Selection Sunday-NCAA tournament thread

Roy Williams was 42 when he made his second Final Four appearance.

 

I apologize. I missed the first one when I was looking at his career. That said, he was 54 when he won his first title, and Calipari was 53 when he won it all.

 

So Spike Albrecht, stone cold killer.

 

And we now interrupt these important messages for the game ...

 

One of the reasons I hate college basketball. Louisville calls a timeout and they go to commercial. They come back and play all of 18 seconds and then have an automatic timeout? Bullshit. Do what the NBA does and have automatic timeouts tied to the teams' allotted number of timeouts.

 

This is Mark2010's favorite half of college basketball in years.

 

They should also go to quarters, insert a 3- minute TV time out at the 10:00 mark and get rid of a couple of the mandatories.

Cut the discretionary time outs to 1 75-second and 2 30-second TOs -- and enforce the time limits. When the time out is over, plant the ball on the court and start counting five. If either team isn't ready for the throw-in, tough shit.

 

Thriller thru 20.

And yeah, Spike Fucking Albrecht.

 

Ha, I was going to post something similar...

 

Good adjustments by Pitino once again after Louisville fell behind. And John Beilien should have put Trey Burke back in the game sooner. Albrecht played out of his mind for a while there, but that wasn't going to last, and Albrecht is the friggin national player of the year.

 

Well, we got a whole 57 seconds between the timeouts here.

 

Terrible call on Burke, but that makes up for about 6 calls earlier that should have been made. The white-haired gentleman in stripes has been 2-3 steps too slow all night.
