    Just got home from a pedicure and a mud wrap. Did I miss anything?

    If Hunter can make that much of a difference, he’s the #1 pick in the draft and it’s not close.

    Seriously. Winning is fun. But this March shit is embarrassing. Five years in a row:

    - Sweet 16 exit as a 1 seed
    - Round of 32 loss as a 2 seed
    - Blow an 18 point lead in the last 10 minutes with a chance to go to the Final 4 as a 1 seed
    - Score 39 points in an NCAA tourney game
    - Become the first team 1 seed to ever lose to a 16 seed

    There need to be some answers here.

    I mean, if that’s in the regular season, UVA wins by 30. Something is rotten.

    But you’re advocating firing a coach after a 31-3 season that most people figured would be something like 20-12.

    Is Tony Bennett close with Peyton Manning?

    They've quietly taken up the mantle of "Great team that gets a high seed and then routinely shits the bed in the Tournament."
    Arizona had it for a while. Then it went to Kansas. It looked like Arizona was making an Ali-like comeback after Thursday night, but Virginia said, "Not so fast, my friend."

    They’d be crazy to fire him. I don’t want that at all. I’m saying he probably should think seriously about taking another job. Programs don’t come back from this.

    In all seriousness, he needs to go visit Roy Williams this summer. His teams used to get extremely tight like that in the NCAA Tournament. Roy figured it out though.

    Go look at Dixon’s record at Pitt. There’s a reason we were getting irritated. This defense first shit only takes you so far in March.
