Day 2 NCAA Tournament

[Blue Heaven]

What a game!

[Blue Heaven]

Nevada perfect in overtime and takes down Texas. It's Nevada's first tourney win since Mark Fox was their coach.

Nevada/Texas was the best game I've seen so far in the tournament.

And it's just a slight pleasure, but it pleases me that Trae Young and Mo Bamba are both going to be sitting at home this weekend.

What a game!

This has been a good tournament so far. More importantly, my wife and I are tied in our brackets. We've both got 19 of the first 24 games correct. We've been together nine years and I have never beat her and I have watched more basketball today than she has in those nine years...

And Ayton. Specifically Bamba and Young though because you get the feeling the committee put them in because of those two guys.

Is Shaka Smart t he most overhyped, overrated coach ever?

In 3 years....23-31 in his conference....ZERO NCAA wins

The Buffalo coach said he wanted to clarify his statement about Cal whining...and then kind of doubled down on the comment.

I like it. Anything for the bulletin board.

But listen...I like Cal and all, but that coach isn't wrong, lol.

Funny how the ones who don't know much are usually the bracket kings. On a side note, TBS had to cut short Nevada's coach in the locker room after he dropped an F Bomb on live TV lol!

That was quite the language they just put on national TV...

I counted four of them!

Heck no he isn't wrong but you still don't give any ammo to the opponent. "We are the youngest team, like, ever!"

Like Crean living off of Wade, Smart has been living off of VCU in the Final Four after being in the play in game.

Yes on both points. We REALLY needed Bamba this year but if we had gotten Young then I'd doubt we have the team we have now.

I heard a weird thing about Shaka Smart.

My friend went to an academic conference once and there was a professor from VCU there. The guy said that after Smart left Texas, VCU wanted to use "Havoc" as its motto. Well, they couldn't...because Smart had trademarked it and was taking it to Texas with him. To my knowledge VCU still can't use it, but oddly Texas doesn't really press much, probably because they always have seven centers.

WOW...that Texas-Nevada game was a dandy.....I kept waiting for Murray state to make a run to beat West Virginia and it never happened
