Ugh, poor Jontay. I guess the Porter family doesn't have great longevity genes, since MPJ, Jontay, and Sierra all have had serious injuries. Wonder if he comes back or tries to get drafted or what.

ISU writers keep mentioning Steve Prohm for the job which would seem like a massive downgrade for him even though he's an alum. Though it'd actually be kinda perfect timing for ISU if it happened soonish since Nebraska is dragging it's feet on firing poor Tim Miles and hiring Hoiberg.

This would be bizarre and unexpected, so ISU hiring Hoiberg again is exactly what will happen. Though the Prohm to Alabama rumors were started by like one guy in Alabama who knows essentially nothing.

Quoting this across from Gameday:

If that doesn’t say enough about how chalky and top-heavy this tournament is, consider that if present scores hold, the top 14 teams in Kenpom will all still be alive, plus #18 LSU. Kansas got knocked out by a more efficient team in Auburn, and Iowa State in this scheme would’ve lost to Houston, so that hilariously leaves Wisconsin as the only team to spurn the Sweet 16 spot their efficiency dictates.

When I was 17, my father was so stupid, I didn't want to be seen with him in public. When I was 24, I was amazed at how much the old man had learned in just 7 years.

Bad, very bad!
Avenatti went ahead with his announcement about Nike because he's smart like that (he's basically admitting to elements of the crime he's accused of). But anyway, he named DeAndre Ayton (again) and Bol Bol. He also tweeted a link to this article from 2017.

I would be underwhelmed if I actually expected anything to come of this from him. He also managed to misspell Adidas.

Holy poo poo, Arkansas fired Mike Anderson.

Not that he was amazing there I guess but that was just not on my radar as something that would happen.

e: Early speculation is they'll go after Kelvin Sampson.

Kelvin Sampson is their Plan A, B, C, and their only plan. He’ll be offered some time this week and it just comes down to whether he wants to start over in his mid 60s in the SEC.

Recent history says yes, but then Sampson turned down the Orlando Magic last year.

Even if he turns Arkansas down, Sampson’s due a significant raise.
