anyone want the Jax U HC job?

Apply for it. You will get a nice rejection letter that you can frame and put on your wall.

If I were on unemployment, I would so apply for that job just as one of my required applications per week

Who do you have tonight?

For my bracket's sake I'm pulling for Florida, SDSU and Wisconsin, but I think Baylor is going to give Wisconsin fits and Zona takes care of the Aztecs.

How did none of his other jobs not verify his degree at Kentucky, yet South Florida does? Just doesn't make sense...

[Cnasty]

Tonight is the do or die for my bracket.

If Wisky and SDSU pull through I look very good. They go down, bracket watching is over.

[The_Niddler]

I am rooting for:
Arizona, Wisconsin and Florida.
The bottom of my south Bracket is screwed...Dayton and Stanford, I had neither coming this far.

I want Dayton to win that one though.

Anyone else hating the start times?

If I'm not mistaken, South Florida is a state school, which means mandatory background check. Wouldn't have needed one at UofL (where he was brought on by Pitino, who had a relationship w him). The other spots prior to Manhattan were assistant jobs, didn't require a degree. The onus falls more on Manhattan for not checking.

It wouldn't surprise me if someone ratted him out, though.

Interesting to hear that he is calling Kentucky and making it public that he is contacting them about it. Trying to make it seem like the issue is on records at Kentucky...These guys are always the victims, never their own fault...

Well he is claiming that we messed up.

Dunno about you guys, but when I graduated, I got this thing called a diploma. Even if you don't walk, it gets mailed to you.

Most coaches tend to have theirs posted on their walls.

Interesting that he didn't know that he didn't have one.

Need sdsu to do their part now!

This Anderson kid on ucla is fun to watch and great size.

[uf83198]

UCLA's size giving Fla match-up problems. Chris Walker (6'10) is helping out by giving us quality minutes that we dont normally get from him. Still with that said, up by 6 at the half. With the way this game is being called, fouls are going to dictate this game in the 2nd half.

As far as start times, doesnt seem right to put a start time at 10:15 in a game with an east coast team vs a west coast team. But its prob fine for the players, the fans are the ones that struggle with it. Looks like it will be video day tomorrow for my classes.

Coach K: http://espn.go.com/mens-college-basketb ... more-years

"Yes, we could play defense better, but fundamentally the thing that we missed was on-court leadership play after play," Krzyzewski said.

Coach K also voiced his unhappiness Wednesday with ACC officials after no conference officials backed him up when he said that more conference teams should have made the NCAA tournament when bids were announced this month.

"I won't be doing that anymore," Krzyzewski said. "I am not going to do that again because I get all the stuff and nobody has my back. It's funny to you. But you're not the ones [hearing], 'He's an idiot. I hate him. He's low-level.'

"The only thing I said is I love my conference and I think this is better. And that's not happening again unless other people are doing it.

Seems to contradict himself in that leaders dont wait for others

[shel311]

Yea. So if a player displays on-court leadership but nobody follows him, does that mean the player should stop until others do it?

[Weasel]

Ha my thoughts exactly. I read through it the first time and thought, waaaaaaaait a second...

[Cnasty]

Dont fuck this up tonight Sparty. I need you to bring home the title!
