N: ISU is 1-3 in conference after losing to Texas. V: this is pretty much the opposite record I expected ISU to be at right now. It's early, so there is still plenty of time to turn things around, but ISU needs to get things together, or else they'll end up like an 8 seed. Prohm got put in a tough spot, he had to come out and keep this team a winner, and then try to establish the program after most of the team graduates this year. Falling behind now, will not help the rebuilding effort to come over the next couple of years. Losing Mitrou-Long early in the season hurt way more than I anticipated. The lack of depth really is starting to show I think.

I guess the Kim Anderson hire makes more sense if the administration knew about all of this. Jesus, I didn't think it'd be possible for me to hate the Frank Haith hire more than I already did.

If I'm reading this right Missouri received the initial NCAA letter on April 14, 2014. Frank Haith took the Tulsa job on April 18, 2014.

Legit laughed when I read about this. They'll lose a scholarship or two too which sucks but whatever. Kim's gonna get two more years just to get all of that done I bet. And yeah Frank Haith got out of town 4 days after they heard from the NCAA.

So I haven't posted much but I still love Danny Manning and Bryant Crawford may be Wake's best overall point guard since Chris Paul and it owns.

Would have taken it at the start of the season, but Iowa's currently projected as a 2 seed in a lot of places (where they'd mostly likely play the first round in Des Moines which would be rad as hell). That might be a little optimistic but somewhere in the 2-5 range seems reasonable with the way things are going. They've got games in the next two weeks against Maryland, Purdue, and Michigan and after that their conference schedule is pretty easy sailing, at least on paper. They're most of the way through the hard part of it and haven't lost one yet. I am waiting for the other shoe to drop though.

I think Iowa gets bumped to 3 thanks to some bullshit team like Duke, but they're definitely going to make some noise.

I figure he's gonna have his pick of a P5 job which prices us out. Nice to hear someone not talk down UNLV, though. I was beginning to think that maybe it isn't a good place on paper.

Providence losing really put a nice little bow on this week setting fire to the Top 25. Let's recap the last week: 1 Kansas - Lost to West Virginia 2 Oklahoma - Did Not Lose 3 Maryland - Lost to Michigan 4 Michigan State - Lost to Iowa 5 North Carolina - Did Not Lose 6 Villanova - Did Not Lose 7 Xavier - Did Not Lose 8 Miami (FL) - Lost to Virginia and Clemson 9 Duke - Lost to Clemson and Notre Dame 10 SMU - Did Not Lose but is still ineligible for the postseason 11 West Virginia - Lost to Oklahoma 12 Providence - Lost to Seton Hall 13 Virginia - Did Not Lose but has lost two of their last three 14 Kentucky - Lost to Auburn 15 Texas A&M - Did Not Lose 16 Iowa - Did Not Lose 17 Iowa State - Lost to Texas 18 Arizona - Did Not Lose but has lost two of their last four 19 South Carolina - Lost to Alabama 20 Pittsburgh - Lost to Louisville 21 Louisville - Lost to Clemson 22 Baylor - Did Not Lose 23 Butler - Lost to Villanova 24 Purdue - Lost to Illinois 25 Gonzaga - Lost to BYU So, we have 15 teams that lost a game in the last week, two more that have stumbled a lot recently, and the only unbeaten team cannot go to the NCAA Tournament. The moral of the story is, don't gently caress with Clemson, apparently.

UNC dropped a game to a UNI team that's crap now and fell behind to NC State at home before getting their poo poo together. I don't think they're going to be consistent enough to win the whole thing.

I mean, I don't think OU, KU, or even Sparty without Valentine had a loss that looks as bad as that UNI one so far. It'd be one thing if everyone had a loss to an unranked team, but that's not the case. So, yeah, I still think consistency is an issue for them when it comes to a championship conversation.

Fair enough. I just think you're weighting (1) a November game too heavily, and (2) forgetting they didn't have Marcus Page for that game.
