Sean Miller.
Tied for 11th most Tournament wins since 2004.

Among active coaches or all coaches?

At what point can we make said implications?

When teams that were projected to actually do well begin to lose, lol.

 

[phyrekat]

So, like EVERY season up to this point?

Holy shot selection. Killed Texas. Can’t rely on freshmen.

I didn't know that past results mattered for this season. But if you say so.

 

[HenryMuto]

Congratulations Henry. Hope the luck runs out if they face the Cats though

Agreed

When the SEC is consistently losing games they were expected to win. That wasn’t the case tonight — Xavier was the favorite.

Madness. 16 games tomorrow! In the early evening time slot there will be 4 SEC teams playing at the same time on TNT, CBS, TBS, TruTV.

Texas had control of the game until Mark decided to go rogue and think he's someone who can do whatever he likes. They had that "we're up 10+, time to get mine" sequence and forgot that Xavier is a 3pt shooting team. It's only the NCAA Tournament, why care about a scouting report or winning when you get some FGA's up!

Thought the biggest sequence of the game was after Horns went up 4 with 4 straight FT's--there was a long rebound which Tre Johnson could've had and he went half assed after the ball--put out one hand--Xavier grabbed it--scored and never looked back. So instead of ball and chance to go up 6/7 pts--they are up 2 and played like a Rodney Terry coached team.

Xavier is the team who scares me the most of the potential 2nd Rd opponents and that remains. I think they'll beat Illinois too.

UH has not missed Mark at all the last two years.
