Rutgers is ranked higher on KenPom than 12 teams that got at large bids which tells you all you need to know about how much Rutgers got screwed!.

Credible sources tell us that Tobin Anderson is a serious candidate to be next Iona University Gaels basketball coach!!!

Thoughts on Tobin Anderson to Iona!.- Easy to root for Tobin - humble & genuine.- Started at bottom in D3 - worked his way up on merit .- Winner - coached 22 years/won 67%.- Exciting/fast/attack BBall - players love it.- Strong Xs & Os Coach - great plan vs Purdue.- Bonds w/ team

KenPom says the Big East is the 2nd Best Conference but the Selection Committee says that only 3 Big East Teams get into NCAA Tournament. That makes ZERO sense!.

Most people are fine but saw a few jerks taking shots at Ewing or Anderson. Regardless of what you think of their coaching, Pat Ewing & Mike Anderson are both class acts who represented universities with professionalism and ran clean programs. Let's wish them well in future.

Our beloved Iona Gaels are down to 1 active player - Osborn Shema. 1) Thanks Os, please stay!.2) Troubled to see Pitino's fingerprints on this - but not surprised he has no loyalty to only college that gave him a chance. 3) Wish departing Iona guys gave Coach Anderson a chance.

I've been pissed for 2 days that Big East got screwed by Selection Committee & then I turned on this Virginia vs Colorado St game, and now it's very clear that Seton Hall, St. John's & Providence are all much better than Virginia - plus Oklahoma, Indiana St & Pitt are better too!.

I have nothing against Arkansas but the good news about them losing is we don’t have to see Musselman take his shirt off again - UConn did save us from that!

Iona has been a top Mid Major program for decades - been a fan since Jimmy V beat Louisville at MSG in 1980 - Iona went 29-5 that year - Gaels went to Big Dance 16 times since then!.We appreciate Rick Pitino's 3 great years!.But Iona won before Rick P & will win in future!

Please remove the following from your CBB Analysis:."Matt Painter is a great coach".He is not. 2 years in a row, he proved incapable of making adjustments to beat a team they were favored to beat by over double digits.

Just looked at a proposed NIT Bracket - that tournament is now almost all comprised of mediocre power conference teams that didn't make NCAAT and the Mid Majors have mostly been thrown out - why would anyone watch - sometimes I loathe the decision-makers in CBB.

Lots of posts on how Purdue's freshmen guards can't handle pressure vs Rutgers right now & that's not untrue but I must remind everyone that Rutgers has 3rd best D in nation (KenPom) and every team they play has trouble with Rutgers pressure D. Also, not really a FR in Game 33!.

Exciting - I'm 60 & went to Iona Prep, right down North Ave from Iona College in New Rochelle. We loved Jimmy V. We saw him in bars & restaurants. He put Iona Hoops on map & built a Top 25 team. He sparked my interest in CBB & will always be part of College Hoops Chat radio show!.

Fun night @ Fordham - Rams played strong D & made big shots & my Bonnies lost 78-63 - arena was on fire as Rams now have real home court advantage. Then Dinner at Enzo's on Arthur Ave to celebrate my B'Day & we met Coach Urgo - great guy w/ big energy which is why Rams are 21-5!

I'm pleased NCAA is getting tougher on transferring 2nd time - see flyer. I agreed w/ 1 time free transfer change, but don't support unlimited transfers like free agency. When 1 free transfer rule started, we were told waivers would be harder to get 2nd time - finally happening.
