Oh. Didn't mean to sound condescending. Just seemed like a pretty big upset pick. Thought you might have gone there or something.
I think JJ went to Miami Ohio, too.

Sel-imposed. One of my buddies up here is fuming over it, too, saying that it was too harsh and that the NCAA wouldn't have penalized the Bucks anymore than a scholarship for Jim O'Brien's payment to a recruit back in the day.

At least they're being accountable for their actions. They'd received a lot of bad press the past few years.
It's the curse of Scoonie Penn.
...not really, I just love saying that name. Scoonie Penn.

Thad Motta is signed for a while though..which is good as long as he can recruit in the next two years..

Miami of Ohio was snubbed, as was Buffalo. The MAC is the Rodney Dangerfield of college basketball conferences.

Pretty incredible story. 9-18 entering the MCC tournament. Three upsets later, they're in the play-in game.

Y'all sleep on Fairleigh Dickinson every year, but I'm here to warn you. Don't make that mistake this year.
My picks are Illinois, Louisville, Wisconsin and Michigan State.
And that's terrible.

Interestingly, many of the guys on ESPN Radio had Alabama as a first-round exit. I believe Andy Katz this morning tabbed them as a good pick to lose to UW-Milwaukee.

When West Virginia got up by 20 points, I was ready to go get a lotto ticket and ask Pig Iron for some numbers.
My bracket is mortally wounded.
At least since it's Kentucky and Michigan State, instead of Duke, I won't have to see that god damn Laettner shot another twenty times, as I had previously feared.

In truth, I did think Michigan State was the better team(in that they're more experienced, and more skilled offensively), but after Pat Sparks' miracle, I was so sure Kentucky was the team of destiny. Didn't turn out that way.
I am really going to miss Chuck Hayes. Never the most talented guy on the floor, but always the one with the biggest heart. Right up there with Wayne Turner and Tony Delk on my all-time favorite 'Cats list.
