My NCAA Prediction . . .
-
I’m not good at these guesses and I usually jinx everything…
I feel like Baylor is going to get the shaft. I’m predicting a Baylor/Dayton bracket. And that is a game I would LOVE to see!
I don’t think it matters who we play this year. Either we show up like we did at Baylor, or we go home early, regardless who is in our bracket.
If we show up every game, we win it all!
After us, I’m supporting Baylor this year! I’m going to miss that team. Caught many of their games including their thriller last night.
-
Scary part is 4/5 of that starting rotation could return and they have the potential to be just as much a pain in the conference next year
-
@justanotherfan Not a bad list. I would move Seton Hall and Creighton up to tier 2 and maybe Iowa as well. Seton Hall is legit.
I would also move Maryland off of tier two.
-
I do NOT want to see Michigan State.

I welcome the challenge. It’s going to be interesting next year. I think we could lose a bit defensively due to no Dok but the offense could be better.
-
Yep… but I expect a few early departures for the NBA. Then it is a question of gelling another team like this one. And players staying healthy.
I’d keep an eye on TTech next year, too. Ramsey possibly returning?

I expect Butler will test and I think he is a pro now but I haven’t seen if he is likely to go. Mock’s have had him in the early 2nd round. I don’t think anyone else is likely to leave them but they did stockpile talent through the transfer route again and got 3 Top 100 kids to sign in the fall. Baylor isn’t going away.
Agree on Tech. Moretti may go play overseas which would hurt but its also probably the reason why they were able to sign a Top 20 player in the country at PG. 2 other Top 100 kids and a transfer join a very young squad. I could see Edwards, McCullar & Shannon taking big leaps for them next season.
I’m expecting the Big-12 to be improved Top to Bottom next year but that’s before transfer season hits… If the NCAA passes that 1 year transfer rule there is no telling what is going to happen
-
@BShark Neither do I.
-
RE Seeding: I fully expect KU to be matched up in a bracket with Houston (Grimes) or Iowa (Moss) just for the NCAA’s amusement.

I would upvote this 10 times if I could.

I mostly agree - I kinda like watching them lose, but otherwise it’s boring basketball…yeah I know what you meant, just playing.
-
Everything now comes down to who is healthy.
For instance, if KU lost either Doke or Dotson, I would drop them to Tier 2. If they lost both, they would probably be Tier 3. But every team in the country is like that. If they lose a certain guy or two, they drop at least one tier, maybe two tiers. Nobody has enough margin of error to make it through a major injury for more than maybe one game.

Are we even going to have a tournament?

looking a little un-settled

Let’s think this through…if it is cancelled, maybe we can get another Helms Championship!
-

Probably going to be a tournament. It may be that some/all games are played without spectators.
-
Let’s get a vote on what we think will happen:
-
The NCAA Tournament will continue as usual but with a few adjustments, like hand sanitizers at every gate. Maybe require masks.
-
The NCAA Tournament will continue but without an audience.
-
The NCAA Tournament will be cancelled all together.
-
-
I think somewhere between 1 and 2.

Would think 2 from what I’ve been hearing

I’m going with #1. $$$ prevails.

Moved this to a new thread…
-
@KirkIsMyHinrich I hope to god it is between 1 and 2. If they feel the need to enact 3 then the damn thing is spreading much faster than I thought that it would or could. The dumb fucks - yes, I’m saying it - just won’t stay home and self-quarantine, will they?

And then someone stole my Helms line. Sniff…

It’s a dose filled in a bottomless medicine cup! Keep a steady flow and flush out all the toxic seriousness from your life!

Rock Chalk, my friend!

The NCAA still hasn’t announced their intention for the tournament.
The college conferences have acted. Several universities including KU have announced the suspension of all sports. The NBA, MBL, NHL, tennis… pretty much everyone has made a decision already.
What does this protracted delay indicate about the NCAA’s decision-making capabilities?
-
They will announce something tomorrow it looks like.
-
I bet they’re figuring out logistics and working with the institutions to figure out if a suspension is even possible. If we wait a month we’ll be playing during some final exam weeks and graduations.
-
@FarmerJayhawk Virtual graduations. I’m sure they won’t let anyone attend.
-
So if this is it for the season which it is, how was the dunk race between Doke and Obi? @BeddieKU23 Also Doke should officially have the FG% record. Silver lining I suppose.

I’m gonna predict ther won’t be any tourney in 2020. - I know sick sense of humor - - - sorry

heck ya , glad got another Jayhawk that’s got that sense at least a little bit of as you say Gallows.
I mean yes I know they did what they feel needed done, but STILL sucks. Again I feel so bad for Doke , kid busted his ass and not ONE single minute of tournament play
I can just all the ass hats - -making snide remarks , saying at least Justice was served about How KU wouldn’t be able to win the title - -how the muggers, women beaters money cheaters KU that old Rug Head and his things got what they deserved. - - I can just hear it now - -
Looking for someone that might have that extra bottle of lube now gonna bend over and grab my ankles lol- - that’s just the way my gut feels now - -this Championship - -WAS OURS DAMMIT. - - ooops sorry my friends just frustration being released - - gonna go buy my 40 and say screw it. - -Doke is done - - Devon is Done - Moss is Done and we didn’t get to enjoy these final what 9 games just a bunch of crap - - - ROCK CHALK MY FRIENDS
-
You had a great thread going @Marco but nothing kills a NCAA predictions thread like the cancellation of the whole thing!
-
The juco National tourney is postponing til end of April
-
Time to get a list of “best of” the NCAA Tournament. We’ll be watching re-runs.

I’m feeling for you buddy , DAM what a depressing day - I know you would just like all the restof us would be watching the boys for sure - It was our year - - -IT WAS OUR YEAR
-
I was really looking forward to 9 more games with glorious dunks by Doke, scintillating drives by Dotson and sneaky steals by Garrett.
The record will speak for itself.
The South Carolina women’s basketball coach suggested that she would accept the national championship given that they were ranked #1.
-
My prediction? We will be a force in the '20-'21 NCAA Tournament…
-
@bskeet still sad
