With just over a month until Selection Sunday, many teams across the landscape of college basketball are beginning to show their true colors, for better or for worse. Some early conference pace-setters have returned back to the pack, while a number of apparent-disappointments have readjusted and begun to find their way. And others yet just keep on winning. Let’s pass out a few awards to those who took care of business last week.

O26 Team of the Week

Wichita State. The Shockers have been written about and discussed at length over the past several days, so there’s no need to overanalyze the implications of last week’s big road [...]]]> http://rushthecourt.net/2014/02/12/o26-weekly-awards-wichita-state-davon-usher-gary-waters-yale/feed/ 0 A Brief Conference Primer Interlude… http://rushthecourt.net/2008/10/30/a-brief-conference-primer-interlude/ http://rushthecourt.net/2008/10/30/a-brief-conference-primer-interlude/#respond Thu, 30 Oct 2008 22:43:31 +0000 http://rushthecourt.net/?p=1965

We’ve made it through eighteen of our thirty-one season conference primers so far, and our correspondents continue to top each other with their breadth of knowledge and coverage of the one-bid leagues.  So we want to thank them and once again highlight their fantastic work over the past few weeks by anchoring their primers in one post here, so that you (and we) can easily access them.  Going forward, we’ll primarily be dealing with the traditional multiple-bid conferences or conferences that should expect to see multiple bids this season.  Conference #13 will go up tonight, and we’ll be counting down to tipoff [...]]]> http://rushthecourt.net/2008/10/30/a-brief-conference-primer-interlude/feed/ 0 Conference Primers: Single Bid Conference Recap http://rushthecourt.net/2007/11/07/conference-primers-single-bid-conference-recap/ http://rushthecourt.net/2007/11/07/conference-primers-single-bid-conference-recap/#respond Wed, 07 Nov 2007 21:20:14 +0000 http://rushthecourt.net/2007/11/07/conference-primers-single-bid-conference-recap/

So we figure we’ll be done with these conference primers by Christmas 2008 Thanksgiving, which is about the time most people start keeping an eye on college hoops anyway.  In the meantime, we thought we’d take a moment to recap the seventeen single bid conferences we’ve already reviewed.  Keep in mind, our definition of a single bid league is a conference that does not regularly compete for multiple NCAA bids (even if they occasionally get multiple bids).
