8-1

I will be attending the Cats versus Blue Demons game this weekend with about 500 others. My dad still remembers the Demon glory years and wanted to go.

I think Northwestern got it right with the hire of Collins. I cannot imagine how quickly he leaves if they make an NCAA tournament

Does he wait for the Duke job?

I think all those ex assistants are trying to position themselves to get it. My guy tells me Wojo was the anointed one but who knows. It seems like most of those guys underwhelm in their first try and then exceed expectations at the second job. Amaker and Dawkins have both been doing nice jobs.

they're going to have to beat a ranked team or two to get in right?

Yes. They will have to do that anyway to be.500 or better in the conference. If they get are .500 in conference with a couple of signature wins and 1-2 wins in the conference tournament, they should be good. Otherwise they will be one of those teams in the NIT that look good but get trounced by a smaller name school with an objectively better record.

I wouldn't worry about Duke. He will be low on the list there. Duke may be the best job opening in the last few decades once Coach K retires.

Six wins gets them to 9-9 and over 20 for the season. That should be enough.

NIT had 17 slots prefilled by teams who won conference but failed to win conference tourney.
