[/quote] as long as they can pay him if he doesnt go to the final four. if he takes them to the final four i expect him to take the Pitt job after Jamie Dixon bolts to USC next month.

Would not surprise me if Wichita State beats Gonzaga.

WOW!!! Seth Davis, CBS analyst just called AAU basketball a "[b]Grass Roots Mess[/b]" 
He was talking about Georgetowns Otto Porter the Big East player of the year never playing AAU basketball and he turned out just fine.

I missed two yesterday: I have Arizona and Harvard losing. I have the feeling I'm going to miss a lot today.

Today--really wanted to pick La Salle...just couldn't do it.

[Guest Air Bisquit]

I have a feeling the Duke & Albany game is going to get ugly quick..Albany is struggling just to get off a shot.

[Guest Air Bisquit]

Albany down by 9 at half 35-26 to the Dukies

[king]

Wisconsin beating ole miss. The great Marshall Henderson is 1-11 so far.
