I haven't followed the MBB tournment. Have there been any upsets? ***

20 million up in smoke as Iowa State smokes UK. They are trying to blame it on their PG being out for the year.
Iowa over Florida. Honestly thought Clemson would beat Iowa and give the Gators all they wanted. Big win for the Hawkeyes.
No real Cinderella this year. Don't think there was last year either. Some blaming it on NIL/Portal.
That's what I loved about the NCAA Tournment, there was always a Cinderella team.
Only a 5,6,9, and 11 seed outside the top 4 in each bracket. A lot of chalk in the sweet 16. No one will lump Texas as a Cinderella, but they were in the play in game. Iowa is a good story but probably come to an end.
Understandable some are blaming the NIL/portal. Hard to be a cinderalla and a senior laden team when the better players will typically follow the money.
He's referring to the alleged amount Kentucky spent in NIL money on their roster, nearly twice what the 2nd most expensive roster in the SEC allegedly cost. That payroll got them a #9 seed in the SEC tournament and bounced from the Round of 32 in the NCAA tournament.
