Thread: 2014 March Madness Thread

I said March, but anything College Basketball related is fine. I didn't see a thread. I guess no one else watches?

I would be happy if they brought back the rule where freshmen can't play. I'm sure I am in the minority on that one.

Why?

Honestly, I probably can't come up with an unbiased reason. I really hate Kentucky and John Calipari.

I'm down with that.

Unless, they decide to expand the tournament to 128 teams, I'm pretty sure my Wyoming Cowboys won't be invited.

As far as my other team, Arizona Wildcats, it'll be interesting to see if their loss to ASU eventually costs them a #1 seed.

A guy I know played in the 70s. They couldn't play as freshmen, so he led the SEC in assists for 3 years. I have no idea when they made up the rule and when they got rid of it.

Obviously, if they brought it back, the probably would allow players to skip college for the NBA.

UVA baby! #14 in the nation.

I believe the Marshall football team plane crash in the 70's paved the way for allowing freshmen to play in all sports.

I think Kentucky is coming down to earth a little of their initial success with the 1 and done's. They are looking at likely their second consecutive 10+ loss season, and this team was supposed to have the greatest collection of talent ever and haven't really looked the bill. They are still capable though.

Another typical Kansas March for myself. Another Big 12 Championship, high expectations, capable of beating anyone on any night, but also capable of losing. March for a Kansas fan is a nervous train wreck.

Yes. And I'm loving it.

Kentucky lost again, while Tennessee beat the shit out of Vandy 76-38.

UVA baby! Took out #4 Cuse today. Love it

Ranked 5th in the nation now. Man, i hope we have a great tournament run.

Timmy Miles turning that program around!

Vols finished the season really well. I hope they can keep that going into the SEC tournament.
