New Mexico State : The Aggies had a top-40 score in the NCAA's NET metric and were a possession away from knocking off Kansas on the road in non-conference action. Chris Jans, the two-time WAC coach of the year, comes from a coaching tree of former Cinderella coaches. He served under Loyola-Chicago coach Porter Moser's staff at Illinois State and worked as Gregg Marshall's top assistant during the Shockers' Final Four run in 2013 and their near-undefeated season in 2014.
Belmont : The Bruins share the ball better than anyone in the country, ranking first with 20 assists per game, with freshman Grayson Murphy leading the way with 6.6 assists a game. This style gives Belmont a potent offense, trailing only Gonzaga in points scored per game and ranking top-20 in KenPom's offensive efficiency. Dylan Windler is a 6-8 guard who can stretch the floor by shooting 54 percent from the floor and 43 percent from beyond the arc.
