Hoops Post-Season Insights…

+ Pac-12 Senior Assoc. Commissioner for Sport Management & Championships Peterson was this year’s Women’s Tourney committee chair. On Columbia & Kansas not making the tourney: “Unfortunately, them losing in the first round of their tournament is what kept them out of the field. They had a great season. They were playing very well in the beginning of the season. They kind of fell off a little towards the end of the season and how they were playing. But specifically, it may have been losing that first round of their conference tournament. [...] The way that Kansas lost in the first round of their tournament was the differentiator between Kansas and West Virginia. Then like we said before, with the other ones, it's always a thin piece of paper that you can slide through them, but that was really what it was. It was how they're playing right now.” More: “As far as how NET is derived, I think it's about efficiency. Probably one of the challenges the coaches are having is to schedule toward the NET, but you have to be efficient in the games that you play, and that's how you see what's happening with the NET. I don't think that I can get the NET changed, and I don't know that we need it changed.” (link)

+ Bradley AD Reynolds was the Men’s Tourney committee chair. On Oklahoma State’s omission: “When you look at their resume, they had 18 opportunities in the Quad 1 and they won only six games. They had opportunities in the non-conference schedule to win some games to enhance their resume and they fell a little short.” (link)

Former Southland Commissioner/2022 MBB Selection Committee Chair Burnett talks to Yahoo’s Eisenberg about whether conference championship games played on Selection Sunday factor into NCAA Tournament seeding. While insisting that “Sunday matters,” Burnett goes on to say there are “years when you’re crunched for time and you’ve got to move. You can’t have a few more hours of discussion on a single conference tournament title game. You’ve got to get the bracket ready by the broadcast deadline. So I think if anyone has an absolute thought that Sunday’s games do or don’t matter one way or the other, I would tell you it’s somewhere in between. … The reality is that it would help the committee if every tournament was done early and you could have a complete discussion of each team’s full body of work. But obviously, television wants programming on that Sunday, so the committee does the best job it can.” (link)

WNBA stars Bird and Taurasi will reprise their WBB Final Four MegaCast stream, the popular Bird and Taurasi Show, Front Office Sports’ Christovich reports. Sponsored by AT&T, the show will broadcast live from American Airlines Center during the semifinals and national championship. VP of Disney Advertising Sports Brand Solutions Palmieri: “That expanded coverage — we reserve that type of treatment around our biggest events. We’re really trying to create parity across how we cover big events.” (link)

AAC Commissioner Aresco with On3’s Prisbell as the Pac-12 reportedly considers whether to expand, “We’re all waiting for the shoe to drop; it will be nice just to get this over with. … This is irritating because we’d gotten to the point where a lot of this had ended, and now we’ve got to start up again. We don’t know what’s going to happen with SMU, or even other schools, depending on what happens with the Pac-12. What happens to the Pac-12? We don’t know whether they’re going to implode, or they’re going to be fine and add people. I just hope it gets done in the next month or so and we can move on.” (link)

Ivy League Executive Director Harris tells the Philadelphia Inquirer’s Tannenwald the league hasn’t discussed bringing the hoops championships back to The Palestra, though she says the rotation is subject to change after next year. “It’s an evaluation. We have continually been evaluating the tournament and assessing how it’s going, and what the athletic directors are interested [in]. [...] Taking into account construction and other improvements that are going on at our schools is a relevant piece that when we set the initial schedule was not a factor. … I think all of our schools could host, and have facilities that could host our tournament. So the question is, what’s best for the student-athletes’ experience, what’s best for the tournament, and we have to keep evaluating. Every year we learn more, and we have to keep evaluating and be flexible — that’s how we always operate.” (link)

Hardwood Decisions…

+ Newly named McNeese State MBB HC Wade’s contract is four five years, per ESPN’s Thamel. (link); Cowboys AD Schroyer: "This is a completely different job than it was three years ago. McNeese Basketball is one of the best jobs in the nation in regards to one-bid leagues. We are funded at the top of the league, have the best facility, a passionate fan base and many other built-in advantages. I will not make excuses for why we can't win and win big. Quite frankly, there is no excuse. The days of us celebrating making conference tournaments or accepting mediocrity in all of our sports, let alone in basketball, are over." (link)

+ Washington will retain MBB HC Hopkins for a seventh season. (link)

+ Alabama MBB HC Oats picks up $100K in bonuses for securing the SEC Tourney title and earning an NCAA berth ($50K for each).

Sun Belt Commissioner Gill sits down with AthleticDirectorU’s Garcia Cichosz to reflect on leadership lessons he’s learned from nearly three decades in college athletics, the league’s position on issues such as gender equity, championship access and DEI, and the next big conversation the industry needs to have. Gilll: “We have some real existential threats on the legal and antitrust side that we need to solve and so we need to continue talking about that. I do think trying to get us back to our roots, though, as it relates to education, is really important. I think the value of a degree is so critical and so important. I think that really is the most important part of the experience that I had. I’m not sure there was a cash value that I was capable of making that would’ve been more important than that. Now, some people, their stardom is a little different than mine, so maybe they could. But I think more people are closer to my talent level than those stars.” Lots more in the full interview. (link)

Federal regulators have approved plans to backstop depositors and financial institutions associated with Silicon Valley Bank, per CNBC’s Fox, who reports the Federal Reserve “stepped in with a separate facility that will provide loans up to one year for institutions affected by the bank failures.” The Fed says this “action will bolster the capacity of the banking system to safeguard deposits and ensure the ongoing provision of money and credit to the economy. The Federal Reserve is prepared to address any liquidity pressures that may arise.” The Treasury Department is providing up to $25 billion from its Exchange Stabilization Fund as a backstop for any potential losses from the funding program.

CBS headliner Dodd gets more from AAC Commissioner Aresco, who calls NIL, “Now It’s Legal.” On conference realignment: “This is a trend. It's not going to stop. There's going to be more consolidation.” Aresco also doesn’t believe the American got enough credit for its return-to-play protocol during COVID, per Dodd, “Mentions Big Ten and issues with myocarditis.” (link)

SEC Commissioner Sankey points to the league’s spring meetings in Destin as the longest timeline before future football scheduling will be decided upon. Sankey also disclaims that the decision could be made much sooner. “One of the opportunities here is to play everybody every other year and one or three teams every year. That’s a much tighter strength of schedule balance than what we’ve experienced in divisions. [...] We know we can narrow the competitive disparity, and I think that’s an important part that gets lost in the conversation. Now, will things stay as some people think they are? We’ll see.” (link)

“Deion Sanders, he’s a microphone. Good, bad or indifferent, no matter how you feel about it, that’s part of who he is, so he amplifies. I think by having him here, he can bring a lot of awareness and attention to things that we’ve done historically, to continue to kind of build on the momentum and the success that we want to have in the future.” That’s Colorado Assoc. AD for Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Baker on the Buffs new FB HC and the impact he could have on CU’s DEI efforts. Further, Baker continues, “He can attract, I think, a player, a fan, a person, a demographic, etc., that historically we’ve had a little bit of, but not as much. And I think what will end up happening with that is if he continues to recruit at the level that they have so far and brings in individuals who come from different backgrounds than what we have here, it’s only going to add to the flavor that we already have.” (link)

Sportico’s Novy Williams with a quick Twitter thread on the impact of Silicon Valley Bank’s demise on the sports world: “There are obviously a lot of sports-related startups, and I would imagine a number of them had money and loans with @SVB_Financial. Some likely got money out late this week, others were certainly not as lucky. [...] The vast majority of SVB's 40,000+ global clients are companies, not individuals. And from what I'm told, team and league banking follows a different structure. That said, many team owners are also investors/backers of those smaller startups mentioned above. That's where the SVB collapse hits them. Companies affected will be looking for backers to help float them as the SVB process plays out. There will be a *lot* more coming and clarified in the coming days/weeks. What about non-sports startups that have suites at their local @NBA arena? Or are sponsors of the nearby @MLB franchise? What other financial dominos will fall? We'll see.” (link)

Kentucky Kernel Photo Director Weaver claims that Arkansas MBB Director of Internal Operations Hall grabbed Weaver’s phone and threw it to the ground while Weaver was recording the Razorbacks coaching staff exiting the floor after the SEC Tournament loss to Texas A&M. Arkansas AD Yurachek: “I have visited with Riley Hall, a member of our men's basketball support staff, and others who personally observed an interaction between Mr. Hall and a reporter following our game Friday night at the SEC Men's Basketball Tournament. During our conversation, Mr. Hall expressed his regret that while leaving the floor his engagement inadvertently resulted in knocking down the reporter's cell phone from his hand.” Link includes video of the incident.

Two fans wearing crimson shirts with “GOATS” and the Alabama A logo as the “A” on the front and “Killin’ our way through the SEC in ‘23” on the back, caused quite a stir at the SEC Tournament yesterday. SEC Assoc. Commissioner for Communications Vincent told AL.com that the fans would not be allowed inside Bridgestone Arena with the shirts on Sunday and that if the fans put them on at any point inside the arena, they would be asked to leave. The SEC fan ticket policy states that tickets are revocable if “user is disruptive, endangers others or uses vulgar, threatening or demeaning language.” (link, link)

“The Associated Press Sports Editors, U.S. Basketball Writers Association and Association for Women in Sports Media object to Big 12 Conference commissioner Brett Yormark’s response to our previous outreach regarding the abandonment of industry-standard media-seating practices at the conference men’s basketball tournament in Kansas City. Reporters from print and digital organizations have been consigned to a hockey press box at the very top of the arena, where a television monitor is the best way to see basketball games. In addition, there is limited elevator service, which makes it impossible for media to reach postgame availabilities or other essential backstage areas in a timely manner. … There is no attempt to deny the evolving economics of college athletics and the necessity of maximizing revenue in prime seating locations, but as the APSE and USBWA have previously noted, other conferences and the NCAA have pursued this while accommodating the basic needs of media members.” More from the media outlets.

The home plate umpire for Friday’s Mississippi Valley State vs. New Orleans baseball game was suspended indefinitely on Saturday for a call he made in the top of the ninth with two outs. UNO was up 7-3 when Delta Devils leadoff man Mims came to the plate. Per Larry Brown Sports: “Mims took issue with a strike call on a 1-1 breaking ball that he thought was low in the zone. Mims began hopping around in anger and then pointed with his bat to where he thought the ball was. Apparently (the umpire) Drummer didn’t appreciate being shown up, because he rang up Mims on a breaking ball low away that missed the strike zone by about a foot.” The Southland said in a statement that it expects its officials to display “good sporting conduct” adding that Drummer’s “conduct and actions were deemed detrimental to the Conference and in violation of Section 3 Character and Conduct of the CCA Mechanics Manual for Baseball.” (link)
