Sad news... but '"the old left-hander" was Joe Nuxhall, the Cincinnati Reds broadcaster... he signed off of every broadcast with his trademark phrase "This is the old left-hander, rounding third and heading for home".

In ACC country and in particularly Maryland and Hampton Roads, Driesell was known as the ol' left-hander. 

I was just posting his obit and letting people know he died -- not trying to start a debate.

No worries... I grew up listing to the Reds broadcasts and when I read "ol left-hander", I could actually hear Nuxhall saying those words...

With that said, I do remember Driesell's nickname of "Lefty". In fact, I didn't know/remember his given name was "Charles" until I read the obit that you linked...

Jameer Nelson Jr with an off balance well guarded three pointer with 1.1 seconds left to knock off Kansas State.  Huge win for TCU, quad 1.  Quad 2 loss for a Kansas State team that was already on the outside looking in.

This UConn Marquette matchup is high level. They’re not even playing the same sport as IU right now.

Virginia is so good in close games. They can’t even make FT’s today but are going to close this out. Still amazes me a bunch of seniors botched that tourney game last year.  
 

Bennett loses his best player next year but has a nice young core coming back next year.

That game was crazy.

Wisky/Iowa going to OT.  Freeman is going to be a stud.  Thought he was a good one when IU was recruiting him 

[RaceToTheTop 24,931]

Another loss for Wisky.

Feels like they'll be due for a "get right" game when they stroll in to Bloomington.

Given our history, that wouldn’t surprise me

South Carolina blows a 16 point second half lead to a bad LSU team and loses 64-63.  Horrible week for them, losing by 40 to Auburn and then to LSU at home.

And that one win was a pretty lackluster one at home versus a bad Ohio State team. We need to win that one.

Hell of a win by UK at Auburn without Mitchell. Frosh guards in the tourney can be dicey for sure, but if they defend like they did tonight I’m not sure their best isn’t better than anyone else’s, .

Hopefully this doesn't offend anyone but indiana state sucks. I am done with them lol. That is all.

Auburn clearly rattled tonight by all the "Pearl to IU" smoke. Feels like it's just a matter of time now.

Isu loses at Southern Illinois.   Have to win arch madness.
