<![CDATA[Bracketology watch]]>Updates can be found here.

Lunardi updated today.
Somehow after last night he still has us at a 3. Nebraska, Illinois, ISU and Houston occupy the two line. Dude must really hate Houston because polls show them ranked 3rd. I don't pay too much attention to the regions we're projected to be in this far out.

Jerry Palm no update with last nights results. We're at a 3.

One thing about projected seeds, like I said about Houston is if you say who is seeded higher than them whom you think they should replace?

If we're a 3, I can see ISU going to do a 3 now and us moving up, or possibly Illinois moving down. I don't want to be a believer in Illinois. They're really pretty good this year but play a very modern NBA/European style with lots of bombs and that makes them susceptible to shooting slumps. They've had a couple of losses that aren't great losses. They also have road wins that looked big, like winning at Purdue, but Purdue been slumping.

Do agree that we should be All-In on men's basketball and football.

Especially while our bread and butter Men’s basketball struggles. How much of a this is effecting that budget and maybe we should just stick to what we know in Lawrence. Having one national renowned program is better than a dozen mid tier programs imo.

The women fall tonight in KC in second round action to Colorado and that likely ends their bid for the NCAA tournament. They needed to bare minimum win this evening. Will be interesting to see if they accept an NIT bid and if Schneider will be relieved of his duties.

He needs to be fired now regardless of what happens in the WNIT because there are zero good reasons why a team with this much talent was the 11 seed.

They have just failed to win close games. Believe they have like 8 losses by one or two possessions. He probably gets another chance if they get in.

I know this is women’s but a huge win on senior night for the ladies 68-59 over #20 Tech. They were on the first 4 out coming into this evening.

Schneider is really going to do just enough to save his job again. The women have been such a disappointment this year. They should not be a bubble team, they should be contending for a Big 12 title with the talent they have on that team especially since the Big 12 isn't that strong right now.

I love belting out a bluegrass or flamenco tune when I have the time but I always have to simplify them or slow them down (a lot!) because I can't keep up with Doc Watson or Pedro Javier Gonzales. Norwegian Wood is a great song but I've never tried playing it before.

Fellow picker? I enjoy playing The Beatles' Norwegian Wood and putting my left pinky to work, so I'll put Groundhog on my list of songs to learn this year... it looks fun.

BUT - - -

Got to thinking I got to wondering about idiots that ARE getting all twisted/not happy with the way our program is going. I KNOW -- I KNOW for a fact there are some that are never happy about things and are not happy with where the program is at now.

Their thought is ---like we are having good season this yr ?- -yes we are BUT you have people wondering how long has it been since -- we have won a Conference Championship ? How long has it been since we made the final four ?- -a National title ?

These people aren't reasonable / logical but they are here- - -never happy , but they ARE feeling they are being short with Bill.- -Makes me wonder it's a no win situation , makes me wonder you know with Bill's health and restless Natives just wonder if Bill just says screw this and retires soon. -- not much more Bill has to gain by staying to put up with the BS. I mean he has accomplished all the consecutive Conference Championships-- won Conference Coach of the yr- -National Coach of the yr- - --Multiple big Twelve post Season champions-- -has won multiple National Championships and is a HOF Coach what else does he need to prove ?

Houston still wins.. BYU needs OT to get by Colorado in Provo. WVU knocks off UCF in Orlando.

Pretty eventful day. Houston is at the top, for now. Are they a #1 seed?

They have displayed something magical. They pick each other up. They communicate on both ends of the court. They do not back down and they do not fear success.

Who cares. Hey, you might have a scoop for the #1 seeds. Woohoo. We all see the rankings. Lunardi historically only gets about 10% of the bracket right THE DAY before the tournament selection. I will not post again in this thread unless I get irritated again. Which will happen. Farmer's almanac is BS too, FYI, as is that groundhog crap. My sister was born on February 2, and she casts a big shadow every day. Big, I tell ya.
