In my professional opinion, the Protect College Sports Act is bad, actually, and I hope it doesn't pass. www.extrapointsmb.com/p/the-protec...

The Protect College Sports Act is a bad bill, and I hope it doesn't become law
In my professional judgement, this legislation will not do the things its advocates say it will.

Great stuff over at @kenpom.com. Coaching résumé pages now include overall record and NCAA Tournament record. Huzzah! Subscribing to Ken's site for $25/year remains the second-best deal in all of basketball media, only surpassed by subscribing to the Eye on CBB Podcast for $0.

Random nonsense, but these are the 23 active coaches who have not had a game against a non-D1 team, ordered by total games coached.

To add to all the Dolly Parton anecdotes being shared, here’s mine: I only met her once, but it was a VERY memorable encounter. She shot me in the head with a gun, killing me instantly

Our Candid Coaches series returns for 2026, and I'm starting it off with the hottest topic in college basketball. Should 2026 seniors be grandfathered into the five-in-five rule and be made eligible next season? Suffice to say, coaches are FIRED UP over this topic. Here's how they voted.

The latest EOCBB guest for our Summer Shootaround series: @kenpom.com! I tried to get him to reveal Sparty's preseason ranking. At one point in the spring, MSU was No. 2.

First cut of preseason conference ratings. Looking forward to seeing how people categorize the Pac-12. Not on the level of other power leagues but conceivably far ahead of all non-power leagues.

Not really interested in the De'Aaron Fox hot takes. More interested in: What should be Fox's confidence be that he'll make the layup in order to go for it? Layup better than free throws, no? Especially for not a great FT shooter.

Random research: From '97-'25 there were 17 teams that shot better than 60% on 2's (no more than 2 in any season). In '26 there were 8 such teams.

If you can co-opt the names of defunct conferences that produced multiple Final Four teams, then I'm not sure why the Southland is not rebranding to the Southwest Conference.

Last night, De'Aaron Fox said that as good of a player Wemby is, he's a better person. An overused cliche that has no bounds on absurdity and in this case means Wemby is the best human on the planet. Like, Rick Steves move over.

The Knicks have outscored their opponents by 212 points over that nine-game span. That's the highest such figure in NBA history over any nine-game span, regular season or postseason. The previous mark of 209 points was set by the Bucks from Nov. 28 to Dec. 16, 1973.

With no amateur making the cut, if Rory wins I believe it will just be him in Butler cabin a la Tiger with Hootie Johnson in 2002. Let him bring a guest!

This is in the right direction. You could pick anyone in the clubhouse on Sunday afternoon. Personally don't see why the caddy couldn't do it. I don't need to see Fred Ridley involved. Like why isn't the caddy in Butler Cabin anyway.
