Good news early from the tourney: 

#11 seed Old Dominion just beat #6 seed Notre Dame 51-50.
#15 seed Robert Morris is beating #2 Villanova with 7 minutes left.

SHSU and North Texas start play soon.

SHSU up by one over Baylor at the half, 31-30.

Sam is good I figured this Would be a good game

[Guest coachacola]

Villanova beat Robert Morris in OT.  Although Robert Morris lost, it looks like a good day for the underdogs so far.

Sam might actually pull this off...  What a move by Mitchell with the behind-the-back fake...

Murray State dumps Vanderbilt at the buzzer!

sams depth caught up to them.looks like they ran out of gas.good effort though.

Awesome game by Sam Houston. Good showing for the Southland

[Guest coachacola]

A win by SHSU would have been nice for the SLC in terms of exposure and money.  They were within a minute of winning that game.  Also, a win probably would have guaranteed Bob Marlin a better coaching job, but by hanging tough with Baylor he may still get a better job.

Good thing ole Terror decided not to talk trash with me. Great fight SHSU put up.
I think Marlin is gone. Maybe to ULL.

Marlin is not in the mix at ULL. Heard from a ULL source today that he pulled out of the running last week...

A few weeks ao I thought Marlin would be he Head Cougar, but with Penders's crew making the late season push into the NCAA I don't think he will be gone.

Maybe SMU after 4 failed years with Doherty would look to Marlin? Other than that it wont happen this year.

Seton Hall, UCF, IOWA, Auburn, Boise, St Johns, Toledo, ULL, Kent, and ECU would all be tempting jobs for a successful coah wanting to move up.  Not saying the Sam job is bad, just saying.

All those jobs would probably pay quite a bit more than what he's making now.  I think he's still at SHSU after 10+ years because this was only the 2nd time he's taken them to the big dance.  It should be interesting to see if he actually leaves SHSU.

Prior to UNT's Johnny Jones' success over the past 4-5 years, North Texas took a hard look at Marlin. Many wanted him in Denton.  Now with four 20 win seasons in four years and two trips to the NCAA tourney in the same period, we hope to hang on to JJ.
