Congrats to the Big 12 which will finish as the highest-rated conference in my system for the sixth consecutive season.

Cannot believe we’ve FINALLY gotten another Big 12 team in the NC game!
This will only help KU. The Hawks need a strong league rival.

Yep, yep, yep!
All the talk of B12 being a top hoops conference means little when there is only 1 team that’s made the NC and only 1 NCAAT title in its admittedly relatively short history.
Come on, Texas Tech! Represent!

And with Texas winning the NIT, maybe the Big 12 can get two end of season champs?! Great for the conference!

I like Tony Bennett (both the coach and the singer, actually ), and if HCBS were to leave anytime soon Bennett is probably the guy I would want to replace him. Class act from all accounts, and an all around excellent coach.

Brad Stevens and Tony Bennett would be my top 2. In no particular order.

As I was saying... the Big 12 has the support of the computer stats. Having another team win it all would be major cred for the Big 12 being the best hoops conference in D1 beyond just “the numbers”.
