Twenty-six athletes at Iowa, 15 at ISU. Big yikes.

Had to happen eventually--a State player transferring elsewhere in the league, that is. Ebe played high school ball in Georgia so this move makes sense.

Hours after Syracuse lost to Wake in the ACC tourney, Jim Boeheim is finished. Feels overdue.

It's been a rough year in South Bend and lately the Irish have been missing the NCAAs more often than not, so I guess this isn't terribly surprising. Still weird though.
Who’s up for expanding the NCAA tournament?
What’s the correct amount of March Madness?
USC and UCLA are leaving the Pac-12 for the Big Ten
It’s not good for college sports, but it’s a sign of the times.
Manny Bates is headed to Butler

Losing Manny Bates was rough, but at least he left for a school I neither like nor dislike, and that NC State doesn't have to play. [insert Alonzo Mourning gif here]

"We made a deep tournament run," they'll say. "We played for the national championship," they'll say. See, we figured out how to not win a national title like four months ago. Now who's the sucker.
Looks like Chris Mack is out at Louisville
Given his track record at Xavier, he seemed like a great hire for Louisville when it happened. Instead it's gone completely sideways. Just never know.
ACC talking with Big Ten and Pac-12 about an alliance of some kind

— Travis Ragsdale (@TravisRagsdale) May 18, 2021
U.S. Attorney alleges during a March 17 meeting with UofL officials, Gaudio threatened expose recruiting violations to the media. More coming.
Well here's a wild development. Remember Dino Gaudio, the coach who did an okay job at Wake and more recently had been an assistant at Louisville? He tried to blackmail UL into paying him 17 months' worth of salary. (He was fired in March.) Like damn, dude, you got gambling debts or something?
UNC is promoting Hubert Davis to head coach
North Carolina is expected to promote longtime assistant Hubert Davis as Roy Williams' replacement, sources confirmed to ESPN. @InsideCarolina and @clbrownhoops first to report.

Let's hope the strict adherence to their brain-damaged "keep it in the family" philosophy sets them back again.
