Kansas looked great against Portland State. Did I expect anything else? I have been burned too many times by Kansas losses in the first or second round. It wasn't until this season that I started to really like Brandon Rush. His last few games have really shown him to be an all-around player who doesn't just hit a lot of 3 point shots. I can't help but think how this team would perform if Julian Wright was still in the college game. Poor Portland State. I hope they make it back next year. Oh and Mangino in the crowd? I would hate sitting next to him. That dude is huge.
Why would they bump basketball for Price is Right or Dr. Phil?
I have never liked Bob Huggins, so it is painful to see his current team succeed. I really liked West Virginia under John Beilein.
The Duke-Belmont game. Coach K looked ill most of the game. If only....
I think all coaches should refuse to have their pre-game speeches televised. They always make the coaches look like idiots. They have made Pat Summit sound dumb. The George Mason coach (who I like) sounded even dumber. I laughed when he said that they should make the Notre Dame leprechaun disappear, crumpled up a photo of the Irish guy and threw it into the trash. I don't think giggling is the reaction he is looking for from his audience. I am grateful for the pre-game speech from Bruce Weber when Illinois actually went far in the tourney (4 years ago?) Ever since then, I have always remembered his psychotic eyes and orange suit and have ignored everything else about his coaching.
Oregon played horrible ball. I never thought they deserved their bid and definitely not their seed. I know...I know...blasphemy. They played flat. Should we bet on how long before Kent is fired?
Hansborough - I read a quote the other day that describes how I feel about Tyler's play. Someone said that he would run down the court with his arms in a windmill fashion, knocking everyone down as his eyes bug out and he screams. Perfect.
I have to admit that I napped through the UConn overtime loss.

I hate to say it, but I'm in complete agreement with you about Oregon. I'll also go out on a limb and say that Kent won't get to coach a game in the new arena.
