The Monday Mailbag brought amazing questions this week.

I was asked about the NCAA Tournaments, what’s next for ex-Oregon State coach Wayne Tinkle, the Oregon Ducks’ non-conference football scheduling strategy, travel traditions, Geno Auriemma’s outburst, Tommy Lloyd’s contract, and more.

Why is the women’s basketball smaller?

Why is Gill Coliseum so blasted hot?

Is the new Trail Blazers’ owner Tom Dundon fake rich?

Will the Pac-12 football champion make the College Football Playoff?

Thanks to all who submitted questions.
