oelman, just realized that it was Coach Brey that lost his mother just before their game. My condolences to Irish Nation!
Michigan st got beat by Texas Southern during the season. I'm proud of how MSU has rebounded from that loss and now in sweet 16.
Okafor doing work for Duke. Might not happen, but Okafor vs Towns in a Duke - UK national championship matchup would be fun to see.
I see him as a Tyson Chandler type. Not a star but far from a scrub. His size and mobility make him a defensive anchor.
What a great game it was! Pat Connaughton's leadership was astounding. Stevie from the right corner is money, Jerian is consistent and clutch, and DJax is oh so crafty. Hopefully we can do something special for Coach Brey, because even though we haven't had much tournament success I gotta say that he's kept us very competitive throughout the years playing in the BEST conferences (old Big East and the current ACC).

Yessir, absolutely. I like our chances against Wichita State, an Elite 8 appearance would be huge for Bray. Always thought he was underrated and overshadowed by the other 'great' coaches in the conference when the teams he was putting together with less athleticism and talent were equally impressive.
Just look at the coaches left standing: Coach K Roy Williams Pitino Izzo Huggins Sean Miller Gregg Marshall ... Usually I fill out my brackets just according to coaches, but noooo, I had to buck my trend this year. LOL.
