VCU on a 9-0 run.  Only down 6 with 12 min to go 

[Uspshoosier]

Florida will be my pick for the team I think is extremely clicking going into the tourney and make a sweet 16 run as a 6 or 7 seed that will lose in the first round.

Uh oh Rams

Depends on whether they get the 11 seed from the First 4 or a 28-5 conference champ like Grand Canyon or Drake.

I agree with him on this one. Feel bad for those who are seniors and grad students and won't get a chance to extend what they have left of eligibility for the year.

Crean is correct. It would have been a good way to develop players, much like a bowl game.  It is embarrassing that IU bowed out because our program is in such disarray and because coach Woodson didn't want another loss on his record.

In most years I'd agree but who are we going to develop continuing to play under Woodson's coaching?
