    I think you will be hard pressed to find a TTU alum disappointed. After the Elite 8, everything was Money dipped in Gravy.

    At least law enforcement in Lubbock will have an easier night.

    It just felt like this was Virginia's time.. losing to a 16 seed then come back to win the championship. shrug* whatever.

    Someone write a screen play.

    Ralph Sampson has to be thrilled. I'm glad he got to be there and see his school win the championship, but I was rooting for Tech. What a tough loss.

    Yeah, he's a great coach and I'm happy for their program. But I wish they could have done it without that... Guy. So punchable.

    Great effort by Tech. Tough playing 5 on 8 though but allowing Guy to shoot hurt them.

    Not even mad. Hopefully a National Championship birth will get eyes on the program. Nobody wants to go to Lubbock and play. Beard got here with a dude that played down the street from the school and a bunch of cast offs. If he can get some real talent.

    Rough way to lose but glad the tourney is over.

    It really is a hard to watch brand of basketball.

    Yeah, If you have no dog in the fight, I can imagine this being tough to watch.

    I know where I went wrong: I took off my lucky shorts to vacuum the den and take out the trash at halftime.. This is on me.. Sorry. I'm not taking off my shorts When Rockets play OKC tomorrow. Promise.

    If I saw it right.... a TT defender flew in from weakside to defend a 2 point shot near end of regulation, only to have VA pass out to an open man to hit a 3 instead and tie the game ..... could not believe it.

    It was hard to believe that was fair, but at least it was close for 40 minutes.

    Terrible officiating..

    My cousin's husband's Dad passed away suddenly last week. I see them several times a year and he is a great guy. I know he wanted this one bad. Hopefully he did get a few hours from their run to escape his head a bit.
