It boggles my mind that Ja Morant was a zero star recruit - LOTS of schools missed out on him. He sure is fun to watch. From all appearances, seems like a good kid too.
OK folks - I know we're all sad and bummed, but here's what I plan on doing, IF you're interested, and really really bored. Starting Tuesday night, I will post "in-game" updates based on my bracket. Gonna run the whole thing as if it was real, see the movie "Possums" - who's in?
Trying to get my Friday scrub done, but the MVC isn't helping. I feel as though I can stay up to finish this thing - anyone interested in a late night/early morning bracket, or you want it tomorrow. There are a few decent changes. 100 likes and I stay up - GO
SDSU puts up a shot with 7 seconds, miss, mad scramble for the ball, ends up in Noah Locke's hands, 3 pointer from just inside the half court line..................GOOD - Florida advancing with a 71-68 win over SDSU.

That's it-I've officially graduated from physical and speech therapy, nothing else they can do for me, but they've given me tools, info and exercises to keep improving. Speech isn't all the way there yet, but getting better. Not 100%, nor will I ever be, be I'll be close-I hope

For the record, there are teams I have in that I don't want in, there are teams out that I don't want out, I'm simply trying to predict what the committee will do. Also, I still hate your team.
Anyone heard anything on the selection show this year? Here's hoping last years epic fail isn't under consideration, I still have nightmares about that debacle.
@NCAA
My virtual tourney might not have been some folks thing, but I had fun with it and I hope you did too. Thank you to all of the folks that supported me through this, it was a passion project and I have no regrets, here's hoping for the real thing next year!
Iowa's shot hits the back of the rim and bounces into Dayton's hands, final buzzer sounds, Dayton wins 75-73. Toppin and Garza each end up with 28 so the POY debate continues on.
I think it is both funny and sad that someone tags me in a post and I see all of the replies and about 90% are hateful and vile, good God people, if you have nothing nice to say, don't say anything, isn't that what we teach our kids?
FINAL 2020 bracket posted, IF the season ended today (it did) AND the tourney was going to be played (It's not) - so, I'm not wrong - thanks for the support to those who supported me,much appreciated.
Sweet!!! As of today, I am officially "locked" for this year with
@usatodaysports
- 7th year - wow - thanks everyone for your continued support - even the haters - you know who you are
My biggest complaint about this years tournament - it's not during my kids spring break, so I have to get up early to get them to school....AND...stay sober for pick-up

Kinda cool - my wife's Philly cheesesteak place, in DeSoto, TX, catered
@KeithUrban
and his crew tonight for their concert at the
#AmericanAirlinesCenter
in Dallas - she's thrilled, closer options were available - but they chose her!!
Just a reminder, when you look at my bracket and want to yell and cuss me, just remember, I’m trying to project what the committee will produce on Sunday, NOT telling you what I think it should be. That seems to be lost on a few folks.
I can't say it enough - THIS IS DUMB - DO NOT RUIN A GOOD THING!!! THERE IS NO NEED FOR CHANGE!!
@NCAA
Retweet if you agree - c'mon hoops fans, tell them to reveal this the right way.
Please remember folks, I'd say that 99% of the
#bracketologists
out there are trying to figure out what we think the committee will do, not what we think should happen, most of us have been doing this for a while - we may hate your team but we try to be fair
I'm going to check my results again, but right now it looks like I picked 67 of 68 (WSU over Louisville is my only miss) and I got 65 of 68 exact or within 1, not too shabby - especially since I didn't use my own metric. Bad misses were Missouri and San Diego St - I flipped them
Not trying to brag, oh hell, yes I am. Here are my seats for Saturday’s
@KUHoops
at
@BaylorMBB
game. Sometimes friends come through. I’m beyond pumped for this!!
Wish me luck tomorrow folks, I'm only doing this to hopefully fill the sports void - that's it, if you enjoy it, GREAT, if not, understood, it's all IN FUN. 16 games tomorrow and Friday....I got this.
Time to cut it out with the political posts, the ads have stopped on tv, let them stop on here too. College hoops starts in 2-1/2 weeks for goodness sake!!!
I'm shocked by Beilein's decision to go to the NBA/Cavs - he just seems more like a teaching coach and suited to a tee to be a college coach - not sure how he will handle the egos the NBA offers.
Just a quick shout-out and well wishes to my fellow
#bracketologists
- the legit ones. Here's hoping you don't stink as much as me, haha - it's been a fun year fellas. Keep it up
#SelectionSunday
#MarchMadness
Doesn't matter, Winston misses, Kansas is your National Champion with a 75-73 win over MSU - this has got to go down as the best virtual NCAA Championship game EVER!!!!! Congrats
@KUHoops
fans , don't burn too many cars or couches
HI EVERBODY!!! I posted a bracket, the same one I turned into USAT for their (our?) preseason preview. No hating this early, wait til January when we know who is good but I refuse to acknowledge them cause I HATE YOUR TEAM!!! BOOM!!
It is done, 2019-20 bracket posted, I'm sure this is 100% accurate because I haven't had too many beers just yet. As always, I still hate your team. Bring on college hoops!!! ...in case you forgot
One thing to remember when it comes to bracketing folks, the rules say, quite clearly in fact, that there must be 68 teams in the tourney, as painful as that might be this year, there will be a few undeserving teams simply to satisfy this rule.
Looking over my preseason bracket for this season - whew
2 - UNC, Fla
4 - Memphis, UVA
5 - Purdue, Baylor
7 - Iowa St, Cincy
11 - Dayton
Others considered: Butler, San Diego St., Illinois, Penn St., W. Virginia, BYU
Predictions are fun - lol
Don't tell my doc, but over the next 4 days, there will be a large amount of unhealthy snacks consumed...and maybe a few adult beverages.

You'd think being married to me almost 14 years that my wife would have picked up a little hoops knowledge....she just asked if Selection Sunday was tomorrow, I just stared at her, she said, duh, it's today.
#fail
I think the folks bad mouthing Andrew Luck for retiring at 29 are probably a bit jealous they aren't or weren't able to do it like he did. Good luck to you sir!!!
Quick reminder, my bracket is not saying how I think things should go, but rather how I think the committee will see things. Remember that when you start name calling. Unless you just don’t like me, then it’s fair!
And that's the final horn, Garza was just too much for the Blue Devils today - FINAL 74-65 Iowa - revenge for '92? no, none of these players were even born then, but everyone else who was probably feels pretty good right about now. Up next - NOVA
LOL - announcer on Utah State at Florida - Whoever wins this game, it will go on their resume come March.
Shit, really? I bet it goes on the losers resume too.
Assuming I get motivated, expect an updated bracket sometime today, just to keep some of you off my back. I don’t expect you to keep quiet, you know who you are...can’t please everyone. I still hate your team!!
Nothing like being woken up really really early to the sound of a kid puking...shrimp...all over the couch...which looks like it will need to be replaced - cushions are attached, no removing and washing them - blah - Anyways, today's bracket now posted.
So it looks like my wife is leaving me - I'm sure no one is surprised by this. But what may surprise you is she's planning on coming back - she's going to Michigan for 5 days in July, why? I'll never know. Why is she coming back? Well duh. look at me, I'm sexy and I know it!!!
