In his 15th year?Fran is the first coach to win a game as a 15-seed in the B1G tournament.
True.Fran is the first coach to win a game as a 15-seed in the B1G tournament.
Jeeeeebus, tOSU men’s team must have been as over “seeded” as the UIowa women’s BB team was under “seeded”!True.
Also true: No 15-seed has ever lost an opening round game in the B1G Tournament.
I would like to do everyone here the disservice of bringing up the one Fran era postseason game which really sticks in my craw:
NCAA tourney game versus Oregon.
From the opening tip, it looked like teams from 2 different levels of basketball out there.
Looked like Oregon was division 1, and Iowa was div 2 or div 3 or Juco.
And that’s really bullshit…if it’s a Conference tourney, all schools (if in “good standing”) need to be represented in the field.All three lower seeds advance after day one, but teams 16, 17, and 18 need not apply.
That only helps for 1 year and pays Freeman salary. You need to win a bigger lottery or give moe.If I won the lottery, yeah I'd earmark $1 million specifically for men's basketball.
