With Musselman moving on from Arkansas, Kentucky coach John Capilari leaving to take his job at Arkansas. Was definitely on the hot seat after the Kentucky performance over the last couple of seasons.
Every time Capilari leaves one school for another I have this vision of the NCAA right behind him...

Xavier with a great comeback to get into the dance
Plus the stripes were horrible with several calls favoring Texas.

This is the first telecast of the tournament without Greg Gumbel on it in 40 years. That makes me sad.
It’ll be weird not hearing his iconic voice.

St. John’s really likes to play “rez ball”. Defense followed by some run and gun.

The term "rez ball" made me remember this movie, which is very good. Yes, cliched, yes, formula, but also, yes, good.
When you tell somebody somethin', it depends on what part of the United States you're standin' in... as to just how dumb you are.
Thanks… I’m definitely going have to see it!!!

UC San Diego… Genuine excitement and appreciation at its best even after a heart breaking loss.

I am by no means a basketball expert. I have seen the same situation twice today. Team down by 5 with 40 seconds left and has to play defense. They let the other team tick off 10 seconds before fouling. Then they’re down 7 with 30 seconds left. Admittedly the odds are slim, but still extend the game as much as you can. It’s almost as if the players have to look at the coach to tell them what to do.
Badgers about to ruin the B10s perfect record in the tournament so far

What a come back by the Houston Cougars to beat Duke and advance to the Championship game!!!
Down 14 points (56-42) in the second half they end the game on a 28-11 run to win 70-67.
They where down 7 (66-59) with less than 1:20 left but go on a 11-1 run over the last 1:14.
Duke losing last night was classic. And reading the social media comments from Duke fans is even better. Plus I have Houston winning it in my pool.
