Yeah, said to the wife that I didn’t want Queen to get fouled, because I want the chance to win it at the end. Tough loss, but they came back from almost getting blown out, and lose at the end…again. All 8 of their losses by 6 points or less. I think they’re still no worse than a 4 seed, just hope they get a good bracket.
I said the same thing to my wife. I was concerned it was too early even if he did make them both. But I didn't actually expect Michigan to get a layup. So thankful this was not the game that matters. Interesting stat on their last 4 losses, kind of the opposite of the Commanders season but also shows they may be better than their record which is pretty damned good.
His freshman year was amazing, then he backed it up with player of the year as a sophomore. I think the fact that he had a long, but not stellar, NBA career, lessens his impact. He was a very good player, all star a couple of times, played forever, it seemed, but got traded many times, and was never thought of as one of the NBA’s best during his career. Good dude by all accounts.
That's my conclussion as well. Let's face it, as the first pick he was a bust, which surprised me. Lucas was a good pro and Lenny never got the opportunity. Michael Jordan's college career is overblown because he turned into the greatest player of all time in the NBA.
I'm really enjoying this. On the Maryland board I got a lot of flack for posting the BIG does not seem as strong this year. I made the comment by saying Maryland, who nobody saw as a Final Four contender a few weeks ago, could play with the top teams in the league. So to me i didn't see any really good teams at the top of the BIG as we usually see.
In a word, yes, the conference gets money for games won in the tournament. I believe it is then doled out to each member school on a sliding basis for how well each school did in the year.
