UNLV's going to be loaded next year too. Should be a solid conference next season.

True....but to be honest, I have lost track of whom is going to be in which conference at this point. I guess the MWC is joining together with the USA? Or is that only football, or am I off base here. The entire realignment honestly pisses me off to no end...but it's damn good to see BYU and UTAH fail so seriously bad after leaving the MWC.

The Lobo's will have all 3 phenom (Tony Snell, Kendall Williams and my man Alex Kirk will be back from back surgery that forced him to red-shirt this year) and will have the two Aussies that were DAMn solid this year in Barstow and of course the true Frosh Hugh Greenwood.. They will still have transfer Demetrius Walker and perhaps the best kept secret is that Alford's son, who red-shirted this year as a true Frosh will be playing next year.

Not sure they will do any better than they did this year, but at least there is hope again in the Duke City, which has'nt had much since the days of Stormin Normin Ellenberger!
 
They'll be alright, they always seem to reload after they lose a few players.

MWC stays itself next season, then they merge with CUSA or something after that. Kind of screwy.
 
Good to see NC State back.....been a while. I hope Leslie sticks around for at least one more year.

Hell of a game. I really thought we had this one......good luck the rest of the Tourney Cards.


BTW: The Lobos will be losing exactly 3 players, only 2 starters..although one of them is Drew Gordon. Lookout for what Alford is putting together in AQB. Lots and lots of talent all over that team

Drew Gordon is an absolute BEAST!! Man that kid is a hell of a player. The game a good one to watch with both teams bringing it.
 
Miami getting swept by NCSU doesn't look so bad now. Good for them. It's nice to see an ACC team other than UNC making a run.
 
There's a good chance they will. The heels might win one more on momentum alone but I doubt they can get much beyond the elite 8. Shame it had to end this way.....

Hope Marshall comes back for another year as well. He'd get a chance to take on more of the scoring load and to be perfectly honest next year's heels will be a lot more fun, even if they aren't quite as talented.

****ING Kansas. Mother ****ers. Bill Self is a moron. Took him an entire half to figure out to go zone when Painter puts Hummel at Center to force Robinson to matchup on him outside. Unreal. And Thomas Robinson is overrated as ****. Sloppy ass garbage shots that never go in and he cant make free throws.
 
I hate Florida State...but I think they got robbed.

Cincinnati's coach ran on to the court during a play and pulled a player into position lol.

Amateur hour.
 
It sucks possibly seeing a season go down b/c of a dirty play. The Heels were looking like they would be playing for another title but now it looks reaaly difficult especially w/ McDonald and Strickland already out. Hoping for a miracle where he can play and be close to himself but we'll see.
 
Some food for thought during this break in the tourney action:

Rick Pitino is 9-0 in Sweet 16 games. Average margin of victory: 22 points
U of L vs Michigan State is the primetime game on Thursday. It is going to be a good one.

Of the 16 teams left, 7 are from the states of KY, IN, and OH. It would have been 8 of the 16 if Purdue hadn't puked all over itself at the end of their game against Kansas. Sorry ACC fans, the center of the basketball universe is NOT tobacco road. It's the tristate area of the mid-east.

Of the 16 left, 4 are from the Big East and 4 are from the Big 10. Georgetown and USF almost made it 6 Big East teams, but I don't think JT3 is a big time coach so I'm not surprised Gtown lost and USF, well, they're USF. Still, a second round loss isn't bad for one of the last teams in the tournament.

Here's the games left and their start times:

Thursday, March 22
7:15 - 4 Wisconsin vs 1 Syracuse (EAST)
7:47 - 4 Louisville vs 1 Michigan St. (WEST)
9:45 - 6 Cincinnati vs 2 Ohio St. (EAST)
10:17 - 7 Florida vs 3 Marquette (WEST)

Friday, March 23
7:15 - 10 Xavier vs 3 Baylor (SOUTH)
7:47 - 13 Ohio vs 1 North Carolina (MIDWEST)
9:45 - 4 Indiana vs 1 Kentucky (SOUTH)
10:17 - 11 NC State vs 2 Kansas (MIDWEST)
