That's why I said many.  I'm neutral as is what I would say most of this board is.  Think probably most of us would have been fine with both teams losing.  Not finding much on youtube with good shots of this but looking at this I certainly don't see it.

Could it be we're all numbed by the Big 1.o? That's a solid block out in this league depending on the teams.

That's fine. I did, you didn't. We do definitely agree on one thing. We both love the Hoosiers.

I hope that when Wisconsin loses (hopefully soon), Brad Davison fouls out and the opposing fans serenade him with “Varsity”.

He's going to get picked, don't get me wrong, but I'm interested how much money this year of college basketball costs someone like Emoni Bates. Easily a top 5 pick I'd expect before the college year started, now, I'm not so sure

Doug Edert on Saint Peters with his bad porno mustache is the Muhammad Ali of New Jersey.

Discuss.

Yea, I'm a big fan of Penny Hardaway's coaching and recruiting styles, too. Hardway has displayed so much more class at Memphis than Gonzaga's Mark Few.

As USPS predicted, Tyrell Ward, top 50 SF, has decommitted from Xavier. Really talented kid. Had an IU offer.

I love that St. Peter's in the sweet sixteen, but this talk about Shaheen Holloway being the flavor of the week and moving on to a power  job just reminds me of the mistake that Illinois made in hiring John Groce.  Some steps are too big and too early for some coaches.

This may be. And I grant you it seems to bomb more often than not, but St Peter's to Seton Hall doesn't seem like the massive jump like Ohio to Illinois or many others. If the Pirates hire him, they get a guy with new national exposure and a guy that knows local recruiting well. No guarantees though.

I would say the difference is that Holloways name had been mentioned even before this run by people in the know.  He was listed as one to keep an eye on.  I watched more St Peters games this year because of that.   Groce had a run in the tourney and Illinois jumped on him.  Groce wasn’t getting praise like Holloway was

It's what USC did with Enfield... But they may have also only hired him because of his wife.

My buddy was used to be a student manager for seton hall bball while he went there. He is very confident that Holloway is going there after Willard goes to Maryland.
