Six Men’s and seven Women’s Big 10 basketball teams are going to the NCAA Tournament following Selection Sunday. On the men’s side the Purdue Boilermakers earned a top seed and will play the winner of Montana State vs Grambling State. And the Boilermakers get to play close to home in Indianapolis. After looking at the brackets, we think the Nebraska Huskers and the Wisconsin Badgers have the best path to a deep run.
CAITLIN CLARK
On the ladies’ side, Caitlin Clark and the Iowa Hawkeyes have a brutal bracket in their region. Iowa basketball starts off vs the winner of Holy Cross vs UT-Martin in the NCAA Tournament.
Congratulations to Jake Diebler who earned the Ohio State Buckeyes head basketball coaching gig after winning 6 of 7 after taking over for fired Chris Holtmann mid-season.
BRING BEILEIN BACK?
And, would John Beilein return to Ann Arbor to coach the Michigan Wolverines following Juwan Howard’s firing on Friday? College basketball has changed a lot since Beilein left to go try coaching in the NBA. Plus Beilein is 71 years old. Is he up for the challenge? Will Michigan athletic director Warde Manuel entertain the idea of bringing Beilein back?
