Here's a question: Why do we have Seth Greenberg talking about getting into the NCAAs when he has shown many times he has no idea how to get a team there? Ouch!

NIT note - With Lexington an NCAA site, Robert Morris gets a home game against Kentucky.

It is really a commentary on how limited Calipari must be as an actual basketball coach. He is a talent-assembler. When he fails at that aspect--and he is one of the very best at selling his programs--he has no answers. There is a very long list of coaches who could have taken UK's talent this season and done good things with it. Cal isn't one of them.

Gottlieb says Florida doesn't deserve 2 seed and says sec sucks. Then he says they will beat gtown and Kansas to go to final four. Don't take this personally Jester, but Gottlieb = you. He's a court jester if ever there was one.

You guys should save yourselves the trouble. Most analysts will not be high on us. I bet according to most, we are the most vulnerable 2 seed, the most likely to lose in the first round, the most likely not to play to our seeding. I like watching the coverage, but honestly, as soon as they start talking about us, I change the channel. There is no way they know as much about our team as we do.
My favorite comment so far was Clark Kellogg being high on FGC. Do you think Kellogg watched any of their games this season?

At least with respect to the first two rounds, I don't think I would have taken any other combo of games assigned to the other 1 and 2 seeds. Nice draw.
No excuses.
Please make the Sweet 16 this year. Please. Please. Please...

I thought that might have been the case going in, but I have seen very little negative comments on the Hoyas and their chances. I have seen lots of pick for Sweet 16 and Elite 8, and even some Final Four. Coverage has been favorable. It seems everyone realizes this team is a tough out, and the difference is Otto and a great D.

I just got back up off the floor -- earlier this morning on Comcast SportsNet, Gary Williams picked the Hoyas to go to the Final Four. Can anyone confirm what I think I saw and heard? Kiss of death?
