Good stuff. I'm hoping the girls can rebound after last years final rounds. I can't remember, but was it San Jose State that was in there with Alabama, USC, and Duke? I'm wondering why they're not up there, unless they lost a lot due to seniority.

I can't recall.

It appears to me one good showing at a tourney has a BIG impact on voting.

If you recall, we hired a guy for our M team who was the HC at Okie State. He was fired because it was the first season they had in a long time where they didn't make the 64. But, here they are back in the top 10.
