Running 2022-23 NCAA Basketball Thread

Watching Rutgers-Michigan
Announcer: “Rutgers takes the ball away.”
Reality: “He threw it right in his fucking hands.”
Oh, and I hope Hunter Dickinson enjoys his next life as the latter day Dennis Awtrey

 

What's more corrupt, the FBI or college hoops?

How an FBI agent’s wild Vegas weekend stained a probe into NCAA basketball corruption

 

Rutgers putting the boots to 'em big time now.
U-M has put on a last-minute run to keep it under 20.
The NIT beckons Team Juwan.

 

St. John's is up one with 1:34 left and has a chance to somehow upset Marquette, which shouldn't be that much of a surprise b/c Shaka Smart's teams have gacked in tourney formats since the 2011 Final Four run.

 

Welcome to the NIT Michigan

 

My teams for the 2023 NCAA tournament: Colgate and Furman. Micro Jr.'s reaction: "They will get bumped early."

Visited Colgate on graduation weekend 1971 on a college tour, even though there was no way in hell I'd ever get in there. Spent one night with two other 16-year-old buddies drinking in the "Old Stone Jug." Fake IDs are a wonderful thing. Plus Gloria Borger went there. Hamilton is a cool, isolated little town and campus is pretty sweet.

We played Furman in college. Our PA announcer introduced Fessor Leonard as "Leonard Fessor, the first 7-footer to play in the Robins Center."

 

Holy shit that was almost an all-time ending.

 

St. John's St. Johns'd it. I think I'm going to bet a year's worth of rent on the UConn/Providence winner tomorrow night.

 

Will Juwan stick his finger in the face of the NCAA Tournament committee for disrespecting him?

 

Holy shit I’m ready to barf if I hear Jimmy Dykes proclaim Mississippi State a lock one more time, as though Lunardi was the 13th disciple or something.

 

Does anyone know just how accurate Lunardi has been with his brackets over time?

 

I’m sure he has a lot of right seed/wrong region and wrong seed/right region
