Considering that both teams are just heaving up threes with no real attempt at creating good shots, it's hardly a wonder that they are both shooting well under 40%So much for the over in this game. Jesus. 17-16 with under 6 minutes left in half?
Jay Wright is not a Villanova alum, he went to Bucknell.Hey, you were the idiot who decreed this the greatest conference ever. C'mon, it was stupid to say then and its proven out to be even more absurd. But at least UNC/Duke have NBA players. Louisville, ND, UVa, all these other teams maybe have one player. Maybe that will change since K, Roy, Boeheim and Pitino will likely all be retired in a couple years.
UConn and all the non P5 schools will not exist as relevent in the NCAAs in 4-5 years. Michigan athletic department revenues exceed the entire Big East TV contracts combined.Same with the AAC. And they are next two in line. The proud alum high quality coaches who keep the mid-majors going like Wright and Ollie will be dinosaurs soon. If the SEC wants to be good in hoops, they can pay their coaches $8M or more per year and not blink an eye. And if the NBA decides to keep kids in school for two years, the NCAA tourney will eventually look a lot like the CFB playoffs.
And I guess my computer autocorrects whenever i try to type "duke"
I would say Michigan and Wisconsin were underseeded and Minnesota overseeded. (The Gophers never freaking deliver.) Northwestern may have had a beef at the 7 seed, but that was probably fair..Maybe Mich and Izzo. Rest were proper. And Minnesota overseeded. Conference has played great thus far, nothing to take away from them.
Never count out a college team that has 35-year old Eric Piatkowski on it.This game suddenly feels like it's nearly over. Wichita State looks kinda unglued.
That would be so amazing. I was supposed to be somewhere at 2 pm (PT), but decided to be late. It would be a bummer if I was late for nothing...A stop and a score. Is that asking too much?
Thank you for beating tricky Rick.I would say Michigan and Wisconsin were underseeded and Minnesota overseeded. (The Gophers never freaking deliver.) Northwestern may have had a beef at the 7 seed, but that was probably fair..
As I said, I'm not complaining. Just enjoying the ride Michigan has been on the past two weeks and hope it keeps going.
I've said before and I'll say it again, Cal gets a bum rap. What he does to transform freshmen into 15 year NBA vets is ridiculous, especially on defense. Very underrated coach, not just a "recruiter"More great coaching and execution. UK totally prepared for those final two defensive possessions. Impressive.
Couldn't agree more. He's one of the best if not the best I've ever seen in the college game. If I hear another "But but the Nets!" my head may explode. Coaching has minimal impact in that league as we've seen time and time again......one of the worst coaches last year won a championship while one of the best finished with the worst record. There is a reason why they are paid similar to a reserve on their team.I've said before and I'll say it again, Cal gets a bum rap.

Umass will never get anyone like him again.
And why Cal is paid $7 million a year. He rebuilds his teams every season and meshes them together. That's a lot of coaching and teaching.Couldn't agree more.

If you can dunk like that you should get to do a little taunting.Looked like a really soft taunting call there.
It was a dumb call. It wasn't even egregious. And you should get to celebrate a dunk. Didn't matter, of course. Kansas just too much for Sparty. Ward getting his 4th ended the game.If you can dunk like that you should get to do a little taunting.
Jackson is a 2 at the next level and we would trade Crowder anywayAlright - Jackson might be our guy after that driving slam dunk, but what would we do with all the SFs?
I think he did when it was 30-13 UNCRoy retiring anytime soon?
