-All season, Nevada played like those teams Pitino/Tubby used to play in 90's exhibition games....teams like "California All-Stars", "Nike Elite", "EA Sports", etc....groups of guys who were D-1 talent, but played like they were at the Dirt Bowl.
-Still a great announcer, but Kevin Harlan seems to have slipped a bit. Lots of uncharacteristic mistakes last night.
-Some Rivals writer lobbing Gregg Marshall's name as a candidate at Vandy. Good grief.
-We're all done with those Spike/Chuck/Samuel L. commercials, right? The novelty has worn off. All three are likable enough guys, but you have to, you know, give them something to actually SAY.
-Jon Rothstein is gonna Jon Rothstein all over everything, and I like the guy the rest of the year, but he's at his worst during the tournament. Those forced "Region of _______" monikers he gives each corner of the bracket are like nails on a chalkboard. And his nuggets have virtually no bearing on the actual game that will be played. "As a child, Buzz Williams' family often visited Six Flags St. Louis while visiting relatives on summer vacations. Huge matchup against the Billikens today in the REGION OF MELANCHOLY".
