Texas A&M got jobbed
Did the NCAA Tournament selection committee watch the SEC Tournament? There’s no way it paid proper attention.

ESPN should replace Michigan State with Villanova in the Champions Classic

I’m calling on the NCAA to boycott Texas (again) after SCOTUS allows abortion ban
After the U.S. Supreme Court sat back and did nothing on Wednesday, a law went into effect in Texas that bans most abortions after six weeks. Next March, Fort Worth will host some of the first and second-round games of the Men’s NCAA Tournament, and San Antonio will be a regional site for the Sweet […]
