It is that time of year in college basketball: Universities are considering whether to extend coaches’ soon-to-expire contracts, fire their coaches, or — in an underappreciated move — wait and see.

The key issues for both Wisconsin and North Carolina coming into Thursday’s Sweet 16 contest revolve around injuries. However, these concerns exist on different ends of the spectrum. For the Badgers, the team reported that Traevon Jackson will play in his first game since January. However, the role Jackson will play is the main question. When […]

On the eve of the 2015 Sweet 16, there’s nothing wrong with reliving any high-quality Sweet 16 from the NCAA tournament’s glorious past. Yet, this just so happens to be the 25th anniversary of the 1990 Sweet 16. The 1997 Sweet 16 — with three overtime games and Arizona’s monumental upset of Kansas — could […]

Kansas State head coach Bruce Weber enjoyed a great start to his tenure as the Wildcats’ head coach, winning a share of the Big 12 championship in 2013. However, the Wildcats finished fifth in the league last season and a disappointing eighth in 2015 after being picked fourth in the preseason. Weber is also yet […]

There’s a scene in the epic Kevin Smith comedy sequel, Clerks II, when near the end (spoiler alert … if that’s possible with a near decade-old movie), they’re all in a jail cell pondering how they were going to get out of their predicament (go find out on your own).

Last week, before the NCAA tournament began, we seeded the field 1-68 in three different categories. It’s fascinating to look back at these lists one week later, if only because these placements might strike you as either more enlightened than they were to begin with, or really frickin’ dumb. The list that’s most relevant to […]

There are many kinds of college basketball fans, and in a sport with 351 Division I teams, there’s room for many kinds of fans. Speaking personally, I love the round of 32, which just concluded over the weekend. The mixture of underdogs (the 11 seeds that break through, the 8 seeds that wake up) and […]
