Ex-DePaul players among 26 charged in cross-border NCAA-CBA game-fixing scheme

"Shaka Smart Blames DePaul's 'Worst Year Ever' for Big East March Madness Absence"

The absence of teams like St. John’s, Seton Hall, and Providence has sparked criticism of the selection process, with some coaches questioning the reliance on analytics and strength of schedule. The final four teams that made the cut were Boise State, Colorado, Virginia, and Colorado State.

"March Madness Snubs: Big East Schools' Decline and NIT Bracket 2024 Highlights"

Marquette coach Shaka Smart attributes the Big East's reduced presence in the NCAA Men’s Tournament to UConn's historic success and DePaul's dismal performance, with UConn securing the No. 1 seed and DePaul going winless in conference play. Despite some feeling that St. John’s, Seton Hall, and Providence were snubbed, the selection committee included Boise State, Colorado, Virginia, and Colorado State as the last four teams in, leaving Seton Hall as the second team out of the tournament. Providence head coach Kim English expressed frustration with the committee's decisions and criticized the emphasis on analytics in college basketball scheduling.

"DePaul Basketball Taps Former Ohio State Coach Chris Holtmann to Lead Program Turnaround"

DePaul has hired former Ohio State coach Chris Holtmann to lead their men's basketball program, signing him to a six-year deal. Holtmann, who was fired from Ohio State in February, brings a successful track record with previous NCAA Tournament appearances at both Ohio State and Butler. DePaul, which has not made the NCAA Tournament since 2004, is making a significant financial commitment to bring Holtmann on board, including a coaching pool of over $3 million and a substantial NIL fund. This move comes after DePaul's historically poor season, and an official announcement is expected soon.

Louisville's Struggles Continue with Loss to DePaul

Louisville's basketball team, led by coach Kenny Payne, suffered a disappointing 75-68 loss to DePaul, a team that had previously struggled this season. Payne's record as coach continues to be underwhelming, with an 0-13 record in road games and an 8-33 overall record. The team's lack of progress and failure to play cohesively is concerning, and Payne's emphasis on unity and playing for each other feels like the first step rather than the last. The program's instability and poor performance may lead to questions about Payne's future as coach.
