Well, good ole 3 G coached a terrible game today. Shamet crapped himself - what a turnover machine in the second half and especially in the last several minutes of the game.

Wow. Nobody has posted about the UVA game? History folks. I wasn't even watching and Twitter started blowing up with about 7 minutes left in the game.

Congrats to UMBC!

Now . . . how is the NCAA going to make sure this never happens again??

Had it on the 32”. It graduated to a 55” in the 2nd half. Gotta have 5 TVs in the living to monitor all, including IHSA.

Nice to see UMBC eff up the NCAAs precious tourney script.

Go Retrievers!

This was completely amazing to watch. Not only did they win, they won in extremely impressive fashion. Definitely going to be rooting for the retrievers the rest of the tourney.

Go Retrievers!!

This is what the tourney should be about. Somebody has got to stop the NCAA from trying kill this kind of excitement for the benefit of their powerful few.

If I had to guess, they’ll start by reconfiguring the First 4, so that ALL 16 seeds must play games in Dayton to advance, and then play the noon game on either Thursday or Friday. Make sure they are all tired, and compress travel and prep time as much as possible. And give the #1 seeds one last opportunity to scout.

I thought the same after the Virginia couldn't Retrieve a victory.

I will always hate that fat little bastard for his (and Nance's) disgusting temper tantrum on set because the Valley got 4 teams in one year. Stomping around crying like little girls.

I'm very happy that he is where he is.
