NCAA Tournament - non-Big East games discussion

[Jasper67]

ACC fans used to gloat about having 4 Hall of Fame coaches: K, Williams, Pitino, Boeheim.
Now they are down to zero.

With UVA already knocked out, the ACC is down to 4 schools remaining in the tournament.

Tony Bennett has aged like 25 years since his epic loss to UMBC. I don't think we get many coaches coaching into their 70s anymore.

South region is in disarray already. Praying that the Jays catch lightning in a bottle.

I don’t expect them to have any trouble with NC State, but then have to get by Baylor. Tall order.

Is there a more miserable human being than Mick Cronin ? What a freakin clown.

It reminds me of George Costanza's technique for looking busy: act as though you're mad and angry all the time.

See? Cronin looks like a super coach cuz he's mad and disappointed all the time... because Cronin demands perfection !!

I prefer coaches with a calm demeanor. For me, it all started with John Wooden . . . and the 2 Reds - Auerbach (Celtics) and Holman (Knicks).

Maybe there’s something about being the son of a coach. Guys like Cronin and Hurley still trying to impress their fathers. They obviously didn’t accomplish that as players.

Northern Kentucky gave Houston more than they wanted for much of the game. Tied in the second half, but the Norse shot 5-33 from distance and couldn't pull the 16 over 1 seed upset.

#1 seed Houston now plays Auburn in Birmingham. Cougars are already playing shorthanded and now they get to play a road game.

Are Auburn fans aware that they have a basketball team or is there spring football to pay attention to?
