to keep out high major teams that have had objectively bad seasons than I am to include any more mids.

There's talk about how the NET incentivizes running up the score and so there's more of that these days, but great teams just run up the score naturally, whether there's incentive or not.

Georgia Southern cares not for the Sun Belt gauntlet, winning its fifth game in five days by knocking out second-seeded Marshall behind 31 from Spudd Webb. Go after Troy in its SIXTH game in as many days for the title tomorrow night.

Major mea culpa on being Mad About Arch Madness. In their 25 games at full-ish strength this year, Northern Iowa's graded out at about 55th at Torvik. That's a really dangerous 12/13 seed to draw. My read is they'd match up really well with Vanderbilt.

My guess is the 12-4 SEC record carried the day. Interesting to compare them to Mississippi that year, which was out with better profile (by committee stds) but 7-9 in conference.

Wins Above Bubble will be one of the two/three most important metrics discussed in the NCAA Tournament selection committee room this year and in seasons to come. I hopped on CBS Sports HQ for a 13-minute primer on why WAB is important and what it measures. Keep this handy over the next three weeks.
