Nodak78 Posted March 16, 2023 Posted March 16, 2023 Duke 15-2. Tough time with Duke's height and length Quote

SWSiouxMN Posted March 17, 2023 Author Posted March 17, 2023 ORU needed to jump on Duke early and scare their freshman, never did it. Duke was an awful draw for them all the way. They would have beaten Tennessee or Miami, no doubt in my mind. Duke might make a deep run, they are peaking at the right time. Quote

JohnboyND7 Posted March 17, 2023 Posted March 17, 2023 Oral Bob shot the lights out against NDSU. Must have used all that good will... didn't save some for tonight. My bracket is wrecked. Had UVA in the title and UA in the elite 8. I dont watch a ton of ball, was very gut heavy lol Quote
petey23 Posted March 17, 2023 Posted March 17, 2023 Bracket is busted. Number Board hasn't hit yet. But on the bright side did hit a 4 game parlay and 6 game teaser today! Quote
The Sicatoka Posted March 17, 2023 Posted March 17, 2023 Busted brackets? I learned my lesson a couple-three-or-so decades ago: I was working on a grad project using Monte Carlo simulation so I had access to a pretty solid random number generator. I came up with a weighted process, generated at that time 63 random numbers, and followed the process for each game round by round to fill out a bracket. I then made my picks. I turned in two brackets. I came in bottom half of over 200. The random number generator came in third. 3 Quote

I know that may seem like a smaller jump than anticipated but it sounds like McCasland is the lead for the Texas Tech job. Quote

I think he stays at Oral Roberts. Signed an 8 year contract after their 2021 tournament run. I think he stays at Oral Roberts at least another year or two until the right job opens up for him to continue to progress in his coaching career. Quote

I'd think he'd want an MVC school over UNT. I wouldn't think so. Especially with ORU's AD already saying on record that they are willing to do anything and everything they can to keep him the head coach at ORU as long as possible, I just couldn't see it. I guess who really knows, but I feel like he will be patient and wait for the perfect opportunity before leaving ORU. Quote
sioux24/7 Posted March 17, 2023 Posted March 17, 2023 North Texas has been a rock solid program since McCasland has been there. I agree he will likely only go for something bigger though. It seems like a faith based school is important too. Quote

fightingsioux4life Posted March 18, 2023 Posted March 18, 2023 And more brackets go up in flames. Quote
