Sad that Ohio State isn't even in the NIT. Matta has to have one season more at most

NIT with an epic troll job. Syracuse will be playing UNC Greensboro. If only it was in Greensboro.

The ESPN stuff annoyed me because it was essentially "Hours of Sucking ACC Dick...With Mild Tournament Analysis Added In". On ESPN, everyone was outraged Syracuse didn't make it in. Everywhere else: Points out their weak non-conference performance and lack of wins away from home. So yeah, what you posted is par for the course for their shows, as opposed to actual predictions/analysis.

After a while, it actually got kind of hilarious. When they have Boeheim on to complain about not getting in and he still sounded more reasonable and logical than most of the ESPN people when talking about it, that says a lot. Bilas was emphatically miffed and Dukie V was nearly in tears over them not getting in, lol.

I would love for Kent State to pull off the massive upset to watch him absolutely melt down.

In general I'm rooting for him to be ejected from a tournament game.

I just wish ESPN would stop giving the asshole air time.

He is annoying as hell. Which is a true shame, cause Lonzo seems like one of the nicer guys in the sport. And is quite as can be, especially for a guy who is as damn good as he is.

He's actually pretty harmless, he just comes off as a dick.

The way he talked about his wife, how he "picked her" because she was tall, athletic and hot and that he told her he needs "boys for a squad."

Of course, he had 3 boys...go figure.

MJ is like three hundo now it looks like. He would still probably beat LaVar Ball 11-0.

My bracket says UCLA wins it all. I cannot support this statement!

Rumor is Romar is getting fired tomorrow and Michael Porter Jr. (and his dad) are going to Missouri. Cuonzo Martin going to Missouri and probably will have a pretty stacked team.

Aren't there three Porter brothers? I would assume that means the other two will eventually end up at Mizzou also.

Yes. With how long Cuonzo lasted at Tennessee and California, I wouldn't be making too many guarantees though.
