Selection Sunday-NCAA tournament thread

And he finished second in the dunk conest in 1991.

 

barring a gambling or sexual abuse/ harassment scandal directly involving JTIII, he's got that job as long as his dad is alive. Big John is still on the payroll at Gtown and for whatever reason he's still got lots of clout.

 

All true . . . but it's going to be pretty damned funny if this keeps happening.

 

Author of numerous fouls that aren't called. Waiting for an honest officiating crew to work a Kansas game that matters.

 

You'd think the Disgusting Old Man was still the coach. Brought back memories -- all bad.

 

Somebody in the office was talking about how few people were at the third game in SLC Thursday ... sure, the arena was empty, but the second session began at 5 p.m. local time on a Thursday. What the hell do you expect?

 

A friend of mine made hundreds — maybe thousands — writing most of Chapman's term papers and big reports in high school. True story.

Remember Chapman as a white guy with serious hops. Dude could get up there.

 

I've been going to NCAA games for a while now and this wasn't an issue until they changed how they did TV. There were always around three hours between sessions at each site. You had time to get out, eat dinner at a sit down restaurant and get back in for the next session with time to spare. Now it's go out and come back in, especially if games run long, and they always run long.

Two years ago in Denver it was so tight that half tphe first half was over before most people got in. The last game of the first session almost went to OT too. They would have been screwed then. And most of the fans there were to see BYU and they were the first game of the second session. I sort of felt bad for those who spent a lot of money to see their team play and missed a quarter of the game.

I'm in Lexington this year and we had enough time to get fast food and still make it back in for tip. Obviously not the case everywhere.

 

eat at the gym. Don't they have hotdogs and beer? That's what they did when they brought their typewriters to the game.

 

I've been going as a fan and the food outside is usually better and less expensive. Plus it's nice to get a little fresh air.

I understand why they changed it for TV. It's great having 12 hours straight of tourney games on. But people do spend a lot of money to go to the games too. Some consideration should be given to that.

 

As much as my bracket is busted, on my best sheet I had Gtown and KState as final 4, of the top 16 teams only 3 are gone. Gtown, KSU and NM.( only 1 of top 8 )

For all the upsets and choke jobs, by the time the next Thursday starts, it will be 67% chalk.

 

Lobos lose, writer quits.
