Never knew Marcus is Al's younger brother.

I'm sold if you and lsbf like Brogden that much but history seems to me to point to the draft likely passing him by.

I hear ya. There have been a lot of real good 23 year old shooting guards in college that don't make it in the NBA.

Thank you to UNC nation for getting my bracket off of the bottom of the table.

Watching my bracket has been like watching Mo Peterson's three point heave swish the nets... "Not possible!!!!"

For the record. I don't like progressively scored brackets.

I've always felt that total wins predicted was a better measure... Of course, there is an element of sour grapes here.

What a really great ending to a topsy-turvy March Madness season.

Congrats to 'Nova nation.

And with that, let's unsticky this thread.

Whoooooo! Won the group, and the guy who hit the game winner went to my high school. Go Gonzaga, beat DeMatha!

I went to school at Villanova and I watched the game at a local bar. It was crazy!
