Williams-Fluornoy fired by Auburn. Would be a good move for this program to try to get her back. It’s not working with Howard. This. 1000%.

Creighton just suspended Greg McDermott tonight from all team activities, including the season finale against Butler, after he made racially insensitive comments to his team after the lost at Xavier. Creighton's athletic director, Bruce Rasmussen, released a statement that indicates that additional sanctions are under consideration. Reportedly, McDermott has offered his resignation to the university.
It is shaping up as a very chaotic tournament this year...which would be a fitting coda to a chaotic regular season.

MRI on Collin Gillespie disclosed torn MCL in his left knee. His season is over.
Brutal loss for Villanova. Hard to see them (a) winning the Big East tournament, and (b) getting past the first weekend of the NCAA Tournament.

Pete Thamel a Syracuse grad. Enough said. I don't bother reading Thamel generally for that reason...but just curious, has he looked at Jim Boeheim and what's happening with the trajectory of the program at Eastern Lower Canada Community College recently? Maybe it's just my orange-jaundiced perspective, but I don't see that program poised for success in the coming seasons.

I watched the Creighton attempted comeback against Nova. With Gillespie out and Mitchell playing aggressive on ball defense, Nova could hardly get into their offense. They looked awful. I think they went 10 mins and only scored 2 points. On one hand we want them strong enough to beat PC (who looked listless against SJ last night), but also if they were to lose and we wound up in the 8/9 game, they certainly seem beatable. All in all I think the BE tournament is now wide open, and if I had to pick, I might lean towards Uconn right now (sigh). My thoughts, exactly. It will probably be an upset now if Villanova were to win the Big East Tournament; the Gillespie injury is, as Jay Wright put it delicately last night after game, "serious," and 'Nova looked lost without him on the court. UConn has the look of a champion right now with a healthy Bouknight.

It is the final full week of the regular season in college basketball, and conference tournament play begins in many non-Power 6 conferences; three such conferences (America East, Big South and Horizon) began tournament play this past week. Gonzaga completed its regular season in the same ranked position in which it began, #1; the ‘Zags finished the regular season at 24-0 after victories over Santa Clara (89-75) and Loyola Marymount (86-69), and earned a double-bye in the West Coast Conference tournament. Michigan and Baylor swapped spots in the Associated Press Top 25, with the Wolverines advancing one slot to #2 after victories over then-#9 ranked Iowa (79-57) and at Indiana (73-57), while the Bears fell one slot to #3 after defeating Iowa State (77-72) and losing for the first time this season at then-#17 ranked Kansas (71-58). Illinois moved up one slot to #4 after an 81-72 loss at unranked Michigan State, an 86-70 win over Nebraska, and a 74-69 win at then-#23 ranked Wisconsin. Iowa moved up four slots to #5, after the 79-57 loss at then-#3 ranked Michigan and a 73-57 win at then-#4 ranked Ohio State.
The Big East Conference has, once again, just two teams ranked in the AP Top 25. Villanova fell two slots to #10 after the Wildcats defeated St. John’s, 81-58, and lost at unranked Butler, 73-61. Creighton dropped one slot to #14 after the Bluejays defeated DePaul, 77-53, and lost at unranked Xavier, 77-69. Connecticut is the only other Big East Conference school receiving any votes in this week’s poll.
Arkansas made the biggest advance amongst ranked teams, moving up eight spots to #12 after the Razorbacks defeated then-#6 ranked Alabama, 81-66, and Louisiana State, 83-75. Oklahoma had the largest drop amongst ranked teams, falling nine slots to #16 after the Sooners lost at unranked Kansas State, 72-57, and to then-unranked Oklahoma State in overtime, 94-90.
Three schools dropped out of the AP Top 25 this week. Southern California, formerly #19, lost at then-unranked Colorado, 80-62, and at unranked Utah, 71-61; Missouri, formerly #24, lost against unranked Mississippi, 60-53, and had a scheduled game against Texas A&M postponed after the Aggies temporarily paused competition due to COVID-19; Tennessee, formerly #25, won at Vanderbilt, 70-58, and lost at unranked Auburn, 77-72. Replacing the Trojans, Tigers and Volunteers in the polls this week are Oklahoma State Purdue and Colorado. Oklahoma State is now ranked #17 after the Cowboys defeated then-#18 ranked Texas Tech, 74-69 in overtime, and then-#7 ranked Oklahoma, 94-90 in overtime; Purdue is now ranked #23 after the Boilermakers won at Nebraska, 75-58, and at Pennsylvania State, 73-52; Colorado is now ranked #24 after the Buffaloes defeated then-#19 ranked Southern California, 80-62, and California Los Angeles, 70-61.

American Athletic Conference: Southern Methodist, Temple (temporary pause ended March 4). Atlantic Sun Conference: Jacksonville (shut down for the season).

For the first time this season, there are no changes at all in the composition of the Associated Press Top 25; while there was much suffering amongst the bottom 20 in the rankings, no teams were dropped entirely from the polls. Gonzaga, Baylor, Michigan, Ohio State and Illinois all remained ranked at #1 through #5 respectively. The Bulldogs improved to 22-0 after victories over Saint Mary’s (87-65) and San Diego (106-69); the Bears remained 17-0 after game postponements against then-#13 ranked West Virginia and Oklahoma State due to having paused competition due to COVID-19; the Wolverines advanced to 16-1 after victories against Rutgers (71-64) and at #4 ranked Ohio State (92-87); the Buckeyes are now 18-5 after an 92-82 win at Pennsylvania State and the home court loss to #3 Michigan; the Illini improved to 16-5 after wins over Northwestern (73-66) and at Minnesota (94-63).
The Big East Conference still has just two ranked teams. Villanova moved up two slots to #8 with a 68-60 win against Connecticut, and Creighton advanced one slot to #13 without playing any games. Xavier is the only other Big East Conference team receiving any votes in this week’s poll.
Kansas was the biggest gainer amongst ranked teams, moving up six slots to #17 after the Jayhawks defeated Kansas State (59-41) and then-#15 ranked Texas Tech (67-61); Virginia dropped the furthest amongst ranked teams, falling eight slots to #15 after the Cavaliers lost road games at then-#16 ranked Florida State (81-60) and at unranked Duke (66-65).
The following conferences have programs that have currently been shut down, or paused temporarily, due to COVID-19: America East Conference: Maine (shut down for the season). American Athletic Conference: Southern Methodist, Temple. Atlantic 10 Conference: Fordham (temporary pause ended March 1). Atlantic Sun Conference: Jacksonville (shut down for the season). Big 12 Conference: Texas A&M. Big South Conference: Charleston Southern (shut down for the season), North Carolina Asheville (temporary pause ended March 1). Colonial Athletic Association: Hofstra (temporary pause ended February 24), Northeastern, Towson. Ivy League: Brown, Columbia, Cornell, Dartmouth, Harvard, Pennsylvania, Princeton, Yale (entire league is shut down for the season). Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference: Iona, Monmouth. Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference: Bethune-Cookman, Howard, Maryland Eastern Shore (all three programs are shut down for the season), Morgan State. Mountain West Conference: San José State. West Coast Conference: Portland (temporary pause ended February 27). Western Athletic Conference: Chicago State (shut down for the season).
Maryland Baltimore County has no games scheduled over the next eight days; the America East Conference begins its conference tournament next weekend, and the #1 seeded Retrievers have a double-bye into the semifinal round to be played March 6.
As previously noted, last minute modifications and cancellations may occur, and I will attempt to update this weekly missive whenever I learn of schedule changes; no warranties of accuracy, express or implied, are made.
All times listed are Eastern Standard Time. NOTE: UPDATED AS OF 8:24 AM ON MARCH 1, 2021
