Running NCAA men's tournament thread 2012

Do you think Peyton Siva is big man on campus now? Holy cow, he'll probably get hit on by at least 10 girls tonight.

 

Do you think the traffic to a city during Sweet 16/Elite Eight weekend is remotely close to the Super Bowl?

They should take the preseason poll's top four teams, pick a neutral stadium in each of those states for the regional locations and call it a day.

 

OK, crazy question, since I see the parquet floor in Boston vs. the traditional ones in other venues: Does the NCAA bring in courts specifically for use in a regional, or do they just remark an existing floor so it looks neutral? If the former, then, what happens after the regional?

 

I know posters here that have given you advice in the past have come to regret it, but maybe stop for a few seconds before you post and think to yourself, "does this make any sense?"

 

And Vern Lundquist answers my question ... who knew he reads this fourm?

 

Or better yet, go the fuck away.

 

and the answer is?

 

The NCAA doesn't pay for the floors though. The host site has to pick up the check. Or at least that's the way it worked when they started using these courts a few years ago.

 

I knew that Brown was at USC but never realized that he was at KU. When was he there?

 

He was there from 1983-88 and won an NCAA title in 1988.
