Lets go Florida gc!!!!!
Man I picked the Hoyas to advance a couple rounds but it was great to see FL GC get the win. Very impressive!!!
I had me in the elite 8 but I do love watching upsets
I had them in the elite 8 too. Between that and my west bracket things are looking bad. My only saving grace will be if the Bucks win it all as I'm the only one in the pool That picked tOSU.

Jack Cooley will be a problem for us.

Iowa State is like Iona. They LOVE to jack up 3's. However they are very beatable.

Just some thoughts about our next game.
Notre Dame was the slowest and unathletic team in the tourney. They make Wisconsin look like the Miami Heat. There foot speed was destroyed vs Iowa State. Iowa State is fast, athletic and they love to jack up 3's. However there is no real stand out player we need to be scared of. So we shouldn't have to double team anyone. They gamble a lot on defense. If you make smart passes there defense will get torched. We have some reall good ball handlers too which helps. We should play small ball.

Completely off topic here, but can the Browns draft this Mitch McGary dude from Michigan?? He is laying VCU people out with completely legal screens! TE maybe??!
Reminds me of Gates when he was at Kent State...
And...if you don't play college football, do you still have to wait 3 years post-high school to be eligible to play in the NFL??

Yes. The rule has nothing to do with what you do in those 3 years, just that you have to be 3 years removed.
It's like how Brandon Jennings went overseas and played professionally for his 'one year removed from high school' before heading to the NBA.

I'm surprised more kids don't do that - spend a year getting paid to live in a foreign country and play basketball... I understand the love of college sports and the chance to play on a national stage before the NBA, but if I had the talent I'd probably go and get paid for a year.

It doesn't always work out like it did for Jennings.

I think the skill and talent has shown today. These teams only had a day to rest and prepare.
I hate to admit it, but wow Michigan looks incredible. VCU isn't a pushover, and they made them look like a CYO team.

Arizona is going to be a really tough matchup. However I have faith in Matta.
Indiana was just a complete nightmare matchup wise because of there athleticism and size. However Matta found something that worked.

With Gonzaga down now, the Bucks will have no one but themselves to blame for not making to the final 4.

Well Butler / VCU it was fun while it lasted. Now you get to watch as UCLA steals Brad Stevens / Shaka Smart from you with a fat freaking contract.

It's kind of ironic that #1 Gonzaga, who was famous for ousting top ranked teams, was ousted as a top ranked team themselves.

I'd really like to see a little full court press by us. We are really bothering their guards with our defense.
