Correction on the Oregon Head Coach. I mistakenly stated that it was Thad Matta when I meant to say Dana Altman, my apologies. Also Archie Miller has been long gone from Dayton and is now the Head Coach of the Rhode Island Rams. The current head coach for Dayton is Anthony Grant. Thad Matta is the head coach for the Butler Bulldogs now but was with Ohio State at one point.

Gonzaga is a religious school 34:05

Didn't realize that, interesting but I was referring to fringe Basketball schools. Gonzaga is a perennial power house school (even though they have no Championships in basketball yet but their expectations are typically on the same level as your typical blue bloods and they've been to the Championship game twice). Xavier is somewhere in between but closer to being a Gonzaga than a fringe school (even though they have not appeared in a Final Four yet, we know they're more consistent than Loyal Chicago is in the long term as a program) and St. Mary's is a bit below Xavier due to not having as much success in the tournament. St. John's would be in the fringe category even though they're in the Big East but not to the same level that St. Peter's is or Loyola Chicago is (in terms of basketball talent and national recognition, which they typically have more of since they play nationally televised games in the regular season when they play big name teams like UConn and Creighton).
