This may be the strangest Final 4 teams that I can remember. But that's what makes it great!

Agree, very weird: FAU @ SDSU;
Miami @ UCONN.
A surreal Final Four.
UCONN the sole non-surprise of the group.

And graduates this year clean, has a year of eligibility, is from New Jersey, and is "only" making $100,000 in NIL I believe. And rated as a second rounder, whatever amount they stand to make. Just saying 😁

Isn’t Wong the guy that demanded more NIL money when it was revealed the Miami booster was offering 400,000 per to entice Nigel Pack to transfer in?

I assume they either paid him more or told him to shut up or there'd be less/slash none, but it did seem to get resolved fairly quickly.
 
These grad transfers who can play 1 year I can't even imagine the Nil money it's going to cost for the top their kids especially since it's a 1 year commitment. It's more profitable to stay in college an extra year

You put a body on the guy to box out you don’t back up 10 feet while the guy is in the air and take his legs out.

Part of boxing out is driving the guy back by backing into a guy. If he jumps over your back, we’ll that’s “over that back”. At least I thought. So if a guy starts boxing me out all I have to do it jump up and land on him?

Can’t just back up indiscriminately. The other guy is entitled to hold the position he has established you can’t just root him out. You nudge him a bit subtly.

If you don’t back up, that guy is running right through him. If Miami player doesn’t jump, Texas player doesn’t keep pushing him backwards. The only reason he keeps pushing him back is because he jumped over his back. Which again, I thought was the definition of the foul titled “over the back”. IMO Texas player had perfect position against the bigger player and did exactly how he should have. Agree to disagree.

That was for sure a huge call and could have gone either way. I needed Texas to win but cant blame it on that call.
They gave it away long before that imho.
