Quick thoughts on debate about @UofStThomasMN being kicked out of @MIACathletics:: (1) Weaker schools should find their own solutions, like @MacalesterFB did in switching conferences, instead of penalizing excellence. (2) Tommies don't win all the time. #d3fb

Not enough to get me to root for @BaylorWBB, but this *is* 82 seconds of excellence.Kalani Brown is preparing for the national title game by lip syncing to Tina Turner's "Proud Mary" and it's AMAZING ? (via @BaylorWBB) https://t.co/grSMYtVFvM

This is interesting, even if I disagree with the premise. Of course, I’m the guy who teared up a bit when his college’s football team won its first outright title in 99 years a few seasons ago.This national title game is generationally unsexy. The brands are duds, there’s little star appeal and the pace will be brutal. Here’s the worst part — this is what the Final Four could well look like in the future. https://t.co/NH0ZL8Rkhf
