It’s funny because the year you picked a Rick barnes Tennessee team to get to the final four, Matt painter’s Purdue team beat them in the sweet 16 lol

Hell, you can even add Jim Boeheim to the list as well. Midpack coach, if he didn’t land Melo he’d be ringless and coaching an average P5 school.
Most disappointing coaches that have won less with more than anyone else:
1. Rick Barnes
2. Leonard Hamilton
3. Jim Boeheim

The Big Ten can be the toughest conference top to bottom and not fair well in the tournament.
Conference play is one thing. The tournament can be pretty random.

On my book, you can bet on Oklahoma, SMU, and Washington to make the Final Four...

Texas will lose to Virginia Tech and I really think the winner of Wyoming/Indiana will beat St. Mary’s.

Is it random when the Big10 gets whacked every year almost across the board?

Conference ain’t all that when multiple favorites lose to the likes of Oral Roberts, Loyola Chicago, Middle Tennessee State etc and haven’t won a chip in 22 years

This. People cry matchups every year but the best should beat whoever is in front of them. I’ve fallen into the B10 hype trap for so many years. When we had Wisconsin and Michigan State both in the final 4 and still didn’t win a title I gave up

Gotta figure this helps our chances with GG Jackson.

Yes.
Every conference suffers upsets, come on.
By my count, In that 22 years 6 big ten teams have appeared in the championship game a combined 7 times.
3 Big 12 schools 5 times.
2 SEC schools 4 times.
3 ACC schools teams not named Duke or North Carolina 3 times.
Pretty good numbers for the Big Ten short of winning the whole thing.

Deep dive...An article on The Athletic today said 1996-97 Kansas is the best team that did not make the Final Four. Thoughts?

Cried my eyes out that night when Bibby, Simon and Dickerson gave JV and Haase the bidness.

Let’s go SWAC!!! Texas Southern knocked off Texas A&M-CC to earn a regular spot in the tourney against Kansas. On another note, Alcorn State is hanging with Texas A&M in a NIT matchup. Pull off the upset!
