Has there ever been a more repulsive Final Four?

Just proves its easier to win when you don't play by the rules. Kentucky, Cuse, UNC.... Same types of teams year after year. NCAA will be now sending them a big check.

Don't be so sure, our sainted colleague Notre Dame is still in it, and still can win it.

Odd that so many people are celebrating a religious holiday today when it's clearly apparent that there is no god. How "clearly apparent" is it?

If Syracuse somehow makes it to the title game - I vote for the nuclear option.
DFW - get out of Texas.

Well, the NCAA will likely get what it deserves: a final four with 2 schools that participated in 2 of the worst academic frauds in NCAA history. And none of the shills on CBS/TNT will utter one word about it. To be fair, Seth Davis did an interview with Roy Williams and the head of the NCAA in the pregame about the UNC academic fraud. Not shockingly, Kenny Smith avoided saying much, but Barkley and Clark Kellogg were pretty harsh. Not sure if they'll do any more on it, but it was better than anything you'd get on ESPN.

In the smallest silver lining, I think we just saw Boeheim's last win. If he doesn't walk away now, he's a bigger fool than I thought. He can stay around another year or two and get forced out, or he can leave now while he can still give everyone the finger. I don't think we'll see him on the sidelines next year.

As for the broadcast talking about fraud, there will be none of that during the FF. Too many in the tank serving the cash cow.

He'll announce it in time in next couple seasons so they can open the Dome up to everyone in this dreaded town to make an attendance record that can't be taken off his tainted resume. I just expect everyone on this board to be at the game at the Dome next season to bring the Hoya noise.

WTF? I turned off the Cavs-Orange game at halftime because I thought it was a done deal. A double digit deficit to Virginia at the half is like a death sentence to the opposing team. Usually. What happened?

What happened? UVA was up 14 with about 8 minutes left, and then Syracuse started pressing. UVA could not execute a bunch of 2 on 1 breaks, turned it over, and Syracuse went on a 25-4 run. UVA completely melted down. This one is going to leave a serious scar.

Just goes to show you how intangibles such as confidence and motivation can be the difference between a horrible season and a great one when dealing with 18-22 year olds.
The lack of truly amazing individual talent and dominant teams this season and in this tourney has allowed teams with chemistry and leadership to flourish.
Somewhere in Louisville, Richard Pitino is plotting his comeback with an army of speedy guards and pogo stick forwards.
