Lots of solid careers but not many elite... redick, Laetner, hill, boozer, dunelavy, brand etc Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app Agree with your general point on Duke guys in the NBA, though not sure I’d have Brand and Hill on that list. If injuries didn’t derail him Grant Hill is a 10-time All-Star and HOFer. Brand while not on that level, was a multi-time All-Star. Even Laettner made an All-Star game, though I do admit his career in the NBA was not what people had hoped. Again though, I do agree with overall point. thebigweave and Btownclouds 2 Quote
Stuhoo Posted March 26, 2018 Posted March 26, 2018 Kyrie Irving was at Duke for a few minutes too. Probably the best or second best guard on the planet currently. MikeRoberts and chicagoHOOSIER 2 Quote

Bailey7878 Posted March 26, 2018 Posted March 26, 2018 The most amazing thing about Michigan is the highest ranked recruit the have was ranked 65th. He is doing this with mostly 3 star players and they only lose two players after this yeas. He is one hack of a coach.Sent from my SM-J700T using Tapatalk Crimson and Cream 1 Quote
Bailey7878 Posted March 26, 2018 Posted March 26, 2018 I realize that the numbers update as the tournament progresses, but if the Kenpom 20/20 rule holds, the winner will either be Villanova or Michigan. Go Nova. I just want Kansas to go down.Sent from my SM-J700T using Tapatalk Quote

He cut UNC despite the current championship for various reasons. Kansas is already in his final cut and being the current champion COULD give them a slightly more appeal than they already have. AND, if Romeo truly doesn't know where he wants to go (which is supposedly the case) it could be what tips the scale. Quote
CSP Posted March 26, 2018 Posted March 26, 2018 To me, at this point, it would take Nova playing poorly to lose. And I don't mean shooting poorly, they shot poorly yesterday 19-57 from the field(33%) and 4-24 from 3 (17%) and won by 12. Brunson is as good of a college guard as I can remember. I'm honestly jealous of what they have going right now. ALASKA HOOSIER, chicagoHOOSIER, BtownBanner6 and 2 others 5 Quote
HoosierFan1994 Posted March 26, 2018 Posted March 26, 2018 I've got Villanova over Michigan. I really like this Final Four. Loyola was obviously very underrated. Quote
Crimson and Cream Posted March 26, 2018 Posted March 26, 2018 I've got Nova beating Michigan in the final. Really as long as Kansas doesn't win I'm happy. ALASKA HOOSIER and Stuhoo 2 Quote

Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners Does this mean none of the 4 will continue the trend, or was this spotlight on Kansas only? Quote

Kansas is at 40 now I don’t think they could get below 18 in the games.

Uspshoosier Posted April 1, 2018 Author Posted April 1, 2018 Michigan is first team to ever make the title game without facing a team seeded higher than 6. UNC managed to make both 2005 and 2016 title games facing only teams seeded 5 or lower.Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners CR3AMnCR1MS0N and ALASKA HOOSIER 2 Quote

Uspshoosier Posted April 1, 2018 Author Posted April 1, 2018 The Final Four record for most three-pointers in a game is 13 (UNLV vs Indiana in 1987; the first year of three-point shot). Villanova has 10. There are nearly seven minutes left. In the first half.David worlock They have 12 with 4 min to go in 1st half Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners ALASKA HOOSIER and thebigweave 2 Quote
