Yeah.

I hope they keep him. He's originally from less than 10 min from where I grew up at.

You should probably reconsider this thinking.

They are in dire need of Adrian Dantley right now.

How 'bout Orlando Woolridge? He was Louisiana HS player who enjoyed success in both South Bend and NBA.

P.S. I had 15 of 16 first day and it has been downhill since. Two OT losses by one point and where I picked lower seed to prevail, zip, notta, nuthin'... Good luck to leaders from midpack "hanger" here.

this one's surprising for me... out of all the brackets I have, the one on here is my absolute worst!

best one's got 38 points, but in another pool...oops... should've copied it.

one of my better brackets besides the fact that I picked ND to win it all (I thought they would be WSU, but was pretty sure that UNC would take em out but I thought what the hell). Had I picked ND to lose 3rd round to UNC I would have had UCLA winning it all and would probably be right in the runnings.

My best pick was villanova in the Sweet 16, worked out because I had my upset of Siena over Vanderbilt and then Nova over Siena in the 2nd round.

Also, Stephen Curry on Davidson can ball but he looks like a 12 yr old.

My best sheet had Wazzu, Davidson, Villanova, WV, and Mich St... along with the usuals that are still in (it's actually 1 pick better than the one I have in 11th place... 1 pick from 1st... in the local CBS pool for an all-inclusive trip to mexico).

It's been a great bracket season this year... in my pool (which 75 entered) only less than 15 have no shot for "in the money" payouts so far. You're absolutely right... tonight and tomorrow will make the picture clearer.
