I'm glad I'm taking Friday off so I can sleep late after a late Thursday night

I think UK is 7 behind them. If UK gets to the finals and hits a three in each game they will be only one behind going into next season.
I don't have a link. I am going by what others said on a UK forum I am involved in. I believe what I read was accurate.
That was a ridiculous three he hit. Also, how often did that Baylor player, who was shooting 83% from the line, miss the front end of a one and one? Poor kid.
Great day of basketball
First tournament day to have 5 yes 5 one point games
Arkansas got out played by Wofford but found a way to survive and advance

According to ESPN radio this morning, only 270 perfect brackets are left from the over 1 million filled out on the ESPN challenge.
I regret that I woke up late from a nap & only saw the last 6-8 minutes of the UC Irvine-Louisville game,& greatly regret that Louisville beat UC Irvine because that meant that we couldn't see 7'6" Mamadou Ndiaye anymore in the tournament. Hopefully he'll stay in school for both his junior & senior years so that he can develop more,& then become what we haven't seen in the NBA for a long time,a "true" 7 foot center that we haven't seen since the glory days of Wilt Chamberlain,Kareem Abdul Jabbar,Patrick Ewing,David Robinson,& Shaquille O'Neal(I didn't add Hakeem Olajuwon to this list because there are doubts that he was realy 7 feet tall). I'd love to put names like Yao Ming & Ralph Sampson on this list,but injuries cut both of their careers short. Even if Ndiaye is only as good as Artis Gilmore & Dikembe Mutombo,that would still be good enough for the NBA,& he'd still be the best true center currently in the NBA. The key is to stay in school another 2 years in school & develop as a center. If the "socialist" NCAA would allow it,both Kareem Abdul Jabbar(could you imagine if Ndiaye learned how to shoot the Skyhook?) & maybe Hakeem Olajuwon should be allowed to work with him to help him develop into a premier center. One fault that I saw with him,I was surprised that he was NEVER called for a lane violation. He might as well have taken root & been planted underneath the opponent's basket.
About the ending of the Louisville game; 9 times out of 10 that last play is called a foul.
Watching the Iowa-Gonzaga game & I suddenly feel old because I'm watching Arvydas Sabonis' son Domantas playing for Gonzaga. Gonzaga has a pretty international team representing Lithuania,Poland,& Canada.
Happy about the outcome of last nights UK and WVA game but it was brutal to watch how involved the refs were. Neither team could get into a rhythm and it just made it such a long game. I think the refs have become a huge problem in all sports, especially College BBall, all football, and baseball. Just makes some games so difficult to watch.
