2021 Tournament thread

It was fun to watch short-handed, injury riddled Drake beat Wichita State. WS left the Missouri Valley because they had no competition. Take that Shockers!
Drake was behind 12 two different times. Once in the 1st half and again in the 2nd half.
Probably helped that their coach got an 8 year extension the day before.

So $150k a year for 6 years? I guess that’ll pay an assistant coach’s salary.
I don't understand. what am I looking at here? the Insta posts says this is comparing men's and women's tourney "set up", but the top pic shows women working out and the bottom shows a sign referencing the women's tourney.
what is the influencer trying to get at?
what is 'DBs' in this context?
I believe the women in there are just cleaning crew. DBs are dumbbells. Honestly it's even more messed up than I thought. That one set of dumbells is the entire women's weightroom. Not even multiple sets.
thanks. the OU player's video was very helpful.
MSU lost that game more than UCLA won it. UCLA had no business winning that game.
Yeah I kept saying that I expected MSU to pull away again but they turtled super hard. UCLA being hot from 3 got them back into it, but after that it was MSU imploding.
If you have a 5 point lead in the last minute of the game and end up losing you’ve choked on your own dick.
That missed 1 and 1 that turned into a 3... woof.
Inside the NBA is the best sports talking head show, bar none. But Chuck and Kenny do not watch ANY college basketball until the tournament, not just Pac-12 basketball. It's been a pet peeve of mine ever since they've started have those guys do the tournament. Hopefully having Andy Katz with them will help, I don't remember them having Katz in studio with them in previous years.
They break down games OK, but the banter is crap cause they don't know ****.
Influencer? She's a ****ing performance coach at Stanford.
Crazy how Hokie was able to fill in a blank with context there.
Thank you, that's my mistake.
I was under the impression that 'influencer' was the generic term for "person who posts on Instagram". I should've, but didn't, realize it was reserved for those with, duh, 'influence'.

initially posted something less thoughtful, but need to say that reading this was really disheartening
seems like your natural reaction was to blame the women wanting some semblance of fairness and support here and assuming they are "social media influencers" looking for airtime or something – I appreciate you acknowledging a misunderstanding but if we don't acknowledge our unconscious biases, progress is impossible

Huh?
I just read your post, re-read mine, re-read yours.
I have no idea what basis you used to leap from what I said to what you perceived my "natural reaction".
It was clear the poster was trying to make a point regarding equal treatment of men's/women's tourney participats. They stated the images were supposed to illustrate this disparity. The images did not seem to address that all, as it appeared both images were showing the women's "weight rooms".
I simply asked questions trying to clear that up.
You may be projecting.
So some people are talking about money taken in as a reason for the men's vs women's discrepancy, and on a certain level, they have a point. Maybe things don't have to be on a one to one level.
But when I see one tiny tower of dumbbells vs a gigantic weight room, it's almost like the NCAA was intentionally trying to insult the women.

Nah
The swag bag is all about revenue. The disparity in weight rooms is the NCAA being a clown show.

it's amazing they get to hold onto their 501c3 status (for many reasons), but the whole point of being a non-profit is so they don't need to worry about directly correlating support to revenue...obviously there will be some of that, and that's ok, but this is egregious
sorry for coming in so hot @hokiehead

Colgate hanging with Arkansas.
Yeah, but blowing a 14-point lead in like 5 minutes before half is going to sting. Maybe they come out strong again in the 2nd, but wouldn't be surprised to see them fold a bit after that.
