They completely slipped my mind in a UK//Florida thread.Don’t forget about Maryland!!!
In his defense, he had to put Florida in at a #1 seed to avoid putting all 4 champions classic teams in at #1 seeds, as if doing so would have made what he does from August to January even more of a joke than it already is.
That said, I’ve got a better chance of f**king Kate Upton than Kansas
and Kentucky being seeded 1 and 2 in the West.
Unlikely, but I wouldn't say it's inconceivable. The West really doesn't need to be hosting a Regional every year. I made the argument already, and I think it's a legitimate argument. And I'm saying that as someone who really enjoys watching Gonzaga play.
West Region 1/2 Seed in Recent History
2019: Gonzaga, Michigan
2018: Xavier, North Carolina
2017: Gonzaga, Arizona
2016: Oregon, Oklahoma
2015: Wisconsin, Arizona
2014: Arizona, Wisconsin
2013: Gonzaga, Ohio State
2012: Michigan State, Missouri
2011: Duke, San Diego State
2010: Syracuse, Kansas State
2009: UConn, Memphis
2018 and 2009 certainly had teams that you wouldn't both expect to be in the West Region as 1 & 2 seeds. 2010 has two teams that cumulatively are more eastern oriented than Kansas and Kentucky (maybe 2012 as well?). It could happen, but not super likely. Just wish the regions were geographically more balanced. Schools that are located in the West Region comprise just 15% of the 1 seeds this century and just 7.5% of the FF teams. Eastern schools typically do very poor in the West Region.
I honestly think Kahlil Whitney is going to be, by far, UK's best player.To start the year I'd have them ranked higher. You can make a case they have the two best players. Long term I like UK's potential more. I think Maxey is going to be an AA caliber player. UK is missing a big post player like Blackshear would have been. If that means we have Brooks and Whitney playing there more I think it'll work for the best.
It's close. Honestly, I'm pretty set on my top three being Michigan State, Kansas, and Louisville. Between 4-6, I'm deliberating between Kentucky, Florida, and Duke. I'd give a slight edge to Florida. They have arguably two top 50 players in Blackshear and Nembhard. Throw in a few more returning players in Locke and Johnson and two 5-star recruits, and you got yourself a legitimate Final Four contender.
Kentucky looks really good, too. But I like UF with the experience factor. And UK's recruits aren't head and shoulders ahead of Florida's recruit like they normally are. The biggest question mark for UK will be the frontcourt. EJ could have a breakout year. And Sestina can shoot. We'll see how things shake out; I'm expecting a very close race down the stretch of conference play.
Where is your full list
Forgot to include 3-pt percentages for some reason. Oh well.
No dude, what you forgot to include was MICHIGAN! #neverforget
I understand the disdain lolFlorida will be good, especially with that asshole Kerry Blackshear Jr.
As much as I love KU, they have several huge questions to go along with the top recruits and the returning players. Have we got solid three point shooting, will Dok stay healthy, and will the bench develop quickly are, in my mind the big three. If so we cut down the nets in March.
That sucks, with the roster that KU has this year, they should be better than the sweet 16.As much as I love KU, they have several huge questions to go along with the top recruits and the returning players.
