    Wow- Nova - all could be back!

    I didn’t realize that only 6 years ago they finished 13-19. And ESPN are now calling them a dynasty, after beating UNC on a 30 foot prayer two years ago, got beat the following year in the second game of the tournament, then beat Michigan this year for the title. In my book that ain’t the stuff...

    Wow- Nova - all could be back!

    Is this still a Kentucky board? The hero worship of Villanova is nauseating. They won the title because other than WV they played nobody that had a chance of beating them in the East region. I only wish Butler could have played them again.

    One thing about Villanova

    The 2012 UK team was heads and shoulders better than this Villanova team. An all-star at every position. That season they set so many records you can’t keep count. The 2009 UNC team was better than this Villanova team. They averaged 88 points a game in the NCAA tournament, their opponents 68...

    Kentucky #3 in NBC top 25

    UNC has two studs coming in. Little and White. If both don’t start from day one Deputy Dog Williams should be fired. UNC will be better than Dook or Virginia. After tonight, of course Marathon Oil, I mean Villanova, will be ranked #1, but if Brunson leaves their gonna miss him big time.

    National Championship Game Thread

    Terrible title game, Michigan is terrible and Nova ain’t much better. Half their shots have been 3s. Looks like an AAU team playing. They remind of Marathon Oil. Bombs away.

    UNC blew out Michigan in late November. Maye had a field day.

    Michigan shot their wad in the first half. They had a chance, it’s over now. Nova wins by 20 or more. All the media will be proclaiming them as a great team and a DYNASTY. To that I say BS. Ask Butler how unbeatable they are.

    Blue bloods...

    In 2012 ESPN ranked the 50 greatest teams of the last 50 years. According to their criteria, which is kinda strange. I would have had UCLA, Kentucky, UNC, Kansas, Dook......... http://www.espn.com/blog/collegebasketballnation/tag/_/name/50-in-50-series

    Lefty Driesell to Hall of Fame

    I saw Pete play many times when he went to Raleigh Broughton HS. He’s was an even greater college player. I only got to see Len Bias on TV but he was also a great college player. Maravich, David Thompson and Bias were something special in college. Speaking of Lefty he used to talk about the...

    Is Zion just a wimp or what?

    A 6-6 player who weighs 260 pounds will be sucking wind the majority of the game. He needs to drop 40 pounds.

    Lefty Driesell to Hall of Fame

    Lefty’s teams at Davidson in the 1960s were very good. One of the best college players I’ve ever saw was Mike Maloy. Lefty also had some great teams at Maryland but his inability to beat NC very much drove him up the wall. His record vs Smith was 10 wins and 31 loses. In his 17 years at Maryland...

    I guess I will have to stop calling them chokehawks

    Dook was never a great team this year. A very average UNC team beat them twice and should have beaten them three times.

    Kansas vs Duke

    If Kansas has a player like Pinson who can break their zone down, then pass off for easy baskets Dook will not beat them. UNC beat Dook twice and should have beaten them three times. Theo Pinson was the main reason.

    Typical Dook win

    Bagley and Carter are OAD. You’ve seen the last of them after the final game, win or lose the title. For Dook to win it all this year would be a travesty because they are no way in hell the best team in the country, not even close.
