CUSA: #mtsu has clinched the regular season title and should Dance regardless of how they do in the CUSAT. Two wins over the SEC teams, Vandy and Ole Miss, might help their resume
MACT winner will get the only Dance ticket Akron won the Eastand Ball St and Western Michigan are tied atop the West.
MWC- Colorado St struggled to beat SDST last night and remain in a tie for first with Nevada. It appears the MWCT winner gets their only dance ticket.
SunBelt: UTA handled South Bama to keep a one game lead over Georgia St and Georgia Southern . Tough to see the SunBelt getting more than one entry into the Dance.

UCF has been improving under Coach Johnny Dawkins, but still stunned they beat #cincy

MWC: Big night for #prentissnixon as #coloradost survived Wyoming and is a half game up on idle #nevada.. #boisest lost to #fresno.MAC: #akron lost to cellar dweller Miami of Ohio but still has the East wrapped up. In the West #wmu and #ballst remain tied for first. #taylerpersons hit 6 3s, scored 29 in #BallSt win over Toledo while #wmu beat #niu
March 2
AAC- If #uconn was on the bumble, they've fallen way off . #CWhite (28 PTS, 4 REB, 2 AST) led #ecu to a win over the Huskies last night.
March 3
AAC : Cincy rocked third place Houston and #Smu cruised by Tulsa and the AAC may only get these two teams in the Dance. Cincy coach #Cronin spices up pre Dance talk "ticket sales, not wins or losses, are primarily behind how teams get seeded in the NCAA tournament."CUSA: screw #lunardi , #mtsu should be dancing w/o winning the #cusat.
SunBelt: #uta is riding high but has to win the conference tourney to Dance
March 4
MAC : Ball St and Western Michigan are tied for first in the West , but #Ballst had the tiebreaker to join #akron , #ohio , #buffalo with first round MACT byes.
March 5
CUSA- If the #herd played some D it could have been a different season.They scored 61 in the second half of a 106-104 win over Northtexas. #louisianatech finished strong pounding USM. It's going to be difficult for the CUSA to get dance tickets when bracketologists are going nine deep with Big 10 teams.

March 9
MWC
UTAH ST crushed SJ ST and faces Nevada today
AFU upset Wyoming and meeets Colorado St today.
SDST beat UNLV in OT and get Boise next. Can the Aztecs recover from a so-so season and win the MWCT?
New Mexico faces Fresno
SUNBELT
CCU , ULL , & Troy advance while ULM behind N. Coppola (15 PTS, 2 REB, 4 AST) upset ARK ST.
CUSA: UTSA, Rice, UAB, and Marshall advance. S. Browning (22 PTS, 5 REB, 5 AST) of the #herd. M. Evans (26 PTS, 3 REB, 4 AST) of Rice had big games.
March 10
MAC: Akrn cruised to victory, while Ballst, Kent St and Ohi won close ones.MWC: Aztecs on a dance missin upset Boise..Fresno, Coloradost and Nevada advance. Not sure if the MWC is getting a second team in the Dance.
CUSA: UTEP keeps up their late season solid play. #herd survive. #mtsu and #latech win easily.
AAC:Tulsa, UConn and ECU advance
March 11
AAC: UCF has had a solid late season run and crushed Memphis on its way matchup against #SMUM. Williams UCF(19 PTS, 2 REB, 1 AST) will need to duplicate this performance tonight. Olie's Huskies face Cincy. Can UCF r UConn steal a Dance ticket from a major conference?
CUSA: Special place for the #marshall #herd in the O5 Google+ community. J. Elmore (21 PTS, 1 REB, 4 AST) led the #herd in a huge win over La Tech. They'll face #mtsu, a winner over UTEP, in the championship game tonight.#mtsu should be Dancing regardless of tonight's outcome.
MAC: GoldenFlashes got a big night from J. Hall (22 PTS, 10 REB, 4 AST) in a narrow win over #ohio and face top dog Akron, a win over Ball St in the final,
MWC: M. Marshall 28 PTS, 2 REB, 5 AST led #Nevada's big second half run to defeat #fresnst and a matchup against #coloradost in the final tnght. Both teams deserve Dance tickets regardless of the outcome.
SunBelt: #uta, #troy ,and Georgia St advanced but the big surprise is how #texasst keeps moving forward. Nijal Pearson had 16 points, six rebounds, five assists and five steals in the Texas State win over Louisiana-Monroe. Errratic Bobcats may get their paws trimmed again one seed Texas-Arlington tonight.
March 12
AAC: Top two teams, SMU and Cincy, advance to the AACT final . The winner should be a four seed.CUSA: #mtsu saved the committee frm a tough choice.#herd made a nice run in the middle of the second half but the Blue Raiders were resilient.
MAC: Congrats to #kentst , the sixth seed in the MACT, for an impressive tourney run that ended with a win ver their nearby neighbors Akron.
MWC: #nevada roared back from a terrible first half to win the MWCT. Tough loss for#coloradost who may land in the NIT. Not much committee love for the MWC.
Sunbelt: Wow, I told you TXST was erratic but I didn't expect them to defeat 1 seed #uta by twenty one points. And #troy knocked off Georgia St.
March 13
TXST was a little sloppy in the final five minutes and couldn't vertake #troy in the Sunbelt final. Is ST Mary's (WCC) better than Louisiana Tech (CUSA) or Colorado St (MWC). I doubt it.
AAC-No respect for the AAC. #SMU get providence/usc winner. #cincy gets Wake/Kst winner
CUSA- Last year #mtsu knocked off Sparty in rd1. This year I think they 'll knock off another B10 team -Minnesota
MAC- don't see #kentst getting by #UCLA
MWC- #nevada will shock #iowast
SUNBELT:#troy gets Duke- no upset here
March 17
I've been touting #mtsu all season and they held off a late Gophers to defeat #minnesota in rd1.Upshaw and Williams were stellar Blue Raiders late in the game. What does it take for the Committee to give the #CUSA some respect and a second team at the Dance. I was wrong on Nevada who couldn't recover from a bad first half in their rd1 loss to Iowa St.Also, I was wrong on St Marys who won in rd1.
March 18
Awesome dunk by #chuckperson of #troy but #duke was too much for them. Stunned by the #smu loss to #usc and props to #cincy for moving forward. #kentst lost to #UCLA
March 19
#mtsu put up a good fight but lost to #butler. #cincy faces #ucla today
March 20
Cincy gone.#ucla shot 63% from the field in the second half
June 18, 2017
I didn't cover #cmu often this season, but #marcuskeene, their high scoring (30 ppg) 5'9 guard may get drafted late in round 2
july 26, 2017
sometimes I don't what these kids are thinking. #patrickGood, a 6-foot guard for #appst averaged 7.0 points, 2.3 rebounds, and 1.6 assists per game and shot 41% from treyland is transferring and will have to sit a year if he goes to a 1A school
