Iu has officially a mid major

I bet you were the kid in school who asked to be beat up!

We Hatchets do the beating up and if we get beat up we don't complain. We take our beating like men.

Uh, ok I'll take note.

They have to cut him loose sooner rather than later because of the effect on recruiting. Since Duncomb is the only recruit he has lined up we lose next to nothing in recruits at risk. He needs to go after this year.

It’s not. I agree. But you have to factor in the darling of the ncaa component and no way the NCAA leaves their princess out of the dance.

I wouldn't say "no way." They'll need to turn it on to get a bid.

And DUKE had started to do that, then along came tonight. Ouch.

That's a second Q3 loss for them if you're scoring at home (or even if you're alone).

Would love to know what the odds were at the start of the season that Duke wouldn’t make the tourney. The odds that Kentucky not make the tourney and then the odds that both don’t!

The only possible thing saving Duke is their metrics right now (KenPom, etc.). But those have their "talent" baked into the number which all of us are still waiting to see. Their best win is against a Clemson team that has lost by 20+ like 4 times in their last 5 games. That Clemson team also beat Purdue... lol

OK-
RMK from mid major Army-success
Sampson from P5 Oklahoma-fail
Crean from bball major Marquette-fail
Davis-epic fail by AD and BOT in hiring coach with NO Head Coach experience

It does not matter where you "came from", if you can coach.
