He’s not dating them…

The oldest guy I can remember is Yvon Joseph from Georgia Tech. IIRC he was 27 (!)

Is Alabama a basketball school now?

Good riddance to N Carolina and the over rated ACC.

With the exclusion of the Johnnies and the Hall, the whole tournament is BOGUS anyway.

Never a bad day when UNC loses

So much for momentum heading into the tournament.

Oats reminds me of Kevin Costner.

and the over rated ACC.

Alternate reality?

Haven’t commented on the games or the team though.

So down goes Arizona, UNC and Iowa St, which opens up a much easier path to the final for UConn. Starting to feel like last year where they cruised to the final without facing top ranked teams.

Illinois with Terrance Shannon ain't going down easy.

Alternate reality?

Not at all…….

ACC…… 5 teams in Dance

Big East……3 teams in Dance. EQUALS….

OVER RATED ACC….. simple concept.

Arizona lost 9 games, NC and Iowa State 8 each; rankings are largely name recognition popularity polls. UConn could lose, no question, but there is them and everyone else. Every team can only play who is in front of them.

Imagine the size of hurley's ego if he wins a second national championship. Please god, don't let that happen.

Congrats bamafan on your guys big win last night. I was rooting for the Tar Heels, but it was a helluva game. Have to confess I fell asleep and missed the last few minutes though; can't take those 10 pm starts anymore lol.

I want a player like Grant Nelson.

RP will have to go to both Dakotas, Idaho , Iowa, Montana , etc. to get the Nelsons , Schierman , Kalkenbrenner , etc .

Nelson and Schierman were mid Major players that can play at any level . Kalkenbrenner is just your average 7 footer . But , a quality player .

Kolek is from Rhode Island and played at Geo Mason . How did Cooley first and then , English let him get away ?

The game today requires every team to have a 3 point sharpshooter . Maybe more than 1.
plus the PG who can blow by defenders and score , get fouled , etc

Pitino reaching out to the Kid from Greece is recruiting where the Players you want are located .

Illinois doesn't guard well though. Iowa State was 11 for 25 in layups/dunks. They beat themselves. Hope I'm wrong, but I think Uconn stomps them.
