Watch out for Gonzaga

Kentucky is the clear favorite, but come on. Saying Duke and Arizona have no chance vs Kentucky is a bit absurd. Kentucky goes to OT with Ole Miss at Rupp but Duke and Arizona have no chance on a neutral court?

Good call. I overlooked Duke and AZ. Anything could happen in the NCAA which is the beauty of a one-game format.

Whether someone has a liberal, or conservative viewpoint, a authoritative figure should not lock a thread for the sole purpose to get the last word in all the while prohibiting someone else from being able to respond.

Sad news indeed.


I hope he has found peace, and that his family and friends find strength in this sad time.

Florida wins again last night, but they didn't make it easy.....again. Story of the season. Blow another huge lead, terrible at free throw line. Luckily they held on. This team is about 4 huge blown leads (Kansas, Miami to name a few), an own bucket, and timely free throws away from being an entirely different record. Frustrating.

I read an earlier article. Checking with others to see if what I read was right. They lose 12 scholarships over 2 years correct?

Flipping though and see this UCF/East Carolina game on ESPNU. About 100 people there.

UNF will most likely be the only Florida team invited to the NCAA Tourney !!!  :thumbsup:

They are moving that tourney to Orlando next year.

The problem with that conference is the teams are so spread out. Unless it is a local team (or one of the others is highly ranked), the crowds will be minimal.

It was just as bad for the U Miami vs Notre Dame game last night at 9:30pm in Greensboro.

Yeah, the first rounds of most leagues dont get a good turn out.  There were some good finishes last night too.

Perhaps they should allow the higher seed to host the opening round of conference tournaments.  Pehaps they should do away with the neutral site all together.

VCU finally exorices the Richmond demon for this season. Now it's on to play the sharp shooting Davidson team tomorrow. Welcome to March!

The next few weeks are among the best in sports.

Aaaaand VCU exacts revenge for the worst loss in Shaka Smart's career by beating Davidson by 20. On to the A-10 finals!

Being 1 1/2 hours from Dayton, Go Flyers! Should be a good game. Both teams should be locks for the tournament.

The VCU Dayton games are always good, especially since Smart has connections to Dayton. Here's to hoping for another good game!
