College Basketball 2026-27 Season Thread

I don't think it ruins the tournament, but none of those teams bring anything worthwhile to it either. It just waters down the criteria a little bit more, making the regular season slightly less meaningful.

I don’t think it will make a huge impact. 8 play-in games instead of 4.

What are the issues with Stokes?

School suspensions, on-court attitude, and fighting among others.

What are the issues with Stokes?

Everything non-basketball related. Trainwreck potential at Kansas is also high

Good player though and competitive. Provides a lot of the talent that roster was lacking
