Good news guy. Looks like this took us from #9 to 8 on kenpom.com. I guess we actually did belong in the Elite 8 afterall. Obviously the Final Four is a real stretch; and we'll have to see how this week shakes out and if we're actually allowed to play next week or if it's Nova, UVA, Duke and Cincy like it ought to be.

So awesome when you overachieve. So shitty when you don't. That is what makes this tournament so fun, and so annoying all at the same time. Malik Newman has GUTS. Kid came in with a reputation as not being a team guy, perhaps locker room cancer. Which was unfair, but that was the general stigma. He's always had a great attitude on the court, and now he's completely bought in and Bill Self now trusts him. [Reply]
