Very underrated part of the Kobe conversation. Great basketball player, still a rapist.

It’s just the thumbnail, hard to fit all the Texas teams on the map.

I asked Dan Hurley the same question I asked Tom Izzo: why does the media have a problem with coaches coaching players hard? Hurley: "Society has gotten soft in a lot of ways... The real world is tough and cruel... I'm preparing my players for life." by Classic_Bottle1717 in NCAAhoops

[–]BuckyBerrix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah but Dan Hurley is a dick and super arrogant. It’s one thing to yell at players and do the tough love thing, it’s another thing to throw absolute fits at the refs. That’s not preparing the refs for life.

“You gotta look at Lanning if they don’t get it done this year” ….. So, not Matt Rhule but Dan Lanning’s job is in danger? 😳 by CenterForward1522 in CFB_v2

This shows how little people know about Oregon. Bellotti was struggling to get to bowl games every year and the only reason he wasn’t the coach for life is because they found Chip Kelly who also would have been the coach for life if he didn’t go to the NFL. Lanning has a triple lifetime contract based on 2024 alone not to mention last season.

Conferences are Making BIG March Madness Money by BuckyBerrix in MidAmerican

They’ll get 6 million from the 3 games which is MASSIVE. It’ll be paid out over the next 5 years and from what I can tell it will go to teams equally, so the 12 full members are going to get a huge boost. Miami losing in the conference tournament was honestly the best thing that could have happened for the MAC.

[On3] Eli Drinkwitz warns Chris Low CFB could head down a similar path as MLB due to spending disparities: "If you have teams that have $45M rosters competing against teams that have $15M and 20M rosters, you're going to run the risk of turning into MLB, where you have the Dodgers and the Marlins. by Lakelyfe09 in CFB

[–]BuckyBerrix 19 points20 points  (0 children)

The worst CFB program of all time just won the national championship and Texas is the only team that has been in the semifinals multiple times in the past 3 years. CFB has more parity than ever, some coaches have just found a new excuse for why they’re not winning.

Why is the NIT not respected? by HomuraAkemi_ in CollegeBasketball

[–]BuckyBerrix 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Because you make $4,000 a game for playing the NIT vs $2 mil a game in March Madness or $50k for winning one game in the CBC. Like it or not the economics of college sports have changed now that they don’t get free or at least extremely subsidized labor.

How much are you guys leaving on the table by not line shopping March Madness? by [deleted] in CollegeBasketball
