This is its own version of third-worldism. You go to African kleptocracies, and the dictator's picture is everywhere. The Left wants to impose those countries' policies. Trump wants to impose their branding. The taxpayers get stuck with the bill for both.

News: The NCAA Tournaments are officially changing to 76 teams. The men’s tournament will begin on the Tuesday after Selection Sunday, meaning the 2027 tournament will begin March 16. Instead of two games on Tuesday and Wednesday in Dayton, there will be three games each day in Dayton and three games each of the two days in a second city to be determined. The 12 games will be branded the March Madness Opening Round. The lowest-seeded 12 automatic qualifiers as seeded by the committees will play in half of the Opening Round games, while the other six games will feature the 12 lowest-seeded at-large teams.
The round of 64 will continue to be played Thursday and Friday, while the round of 32 remains Saturday and Sunday.

I think there is a chance that at some point in the near future, there will be a push within UK to force Mark Pope to hire a GM, whether he wants one or not
Kentucky essentially passed on Rancik because they were sure they were getting Freeman. They got neither
Mismanagement by a staff that insisted they didn’t need a GM. Fairly impossible to defend
2007 #17 Kentucky vs #1 LSU
The Wildcats come back from down 13 late in the 3rd quarter to defeat the #1 LSU Tigers in triple overtime.
This was the second time Kentucky has defeated a #1 ranked team.
One of the wildest games in a CRAZY season.
@bonchieredstate You really wonder that? What has given you any indication that they have one iota of self-awareness? They’re all talking to an audience of one, and they can sound as stupid as they want as long as that audience perceives
strength.
@MrsTylerKSR It’s because UF played like absolute crap and was begging to get upset but a) UK has nobody who can beat any of their guys off the bounce and b) the talent differential is so dramatic they comfortably won with a C- effort. It’s a jarring reminder of where this program is.
@AndyHutchins CC can’t beat anyone 1 on 1 and UF has elite rim protection to negate any slight advantage 00 might have. And the mismatches extend to the guys wearing quarter zips on the bench.
@DrewFranklinKSR In the spirit of the Gordie Howe hat trick (a goal, an assist, a fight), I think we need to create the BG Hat Trick: a 3, a dunk and a technical foul
Mitch Barnhart on his new $950K gig: "The notion that this golden parachute is falling from the ceiling and I'm going to sit in a rocking chair and eat hay is ridiculous garbage. And that notion that started by some -- two or three knuckleheads -- needs to end."
@RickMuscles Could not agree more. Aside from his assured future greatness, how do you get rid of him without knowing what’s next? That next hire could be worse. Bruce has other kids, paramours, etc.
