22.6: Top 16 Seeds

Hoopsville is once again home to the Top 16 Seeds reveal in conjunction with the D-III national committees. Get a preview of who could be hosting and how brackets would come together if the NCAA Tournaments started this weekend. Also hear exclusively from both nat'l committee chairs. Also on Thursday's edition of Hoopsville presented by D3hoops.com, hear exclusively from both DIII national committee chairs on how the NPI system has worked within their committees along with what they are already looking at in terms of bracketing opportunities and challenges. Which teams may look like they could host but may have to hit the road? And why the term "protected seeds" doesn't mean they are guaranteed to host. It was a very popular addition to the countdown to the Division III national tournaments and it's back, exclusively on Hoopsville. Also stay tuned after our conversation with the committee chairs for a look at conference races that could alter the Top 8 and Top 16 seeding even in the final ten days of the season. Plus, we look at some of the dark horse teams you should be watching closely for how they can alter the DIII bracket landscape. We hear from a few of our experts and put our toe into the water of who is a lock and who is in trouble of moving in and out of coveted seed placement. Guests include: - National Committee Chairs: - John Alesi, men's chair and Baruch men's coach - Bethany Dannelly, women's chair and Ohio Athletic Conference commissioner - Ryan Scott, D3hoops.com columnist - Pat Coleman, D3hoops.com Editor-in-Chief
