Due to professional, family, and HS BKB commitments during the #d3hoops season, it's time for me to end the D3bubble project. It has been a joy to meet coaches & others from all over! I look forward to the great content from @d3datacast, etc. and will still be around the game.

Here's a candidate for #d3hoops photo of the year, from the conclusion of last Saturday's @WoosterSports game against Wabash. If you look carefully, there is a D3 legend in the crowd. Photo credit to longtime Wooster photographer Matt Dilyard.

Just FYI on such a big day, I will be away from the computer all day. I am headed to Kent State for the high school wheelchair basketball state championship game, where my younger son is playing for #1 Wooster HS and I will be on the broadcast crew. #notd3hoops

Oberlin (5-0) at #16 Wooster (4-0), 7:00 Coach Senthil's rising Oberlin program could begin rewriting Yeomen #d3hoops history: - Win at Wooster (last time 1988) - Win at Witt (never) - NCAC winning record (never) - Conf. title (1976 OAC) - NCAA berth (1976) - NCAA win (never)

Tonight, #2 Marietta will play for its first-ever D3 final four berth, facing #4 Christopher Newport in what looks like an epic contest. #d3hoops

Wabash's win over Wooster today was their 4th in a row against the Scots. It is the first time this century that any conference foe has beaten Wooster four consecutive times. #d3hoops

It's the 2022-23 debut of the men's #d3hoops computer consensus top 25 combining numbers from @masseyratings, @FFTMAG (KenPom-style), and me. Teams that we like but are currently unranked by the voters include @SJU_Basketball and a trio of @odacathletics schools.

Cry me a river. The minimum flight distance in #d3hoops is 500 miles and it was 600 miles last year.

NCAA increased it from 350 to 400 miles in which it will pay for a school to charter flight to site. Charleston is 380 miles from Orlando, so NCAA will only cover cost of a bus. Told Charleston is going to pay for charter on its own on way down for team and families and bus back.

Just read a tweet from a D1 head coach raving about the terrific atmosphere with 3800 fans at his team's game last night. Meanwhile, the Calvin/Hope contest also had 3000+. We have something special in D3, especially at some venues that routinely draw well.

Mission accomplished! This kid isn't old enough to earn a varsity letter but he has two state champion patches to put on his jacket.
