Charleston upsets second-seeded Gannon, 69-65, in today's second regional quarterfinal. Markyia McCormick finished with 27 points for the Golden Eagles.
Anyone realize that Nike is cool with athletes lit at strip clubs flashing guns but not cool with Kyrie speaking on human rights and sharing a link to a film.. 🙃
Once a team is permitted to play Division 1 basketball, they should be automatically eligible for the tournament. NCAA - let's remember it’s about the student athletes!!
Marc Stein on Ja Morant:
“The CBA says if there is a firearm on team premises [team plane], that’s an automatic 50-game suspension. That’s why the league is trying to ascertain where was the gun before the Instagram video.”
Charles Barkley blasts Kendrick Perkins and says he “crossed the line”
“I can promise you this, I’ve never said anything on television just to get clicks…We can talk about race as much as you want to as long as you’re going to be fair and honest. But to slander this man (Jokić) in this situation is just total BS.”

Uh oh, JJ Redick just went on ESPN and accused them of making up racism narratives. Good for Redick. He’s 100% right here. Kendrick Perkins said last week Jokic is getting the MVP because he’s white.
West Texas A&M AD Michael McBroom is chair of the @NCAADII Men’s Basketball Committee this year. He chairs regional committee and oversees selections to national tournament.
The South Central Region host selection needs to be investigated.
I can confirm, South Central Region committee unanimously picked Fort Lewis as No. 1 seed without debate. It was overturned at national level.
Conflict of interest by West Texas A&M AD Michael McBroom is undeniable. @NCAADII reeks of corruption here
@RMAC_SPORTS@FLCMBasketball
Time for my annual rant on the @NCAADII basketball tournament…
You miss an opportunity to possibly be the best small college tournament with the regionalization crap!
And don’t start with the money argument! The @NAIA makes it work and you can too! And 11pm for a selection show? What is wrong with you?
Just stupid.. and I blame him, his pops, and the company he chooses to keep. It’s sad, it’s lame.. so many dudes would kill to be where he is with the talent he has. Problem is being a “gangsta” is cool nowadays😒 JA cut it out dude
Ja Morant released a statement following the Grizzlies' announcement that he will be away from the team for at least the next two games.
The NBA is currently investigating an Instagram Live video in which he displayed a gun while at a nightclub early Saturday morning.
