    I’m in 2nd place in the bracket with plenty of points still on the board. Illinois is the only team to really screw me.

    Garza won’t be drafted. I’ve seen plenty of slow footed bigs that killed it in college who just didn’t have the speed for the NBA game.

    Just saw the Pilot's are hiring Eastern Washington's head coach to replace Porter.

    Kind of a lateral move for that coach.

    That could explain the swag but not inferior Covid tests or letting players go hungry.

    Syracuse guard Tiana Mangakahia had just completed her junior year when she was diagnosed with Stage Two breast cancer, a shock for a healthy young woman with no family history. She had to undergo double mastectomy and chemo, but never missed class and attended every game in street clothes. In February 2020 she was declared cancer free and medically cleared to play. Then everything shut down. Finally she's in NCAA. Syracuse handled first round opponent easily. Their reward is a date with UConn. Is it hokey to say she's a winner regardless of the outcome of the game?

    Lynn Holzman should not have let that happen. She's NCAA/VP of women's college basketball and she should have been aware of the discrepancies she can effect. She will learn from this.

    Not at all! My daughter early thirties had the same surgery and some because of the prominent brca gene. Her mother and two aunts dies in their 40's/50's.

    At last night's excuse for a game, Blazers announcers mentioned Oregon State men winning their game but ignored Oregon State women winning. MCPs.
