There was zero shot they'd lose to Nebraska.

I don't see Shaka getting fired now.
I'd suggest it depends on your definition of home run. There might be a particular assistant or a 2nd tier program coach that he already has his eye on.
This is the first time the Bickerstaff timing/qualification intrigues me. Does he want to be a lead assistant in the NBA or take a chance of building a fiefdom in college basketball?

I'm guessing Pitino is done. 100% guess.
I think Bickerstaff is staying with the Cavs as the head coach for now.

The dream is dead. Well, not really a dream. Just a baseless prediction in hopes of getting something decent in to replace little Richard.

Meh. Wasn't that enthused over him. I want a proven college HC.

Let's see what happens tomorrow against Iowa.

2 wins from the tourney. Hilariously we also need 2 to qualify for NIT.

Yep. It's win this thing or bust. Even a championship game appearance does you no good.

Root for WI on the other side. They seem to be our best matchup.

I doubt we get through Iowa tomorrow though.
