Apparently UT wants to swing big and go after Quinn Snyder and Sean Miller if they miss tournament or don't make Sweet 16

Hadn't hear Quinn mentioned in years and years.

Current projection:
#8 UConn v #9 Baylor

Winner gets Florida

That would suck but I'm pretty sure we get Florida and then first things first

Florida is a buzz saw right now. I think we lose by 10 plus. But agree, you look ahead and you get beat. Just have to relish every minute in the tourney. Weird things happen every year. Fluke injury, bad call, etc. not sure how much having Josh would help this team, but without him for at least 15-20 minutes and Love at 50% we just don't have the horses to go far. A team that can double Norchad is going to make it really tough to score. Nunn and Roach have been non factors with any team that plays tough D.

Don't see that happening as the NBA plays into the summer..if Terry is gone they can't wait that long for a coach.

Unbelievable that this almost same Florida team lost to Colorado in the tournament last year.

Always a nasty draw. Hopefully that isnt the case and we get a break for the first time in years. Has been like that since 21', fortunately the championship team was too good but their draw was ridiculous too.

We won't get UConn.

What time they announce it?

Starting now. Beginning with a memorial tribute to Greg Gumbel.

With St John's winning the Big East tournament tonight, most of the brackets have now moved Tech down to a 3 seed and replaced with St. Johns. Since we are likely either a 9, 10 or at best an 8, it means if we make it to the second round we would likely get:

If we're a 10:

Michigan St.
Tennessee (not likely)
St. Johns (not likely
Bama


If we're a 9 or 8

Auburn
Duke
Florida
Houston (not likely)

Of course, better focus on the first game first or none of this matters.

---

100% we're getting Florida. Let's make that be a problem. First things first.

---

I sure hope not. I really hope we get a 10 seed

---

So our message to the selection committee is "respect us a little bit, but not that much?"

---

Lighten up … just saying I would rather play a two seed in the second round than one of the one seeds. That being said, Duke would be interesting if we get past the first round.

Sometimes even I don't get my humorous attempts. Thinking a 10 seed might be better than a 9 reminded me of the golfer who's tee shot was so bad he ended up with the choice of playing the ball where it was or seeking relief. He asks his veteran caddie what shot could give him the best chance at the green. Caddie tells him, "back at the tee would be good." No easy shots or wins from where we are.

Sorry my bad and my misunderstanding. I've unfortunately had too many golf shots to count where going back to the tee box would be a huge improvement. One of the benefits of getting older is that it's hard to get in as much trouble when you can't hit the ball out of your own shadow.

No worries. Back to the bracket. I think we must not take Miss. State lightly. We lost to Colorado, folks. But getting to the second round with a chance at the 1 seed, huge. Love to see Duke Freshman against ours. We would need the game of the year from us to have a chance.

For 50-60 years a lot of good Baylor players and teams never got a chance at post season. We can't ever take this for granted.
