@CBSSports All 3 made the final four last year and 3 have championships in the last 8 years. It’s ok to let the lil guys shine every now and then.
@CBSSports 3 of these teams were in the Final Four last year and roughly half of this year’s Sweet 16 won’t get back there for another generation or ever win a championship. But get those clicks.
@CBSSports Which is a good thing. Need to see more schools & their programs become more competitive. Giving prospects more options to choose from.
@CBSSports @CBSSportsCBB It’s not just the portal in my opinion, it’s actually more so the extra Covid year as these freshmen heavy programs are up against teams full of 23-24 year olds these days.
@CBSSports NIL will continue to change the landscape. Love it.
@CBSSports I think you mean OR and not AND those four. I know that all four of those teams did not make 39 straight sweet 16’s
