KingintheNorth4 Posted March 18, 2017 Share Posted March 18, 2017 West Virginia really played a complete game. Their full court pressure defense ain't no joke. Villanova better beat Wisconsin. I picked them to win it all this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rhom Posted March 18, 2017 Share Posted March 18, 2017 Welp... lost a title game participant in my bracket. And even worse; Wisconsin moves on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KingintheNorth4 Posted March 18, 2017 Share Posted March 18, 2017 Good move by Illinois. I'm cautiously optimistic about this hire. Annnnnd there goes my bracket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sperry Posted March 18, 2017 Share Posted March 18, 2017 Jay Wright bounced on the first weekend of the tournament. Good to see the world has returned to equilibrium. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greywolf2375 Posted March 18, 2017 Share Posted March 18, 2017 going on against the refs is one thing, don't cost the game though - NW coaches need to control themselves whether they are right or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I swear I considered Wisconsin but didn't pull the trigger. Also sadly took Virginia over Florida which ain't looking good now. Northwestern really battled back but couldn't catch Gonzaga, and Arizona overcame a terrible start to beat St. Mary's, so this Gonzaga v. Arizona regional final that I really want to see could still happen. Not so fast my friend! Zags vs. WVU gonna be fun. And Xavier been on fire.

RedEyedGhost Posted March 19, 2017 Share Posted March 19, 2017 WTF happened to a Coach's timeout within 30 secs of a media timeout taking place of the media timeout rule?? It was just implemented last year, did the get rid of it this year? I've seen the quick double commercial break BS so many times during KU games this season, and it just happened in Mich-Louis: 7:37 left in the half, Mich gets trapped in the corner calls TO, 12 seconds of game action later we get a dead ball, and another fucking long ass NCAA commercial break.

Jace, Extat Posted March 19, 2017 Share Posted March 19, 2017 I try not to complain about reffing, but Louisville is abusing Michigan all over the court but the Ann Arbor boys aren't even allowed to look directly at the hillbillies without a whistle.

Gonzaga still probably would have won, but it killed Northwestern's comeback effort. The coach losing his fucking mind is what cost them. They got the stop on the ensuing possession, but they still gave up the two points because of the Tech. That's a hard call to make in real time.

Rhom Posted March 19, 2017 Share Posted March 19, 2017 Damn... I thought Lamar Ball was a harmless piece of trash; but if this report is true, he's a legit piece of shit. Quote According to Andrew Stephens over at ArmChairAllAmericans.com, Tina Ball, the mother to the Ball boys, has been hospitalized since Feb. 21 after a severe stroke and life threatening skull surgery to relieve brain pressure. But she hasn’t seen her boys because Lavar will not let them visit her. According to the story, he says it will hurt the Ball brand and diminish sales of BBB merchandise. She has been alone in the hospital as he tours the country for media appearances. I sincerely hope that's not true. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dunno... as terrible as this may sound, I would think a sick mom would be the kind of story that would grow a brand. 4 hours ago, RedEyedGhost said: WTF happened to a Coach's timeout within 30 secs of a media timeout taking place of the media timeout rule??

And yes. I asked the same thing during the Kentucky game. In the first half, the refs were calling zero fouls. It was under six minutes and still hadn't had the under eight timeout. WSU calls timeout. Go to commercial. 12 seconds of game time pass, a traveling call gets the under eight TO. RIDICULOUS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
