Do they cancel school in Iowa for this event or just stream it over the PA system during class?

Ames and Des Moines public schools are traditionally put of school the Friday before spring break which is always the first week of the NCAA tournament, so the Friday of the conference tournament is a day off. It's been this way all six years I've lived here.

Heh. I was half joking about that when I asked. Makes sense.

Roomates and I are all rooting for Okie Lite and Texas in the first round, also screw the Big 12 for having our game at 11:30 tomorrow morning. I have flipping class and will be watching on my laptop.

Self should be resting his players in a meaningless game.

That sure seems to be Self's MO. For how many times KU wins the regular season, their Big 12 tournament performances have been pretty meh.

This way they still have a solid case for a 1 Seed when they bow out of the meaningless Big XII tourney early to rest for the Big Dance. Self demonstrates his genius again.

If they lose in quarters or semis in KC, team like Duke could take that last 1 seed.

If it's a very minor grade 1 MCL injury, Doke probably won't be much under 100% by next Sat/Sun when they play in 2nd Rd. Really depends on how minor of a sprain this is.

In honor of the big 12 tournament my thoughts on big 12 teams as eating establishments.

1. Kansas = Joe's Kansas City

Best BBQ in town. Long lines to get your food, but it's usually worth it. Unfortunately, it doesn't always beat BBQ from other regions.

2. Texas Tech = Stroud's

The Red Raiders being really good at basketball feels like eating really good fried chicken in a barbecue town.

3. West Virginia = Garozzo's Ristorante

I imagine this is where Bob Huggins eats all of his meals.

4. Kansas State = Minsky's Pizza

Good pizza, but not good enough to be an iconic dining destination.

5. TCU = Fritz's

The Horned Frogs love the sound of a train horn. They would probably get a kick out of seeing their food delivered on mini-trains.

6. Baylor = Q39

All the ingredients are there, but it doesn't always live up to expectations.

7. Texas = Jack Stack

It's like normal BBQ, only fancier!

8. Oklahoma State = Arthur Bryant's

The team boycotted Joe's after it removed Oklahoma from its name.

9. Oklahoma = Gates

The staff yells "Can I help you?" when you enter the restaurant. Seems like a good place for Trae Young's teammates to visit before they play Oklahoma State.

10. Iowa State = Winstead's

Quick and convenient spot for the Cyclones to grab a bite before they head back to Ames late Wednesday night.

This is the greatest thing I've ever seen. It's so good in fact, I retract every bad thing I've said about Kansas Citians.

Man, sucks that ku is going to lose to OSU 3x this year.

Why is there some stupid Rick Pitino thing on my television set?

I made that post when it was just Pitino and the intend of the program had not been fully disclosed yet.

Yeah brother, I think it's 30-45 minutes between games for warm ups at tourney events. Take my $ Sprint Center tomorrow apparently.
