McDermott is in my good graces after the woke cancel culture tried to label him a racist for something dumb he said. Seemed like everyone around him cowardly feigned outrage. Still pisses me off.

Congrats to the cute little upstart midmajor. They gave it their all.
KU is garbage and any competent team with a pulse would’ve taken them down. Not impressed with them at all. They’ll succumb soon enough, despite the cakewalk bracket that was given to them.Deuces Valley.
... No really, deuces.

As a guy that watches and pulls for Creighton, they may have played their best basketball today, considering the circumstances. They lost their point guard four weeks ago, and Friday, lost their 7'1" rim protector. Their first off the bench 20 mpg guy has been out since late January with a hip injury. Slowly, their rotation shrank.
They played today with a six man rotation and no big. And they almost beat Kansas. The players they used today are not great, but McDermott has grown into a hell of a coach. The way he adapts his roster to situations and strengths is amazing. For eight years, they relied on offense, this year they became a defensive juggernaut. I know you guys despise Creighton, but they are nothing like the Dana Altman teams of old. McDermott doesn't put up with the P'Allen Stinnet type. All really good guys.There are three rules that I live by: never get less than twelve hours sleep; never play cards with a guy who has the same first name as a city; and never get involved with a woman with a tattoo of a dagger on her body. Now you stick to that, and everything else is cream cheese.

Originally posted by Kel Varnsen View PostBaylor received a 1 seed while playing in the toughest conference in the country where they won a share of the title and dealt with injuries the whole year. Then they get matched up with a UNC team who is crazy talented, but has underachieved all year. And play them while missing LJ Cryer.
But sure, they’ve been “exposed.”
The fact that UNC is in the Atlantic Coast Conference had absolutely nothing to do with where they finished in their conference? Right. Baylor's fortunate Manek didn't play the last 10 minutes of the game or you probably wouldn't have made an appearance. From where I was sitting UNC looks like they'd be the best team in the b12. If not them, then surely Duke or the Irish would be.

Memphis giving Gonzaga everything. Tie game but the Zags look frustrated.There are three rules that I live by: never get less than twelve hours sleep; never play cards with a guy who has the same first name as a city; and never get involved with a woman with a tattoo of a dagger on her body. Now you stick to that, and everything else is cream cheese.
