      A lot of blame going McDermott's way... I'm guessing this is partially because his words

          Duke bows out of the ACC Tourney due to Covid, which kills their NCAA hopes. This helps Drake’s at large chances, but they need more.

            Boise loses to Nevada.

            Drake couldn't have drawn this up better. Jeebus...

              Sackey also transferring from Valpo. A lot of quality players leaving the Valley.

                Not terrible worried. Should allow UNI/Loyola/Missouri State/Drake to feast on the bottom half next year and make a run at a bunch of bids

                  Have we heard anything on who is returning for MSU/D+/Loyola?

                    Allegedly everyone is coming back at Drake. Prim has said he's coming back. Loyola is a big mystery but earlier Krutwig and Williamson were leaving not sure if they've reconsidered.

                      Virginia player tests positive, so Virginia is out of the Acc tournament. Their status for the ncaa tournament is in question now, even though they are projected to be a 4 seed. According to the article

                      ”Tier 1 members of a program -- players, coaches and other members of the traveling party -- must have seven straight negative COVID-19 tests before arriving in Indianapolis for the NCAA Tournament.”

                      I thought I read that the ncaa may have backup teams (nit teams) that may fill spots.

                        Probably a stupid question, but I wonder if this is 7 daily tests, or would a morning and evening test count as two? Aren't teams getting tested twice a day during conference tournaments?

                          I would think both Williamson and Krutwig could make some good money in Europe. I’d be surprised if either returned. If everyone is back for Drake, Missouri St and UNI, the upper half of the MVC could be a real war. That assumes we get off to a good start and don’t have a “burn in” period where players are “getting used to the schemes”.

                            This is copied from the story about Kansas withdrawing from the big 12 tourney

                            “Per NCAA protocols, playing in the Big Dance requires seven consecutive days of negative test results among Tier 1 personnel before arrival in Indianapolis, meaning testing has already begun.”

                            The NCAA has announced their contingency plans. UNI may still have a chance

                              Well, we're not the only ones going out on a false positive. What a gut punch...

                              Top-seeded NC A&T was knocked out of the MEAC tourney due to a positive COVID test. The staff member who tested positive has tested negative three times since returning home, source told @stadium.
                              Brutal.

                                There's some bad news from the women's tournament. Evidently Bradley had some positive Covid tests. The conference still wanted the game to be played but MSU didn't want to risk any contact with Bradley because it could impact them in the NCAA tournament. Now they are talking about MSU forfeiting the game.
