Very envious of you. I'm going to be enjoying my St. Paddy's day much the way you are doing it right there. Today cannot end fast enough...
NCAA fun
I have the ESPN app going crazy on my phone right now
Cool thing is with everyone having a p hone or tablet is they can stream whatever game they want.....used to have 3 tv's going but it's actually too many in a living room.....I found myself scanning across the room the next day after when I was just watching one tv.
London Perrantes is good, really good!
Cheers!
Half time
Lots of good games so far, enjoying the tourny.....princeton, almost, middle ten st takes it too minnesota....picked that one, as minnesota was over seeded,, pretty much chalk today.....kudos to Northwestern, that was a helluva game.
Today reaffirmed how bad I am at filling out brackets.
Good job bucky!
Interesting tidbit....Buzz Williams coaches at Marquette for years and he faced uw for many battles and then eventually moved on to VA Tech....ncaa pairs uw vs. VA tech, hmmmmm?, what are the odds?? Anyways, Wisco dominates once again!
The Badgers looked lost on defense for a lot of the game but their shooting was lights out, including the free throw line!
Since my undergrad school finally got rid of our coach, I'm left with rooting for my grad school.
Go Bucky!
I wish you (and me) well, but I think you're gonna have yet another reason to hate Calipari. He's a phenomenal recruiter in this one-and-done era, but not the greatest coach on the planet. I don't see them moving beyond the final 8, and even at that I think they will have overachieved.
Too many "me" players who don't get the concept of team basketball.
But I digress... hoping he moves on very soon, so UK can get a good reputable, all-around coach. Calipari is seriously overrated. But he also knows this, which is why he'll continue the gravy train ride at Kentucky until it finally dawns on them that he's nothing more than a good recruiter.
Until then, I'll remain a distant fan of the program.
Calipari is the perfect coach for Kentucky....As much as I dislike him, he can coach and recruit.
Can't believe they gave him the axe. Seemed like a good guy and was turning the program around at IU.
The problem is that every big program wants results now. And "now" isn't as practical as the fans/boosters think it should be.
On the flip side, at least it appears that Alford will be returning, if they offer him the job. I think he'll fit right in there back home.
I don't really care for Calipari, but I think he is more than just a good recruiter. As a game coach I think he is somewhat underrated.
