Florida State head coach Leonard Hamilton announced Monday he's stepping down at the end of the season, ending a 23-year career in Tallahassee.

Hamilton, 76, will end his Florida State tenure as the winningest coach in school history and in the top five in wins in the history of the ACC. During his time with the Seminoles, Hamilton guided the program to the 2020 ACC regular-season title and eight NCAA tournament appearances. He also advanced to the second weekend of the NCAA tournament on four occasions.

Hamilton is being sued by six former players basketball players from the 2023-24 team, alleging he failed to make good on a promise to get each of them $250,000 in name, image and likeness compensation.

The plaintiffs -- Darin Green Jr., De'Ante Green, Cam'Ron Fletcher, Josh Nickelberry, Primo Spears and Jalen Warley -- filed suit in Leon County circuit court, and their attorney, Fort Lauderdale-based Darren Heitner, shared the 20-page complaint.

The former players allege Hamilton promised them the money from his "business partners." The lawsuit says they walked out of a practice in the past season over the missed payments and intended to boycott a Feb. 17 game against Duke. They ended up playing -- the Seminoles lost -- amid a guarantee from Hamilton that they would be paid but they never were, according to the suit.

Bruins fucking this up.  Gave up the lead but tied with 0:47 left.  Izzo out coaching Mick.  He’s out coached a lot of people, but Bilodeau has the advantage against MSU’s slower bigs and not finding a way to get him the ball inside.  If Mick wants to hang a banner, he has to figure out a way to counter Izzo, who has made great halftime adjustments.  BTW, Capital and Erv showing each other love pregame which was awesome.

Um. Why in the fuck would OU be 2 seed lines above Texas? Worse NET. Worse kenpom. Worse conference record.

I get that was before they got shellacked by Auburn but they were behind Texas in NET going into that game.

There’s a lot of nonsense in that bracket.

I'll take a crack and I'll probably miss a bunch.

  • Bama has a great record but a shit defense that makes me balk at ever putting them at a 1 seed
  • A&M as a 2 seed is a joke, 4 at the highest
  • KU is way too inconsistent for me to put them any higher than 5, ISU is also inconsistent but probably 2-3 seed quality or higher when playing at their best
  • Wisconsin at 4? Try 6
  • Ole Miss is at best a 7 seed
  • UCLA I would have said 9 seed before the last couple games but they're moving up
  • I think Dan Hurley is like, days away from a Mark Adams style meltdown so we'll see, not that it affects their seeding currently
  • OU is probably worth an 11 or 12 seed at best
  • It's questionable if Gonzaga is even a tournament team right now
  • Texas should be a 7-9 seed right now

I'm sure there's more but it's late

Yeah, I don't know about all that (the bracket above).  I think Texas is seeded higher than OU rn and aggy ain't no 2 seed. Probably a 3 or 4.
