Markelle Fultz is projected by nbadraft.net to go number one. The team is 9-16. What's this say about the NCAA when both he and Simmons can't even bring their team to the big dance?

It has way more to do with the coach than anything regarding the NCAA. It is not the 1st, or even 2nd time he has wasted talent.

damn, I knew Washington was bad, but didn't realize they were that bad:

Here are the 9 teams they beat:
Cal State-Fullerton (11-10)
Northern Arizona (7-19)
Long Beach State (11-16)
Western Kentucky (12-13)
Western Michigan (10-15)
Cal Poly (8-17)
Seattle (12-12)
Oregon State (4-22)
Colorado (15-11)

They haven't beaten one team that will make the NCAAT.

Yep. Fultz and Porter on the court at the same time in the Pac-12 could be solid. Unfortunately, Romar won't get taht

Some of those wont even qualify for conf tournament.


Fwiw simmons wasn't the only tiger to make an nba roster.

Exactly, add Blakeney to that list and Sampson will have an outside shot too. Also, Victor was a solid player as well.

Roman ain't a bad coach how was he supposed to know Chris and Murray would be first round picks. Neither were top 30 players in their class, and fultz was a 5 star but was not a top 5 player


He keeps getting talenr, that are better than expected and bolting.

This team with Chris and Murray are a top 10 squad
