ORU factoid you’ll be the only one on your block who knows: For the 1st 30 or so years of the school’s existence, including the full 6 I was there, they were the Titans. Then, somebody finally realized that the Titans were the old gods of Greek mythology and just maybe that wasn’t the most appropriate mascot for a devout Methodist University. Turned into quite the tempest in a teapot for a minute.

St. Mary's is playing against Gonzaga like we did against Iowa.

Very disappointing game.

24 wins against NET 142 and above plus  4 other wins against non d1 teams 

0-4 against top 50 teams the road 

1 win against the NET top 141 (Liberty-43)

So about the same quality as Houston.  A joke but when St. Mary's and Virginia are the only wins against ranked teams, I'm not impressed.  No way should they be overall #1 with that resume.

Messiah Jones from Wofford is in the portal.

PLEASE let him transfer to Oral Roberts.  The jokes write themselves.

Oral Roberts is why I wasn't to avoid the 5 seed.

Fall asleep during champ week and you miss out on good ones.    Montana St in 2OT and Utah Tech in OT in the very late games last night.    Looking forward to seeing how they ended

So I take it you're on the Matthew Mayer diet this week?

They were disappointing but they answered the question of which was the real UNC team last year - the regular season UNC or the NCAAT UNC. The answer was an emphatic "regular season UNC". The run was the fluke.

How much longer does UNC give Davis to turn it around?

I missed all the games yesterday because I have the stomach flu. Got home last night at 4PM and went right to bed and pretty much slept until 8:30 this morning

Do you mean BJ Mack from Wofford? I don't see the Messiah Jones jokes (religious jokes, maybe?) but certainly see the jokes that would come from someone named BJ at a school with Oral in its name.

So what's happening has nothing to do with Davis. A lot of jealousy has stenches the program because other players are jealous that Bacon got a larger amount of NIL money and one of the players is dating one of the other players former girlfriend and causing a lot of tension.   Everyone wants Davis to flush it and redo the lineup.
