2019-20 College Basketball – All-Name Team

College Basketball 2019-20 All-Name Team Boo BuieMany names on last year’s College Basketball All-Name Team were lost to graduation and the NBA. There’s always some one-and-done players, but we lost some all-timers like Tacko Fall and Bol Bol. This is more like a rebuilding year, but there are a handful of great new names that head up this year’s All-Name Team.

We picked through every Division-I college basketball roster and a few smaller schools for our list. This year’s class is solid and right up there with last year’s All-Name Team.

My name is Bobby Roberts, so I am often jealous of people with unique names. The most unique thing about my name is that I was not born ‘Robert Roberts’, Bobby is my given name. I don’t know too many grown men named Bobby.

This list consists of names that we wished he had and ones we find humorous. Enjoy!

2016 March Madness: #11 Vanderbilt vs #11 Wichita State

fred-vanvleet-wichita-state-shockers-vanderbilt-commodores-2016-ncaa-tournamentWe are here to help you fill out your brackets and finally beat your cubicle neighbor in your office pool this year.

The SEC had a down year this season. Kentucky was expected to run away with the conference, but they faced some obstacles along the way. If LSU would have materialized as a good team, maybe the conference would have received more at-large bids.

The Missouri Valley Conference is one of the best mid-major conferences. They’ve historically had pretty good success in the NCAA Tournament as well. Wichita State doesn’t come into the tournament as hot as the last two years, but don’t overlook them.

2015 March Madness: #7 Wichita State vs #10 Indiana

sad tom crean 2015 ncaa tournament march madness bubble teams indiana hoosiersThis game pits Wichita State, who was last year’s dark horse title contender, and Indiana, who many believe shouldn’t have received an at-large bid from the NCAA Selection Committee.

The Wichita State Shockers are one of the representatives of the Missouri Valley Conference. They won the regular season, but were upset by Illinois State in the conference tournament final.

Indiana is limping into the NCAA Tournament. They have some really nice individual players, but head coach Tom Crean has had trouble getting them to play together as a team. The Hoosiers haven’t looked ‘right’ since mid-January.

Will this be the last game Tom Crean coaches for the Hoosiers?
