I don’t watch much college basketball until the tournament(s) start, so I’m curious If there are certain players that you are keeping an eye on that may be available in the second round of this years draft. 

Duke vs Syracuse game was pretty entertaining earlier today... BC vs Miami coming up next...
Gotta love March Madness.

At some point you have to blame the performance on the court on the players on the court. Every loss is not the coach's fault and every win isn't because of the players.

#2 Kentucky upset by #15 Saint Peters in OT. Wow...

How do you let a 15 seed win an overtime period?  I get upsets happen, but there is no way the 2 seed should lose the 5 minute OT period to a 15 seed.  Ever. 

Thankfully I only had UK in the Sweet Sixteen and I picked Richmond, New Mexico St., and Michigan so I'm doing quite well thus far.

Really good game between Baylor and UNC. OT thriller. Looking forward to the Zags/Memphis game tonight.

So UCONN, Alabama, Baylor, Kentucky, Colorado St. all upset. And oh, #1 Kansas right now is having some trouble against #9 Creighton.

What a start to March Madness.

Calipari to me is kind of like Peyton Manning. Phenomenal regular seasons, then typically chokes during the big games late. He's had so many loaded teams over the years and just 1 title to show for it in the last 12 years.

PC can beat anybody IF they get any offense. Today they shot over 50% from beyond the arc.

Creighton would have had a good chance to knock off Kansas if they hadn't lost two of their players to injury recently.

My bracket isn't doing that bad given all of the upsets as long as the Zags complete the comeback and win.  I had them winning the whole thing, so they need to win.  Have them beating Arizona in the final with Purdue and Kansas also being in the Final 4.  So pretty good shape if the Zags stay alive.

The Friars are riding high. I hope they go all the way.  They are a really fun team to watch.
