It's not a meltdown...I'm happy for VCU, they're a good team playing the best ball at the right time...that's just the way college basketball is today; it doesn't matter how your season went..just get in the tournament and play your best ball then. UCONN, Butler, and VCU...all had pretty sub-par regular seasons, and are now in a Final Four. If this is a meltdown, it's the most laxidasical (sp?) meltdown ever

Yep, everyone here just talks out of their asses to rationalize why their "best team" of choice choked, lol

Oh and great coaches don't lose to an 11 seed in the elite 8. Self got out coached and his team got outplayed.

So being happy for VCU and college basketball = trashing people from Southeastern Ohio. Got it. What do you do when you are upset about college basketball? smh.

Ok here is the part where he tells us how sweet his life is. Like clockwork...

Yes, my life is great....you live in Chillicothe, I realize you are going nowhere in life and get jealous of others enjoying life...it sucks, I know..but don't worry, maybe you'll pick up a chick tonight with some teeth in uptown 'Cothe?
Huh? Haha I don't live in Chilicothe. Nice guess though. Little sensitive aren't we? I would tell you what I really do and where I really live, but it isn't relevant. You are a joke

I don't blame it on coaching.
It was the missed free throws and threes.
If Kansas would have made half of those 13 or 14 misses from the stripe, the game is dramatically different.

Kansas took some awful shots in the 2nd half. Selby was non existent.

Seriously though, I do not have much of a problem with somebody being a bigger fan of another school for a different sport, at least when they are not conference rivals, but to cheer for a school in one sport and cheer against them in another doesn't make much sense to me.

Seems Bill Self got outcoached!!!! UK goes 2-17 from three pt range? A good coach would have told them to stop shooting three pointers. Right S&L?

I think it is safe to assume that if S&L is anything like his online persona, he probably got laughed out of that interview

Bilas and Dickie V have zero credibility for the foreseeable future
Dickie V lost his credibility a long time ago. Bilas is fine. He never said VCU couldn't win the tournament. He said they had not done what they needed to do to get in the tournament. He was probably right.

Not as cool as getting back from New York City and planning a trip to Hilton Head.

Both are more exciting than what I can offer, but it's funny to tell everybody all that is going in your life then turn around and mock somebody that did the same.

I have a friend who is an OSU football fan and UNC hoops fan. He was talking shit about OSU losing. Hes a major douche and I can't take him seriously when it comes to sports.
