Day 2

Let me get right to the point. Georgetown is a fraud year in and year out. Given that John Thompson II only won one title over all the years he roamed and intimidated the sidelines with the talent he acquired on a yearly basis it's no surprise his kid, John Thompson III has no freaking clue what he's doing. My problem is I get hooked every year on picking these sorry saps to advance in my bracket and every year I get hosed by the Hoyas. The Princeton offense needs to be kicked out the door.

I am exuberant though over the early departure of the Wisconsin Badgers. I hate there style pure and simple. Slow and slower. Isn't it time for Bo-ball to be extinguished.

Nortre Dame needs a makeover and I'm not talking about the players. They simply need to tell Adidas to stuff those neon green uniforms. You are a great school with a great athletic tradition and you do not need any gimmicks. The Yankees don't break out new uni's at playoff time.

I need to give a shout out to the A-10. They have been dominate so far. As a Xavier alum, I'm proud of what our conference has accomplished even though it's sickening we aren't in the tourney.

UCLA is another flawed program that needs a makeover. I think that's coming rather quickly with Ben Howland being shown the door.

One last thing and it's about style. So called expects like to say the NBA is a players league and college basketball is about coaches. I would hope to think that after watching teams like Florida Gulf Coast that it is all about the players and their love of the game. Basketball at it best is meant to be played fast.
