    Maybe, but it is annoying that the refs can spend five minutes determining where an elbow landed to determine a Flagrant 1 or 2 but can't review a play like that.

    Seems like an easy fix to say that in the last minutes of each half, those plays are all reviewable.

    That second one they played in may have been the worst championship game ever.

    In what ways are Butler (and what year are you referring to?) and FGCU similar? I'm curious as to how you even arrived at your initial question.

    Goddamn it's nice to have Sonya Curry finding tournament success again.

    The second game was the year they played UConn in 2011. Butler shot like 15 percent.

    The way FGCU is playing, and the swag they're exhibiting, there's no reason to think the Eagles can't win a national title. They have the talent, and all the players are discovering the talent at the right time.

    They're a great story, and fun to watch, but those types of teams way too often end up crashing and burning hard in the second weekend. It wouldn't surprise me if Florida wins by 30 on Friday night.

    Enfield has $100 million, a hot wife and apparently coaching genius. His team has the talent these other teams do, they're just realizing it for the first time now. The way they're moving the ball, and dunking, and shooting, I don't think teams like Michigan, Indiana or Louisville could beat them. Florida? Please.

    I'm sorry - every time I hear Baylor's Griner talk, I cannot see this person getting fixed up with makeup and nail polish. Lord have mercy what she's had to endure. Or he, or whatever. Damn, just nothing out there to compare her to.


    By the way, how many first-round upsets on the women's bracket? Two? And we wonder why there's not equal bracket fever?

    So it isn't that big of a surprise that Enfield is married to a model. She didn't marry a hoops coach, she married a Wall Street guy who made a killing, who now coaches basketball.

    The funny thing is - Enfield might be the one basketball coach who could actually write a good book about business that corporate types could learn from, instead of the usual claptrap cash grab that those books tend to be.
