Is this the year when coach Mike Brey gets his Notre Dame team to the second weekend of the NCAA tournament. Its something that hasn’t happened for Notre Dame in quite some time, but it looks like Brey finally has the squad to do. Notre Dame has always been a great jump-shooting team, but nowContinue reading “When Irish Eyes are Smiling (Welcome Coastal Carolina, Northern Iowa, North Florida)”

Three’s Company
There’s a team in California that no one is talking about. This team not only plays after most of the country is asleep, it doesn’t even play on TV. The UC Davis Aggies are 21-4 and 11-1 in the Big West and it’s in large part because they’re the best in the nation in three-point shooting percentage. Senior guardContinue reading “Three’s Company”
Super Nova (Welcome Wichita St, Mercer, Coastal Carolina)
How can a team, with recent Final Four pedigree and only three losses fly under the radar? That’s exactly what’s happened to Villanova.

It was one of the more impressive performances I’ve seen this season and served notice to Syracuse andContinue reading “Carolina BBQ (Welcome Creighton)”
Even More Conference Tournament Previews
SUMMIT LEAGUE: The Oakland Grizzlies are in complete control over this league – cruising through conference with only one loss. Greg Kampe’s squad is one of the best mid-majors in the country. They beat Tennessee and had near-misses against Illinois and Michigan St. A championship game against IUPUI or Oral Roberts may be difficult, butContinue reading “Even More Conference Tournament Previews”
Conference Tournament Previews (Addendum)
SUN BELT: Troy, North Texas and Middle Tennessee St all tied for the overall conference title with 13-5 records. Troy is the No. 1 seed by way of a 2-1 record against UNT AND MTSU. However, the Trojans has been done no favors by having Western Kentucky on its side of the bracket. There’s notContinue reading “Conference Tournament Previews (Addendum)”
