Sean Miller losing to Kennesaw State
- Thread starter DruidTM
- Start date
Miller is the 2nd worst NCAAT coach by performance vs seed behind Dixon
Although I picked Houston, they looked beatable against NKU last night as well. This might be one of the more favorable brackets I can recall Pitt having in the tournament… need to take advantage of it!
The next step for Capel is to land these "Tier 1" transfers like you see teams like Xavier get. The CUSA leading scorer and 8 foot tall Nunge from Iowa
Damn this is great.
Would love to see Miller take the L. Would love it even better facing Kennessaw on Sunday.

who had "two missed layups in the final minute of a tied game" as a prop bet?
Two egregious fouls by Xavier on the last possession. Elbowing the ball handler’s neck on the drive and hacking the arm of the rebounder after the miss.
And they bring in Gene Steratore for his opinion, and he completely ignores the guy who the foul would have been on to concentrate on what a different guy was doing.
But that's the thing. Gene wasn't even talking about the guy who swiped at the ball. He was talking about the guy closer to the baseline who reached in after the other dude smacked the KS player right across the forearm.
The other thing that he mentioned was the the KS player didn't have clear possession. Which was probably true, and is also absolutely immaterial. The notion that you can't call a foul until the rebounder has clear possession is just nuts.
The only reason why I noticed it was he said the guy's name, and then you could see that guy's name on the back of his jersey right at the end of the replay. He wasn't talking about the guy who came from kind of behind the guy who smacked the rebounder right across the arm.
Got it. I think the first one could have been called as well. But 3 grabbing his arm directly compromised his ability to keep possession. I guess refs can’t see everything.
It’s just wrong. When at the one end of the court the announcer says, “Once you swing that arm the call has to be made”, and then, at the other end “rules expert“ Gene Sterratore says, “I didn’t see anything”.
It’s wrong. I didn’t care who won that game but, it’s just wrong.
