March Madness

[quote="gman" post=331453][quote="MJDinkins" post=331423]I like how this Auburn team is playing. They are kinda fun to watch. They're also hot, too! They've won 7 in a row, and what looks like to be 10 out of their 11 games. They're kicking Tennessee's ass (up by 22), as they're hitting 3's from everywhere.[/quote]

They will live and die by the 3 in the tournament but Cincy can make you look ugly.

I'm watching Houston for the first time and I'm not impressed.[/quote]

I’ve watched Houston a few times this year. They’re a very good team. They’re a tough squad. Very physical. Cincinnati is good also and this is the third time they’re playing this season so they know Houston well. But wouldn’t surprise me to see Houston in the elite eight. And they’re Coach is very good with a history of having good teams. Houston is also a second half team.

Michigan State is about to lose another player. Kyle Ahrens was pretty vocal lying on the court. They're bringing out the stretcher. I think he may have broken his ankle. That's tough.
 
Why doesn't the AAC lose their top coaches like we do? Makes no sense to me especially considering the Big East is way more prestigious and competitive with better programs. You would think Houston and Cincy's coaches would be poached.

My late father-in-law was a very reserved Congregational minister who only told one religious joke (all the others were scatological). He would ask "Why do Presbyterians make the best missionaries to cannibal tribes? The answer was "They won't eat them because they are so hard to clean."

Certainly Sampson is way hard to clean for many schools and there may be others.

Mick Cronin is a Cincinnati alum.
Kelvin Sampson has already been fired from multiple programs for cheating.
Greg Marshall has been unwilling to be be poached.

Did I miss anyone? I don't see Jay Wright or Ed Cooley or Kevin Willard being poached.

Chris Holtman had no loyalty to Butler because he came there as an assistant and a year later became the head coach. This was after 4 other assistant coach roles and a head coaching gig at Gardner Webb.

Chris Mack seemed like an Xavier lifer since he went there. However I believe it was mentioned his wife went to Louisville.

Did I miss anything here?
 
N. Dakota State Bisons 7-11 from three to start the game. Looks like they can all shoot the three.
