You couldn't possibly get through the regular season in one piece if you guarded teams 40 feet from the basket the way UConn did this tournament. If you want to claim this is what makes the regular season meaningless and the tournament a crapshoot, so be it. But, like any sport, the only fair way to crown a champion is square one team off against another in as fair a way as possible. March Madness does that better than any other format. UConn shut down the offenses of Michigan St, Florida, and Kentucky. It's not how you start, it's how you finish. - Jeff 2014 NCAA College Basketball March Madness | Pastime Discussion ForumsShare RecommendKeepReplyMark as Last ReadRead Replies (3) To: Jeffrey S.

It's amazing to think back and see how close they were in getting knocked out in Round 1 against St. Joe's. Their guard play was second to none and their defense was stifling. Napier's draft stock definitely rose due to the tournament. My only advise to Kevin Ollie and Napier is to invest the time in a public speaking class. They were painful to listen to after games. 2014 NCAA College Basketball March Madness | Pastime Discussion ForumsShare RecommendKeepReplyMark as Last ReadRead Replies (1) To: Kevin Podsiadlik who wrote (263) 4/8/2014 5:33:53 PM From: longnshort    of 289   I want to thank the academy, my parents, my agent.............oh wait wrong speech 2014 NCAA College Basketball March Madness | Pastime Discussion ForumsShare RecommendKeepReplyMark as Last Read To: Jeffrey S.

Newton who wrote (265) 4/8/2014 11:37:11 PM From: Jeffrey S. Mitchell    of 289   UConn men and women have been to a combined 13 national championship games. They are now 13-0 with the women's ninth title an hour ago. I've seen all of them. Tonight's win also is the third time the winner of both the men's and women's championship is from the same school, with UConn now doing it twice. In case anyone is wondering what Storrs, CT looks like, it's really a cow town. UConn itself is like its own city, but all around it is farmland. There's literally nothing to do save going for a nice jog in the fresh air. - Jeff 2014 NCAA College Basketball March Madness | Pastime Discussion ForumsShare RecommendKeepReplyMark as Last ReadRead Replies (2) To: Jeffrey S.
