I'm watching the Southland Conference final and pulling for Stephen F Austin. Coached by Kyle Keller who is part of the Eddie Sutton Okie coaching tree. He was on the KU staff from 08-11. Don't remember his exact job title back then. Was on Billy Kennedy's staff until he got the SFA job.
@kjayhawks What channel is WKU on?
WKU came so close, had 2 chances to take the lead late and lost by the slimmest of margins 67-66.
@kjayhawks At least Marshall is a cool story. No one thought the D'antoni hire would work.
Looks like SELA might pull away from SFA.
Game is tied. Gonna be a wild finish.
SFA is gritty. Got a big steal. One guy slapped the ball to a team mate off a free throw miss to get a lay-up.
@BShark looks like SFA is gonna pull it off, so many good games this time of year. The little leagues sometimes give the wildest finishes, making the tournament is such a big deal and thats part of the reason you see upsets. All the pressure is off them and they are playing with house money from there on.
Okie ball to the NCAAT!
See that Texas Southern got in today, Self is always smart in scheduling a few teams that are likely to make the dance as a 16 or 15.

Self is the absolute master of this. I'd say I'm shocked Bruce hasn't figured it out but....Bruce.....
@kjayhawks South Dakota State already won their league twice too. Toledo won their half of the MAC and is in their conference championship game which is tomorrow.
Correction: Buffalo won the Mac title game today.
WKU lost today. Dwight Coleby had only 4 points but 10 rebounds in 20 minutes on the court. Are the Hilltoppers in the NCAAT, bubble team or NIT?
NIT
Calipari is about to lose his mind.
