Selection Sunday

All talk of dessert is relative. Did we deserve it? No. Did we deserve it more than MTSU? Absolutely.

Do or die next season. I have a lot more confidence than I did for the same thing in football, but I'm still a bit nervous.

 

I'd have a hard time giving a shit about the NIT right now.

 

going on spring break with the family and i have zero concern about finding a tv. Pretty sad. Very disappointed in what I saw Friday and we sowed what we reaped today with lack of focus and intensity too often. We have multiple SEC plyr of the weeks, we have 1st and 2nd team all SEC players. That should have been enough to get it done, imo.

 

That is also subjective. Obviously, the committee didn't think that way. I can't fault them for that. I agree about next season. This year was pretty much a carbon copy of last year. This can't happen again with Maymon back. Maybe a point guard will show up more than half of the time too.

 

Per Wes Rucker's Twitter:

 

I'll need more than "sounds like" to believe that entirely. But it is very possible that Ole Miss made that game irrelevant.

 

Yeah, just fuel to the committee fire.

 

When Tennessee doesn't get in I never care. My golf game greatly improved the Buzz years.

 

Well, I guess I'll be using my hockey tickets on Tuesday and Thursday night this week. To hell with Florida and New Jersey!

 

And, go Canes! Florida should provide some relief from getting their asses whipped by every team in the division. Carolina could have run away with it by now if they played better in the division.

 

i'll just focus all my anticipation on my italian invasion to come

 

Don't I know it? That game against Washington was really depressing. Girl in front of me was wearing a Ducks sweater and cheering for the Caps. Was pretty quiet until the Canes came out dead flat in the second.

Really need a win in MSG tomorrow and then beat the teams below them on Tuesday (Panthers) and Thursday (Devils). I'll be at those two.

 

I think Italian Invasion was one of Sly Stallone's first films

 

Yeah. I thought that game was in the bag after dominating the Caps in DC and then going up 2-0 in Raleigh. The game against Tampa Bay was just a poor effort. Maybe they hit up too many strip clubs when they got there. I am still mystified that the Thrashers are keeping pace.

 

Yeah, every time Carolina gets on a roll, they play a couple bad games and Atlantapeg somehow catches up. I wish all the games were against teams from Ontario.

 

Jay Bilas just got all up in the grill of the committee

La Salle, MTSU and St. Mary's have four Top 50 wins, combined. UVa has six, by itself. Tennessee has three. Maryland has three. UK has four.

 

I liked the end of year push and McRae finding more of an offensive game. And I just like Cuonzo as a guy. They only have themselves to blame by I still feel bad that they were improving and fell short.

 

We're going to be a 27 seed in the NIT.

 

We're not even an NIT one seed. lol
