First on the list.....WOJO.....the floor slapping, Coach K wanna-be, I'll tell you "why not us" Marq. coach.......this ain't tabacco road.........The NBE is where Nova rules the roost!!!!! See ya next yr........tell Coach K to send help.......

Man is kelly going to come out smelling like a rose.......IMO better then mccoy and Gore.......To me this can only mean that the cowboys are going to try to get Peterson at all costs....I think they have already tampered with him....I will be real surprised if they don't try to trade for him and I hope they sacrifice their future and the Vikes fleece them like they did to the Vikes when Jimmy Johnson traded hershel walker......
Cannot imagine the cowboys letting murray walk then waiting till peterson's contract is up/....The Vikes are not going to release Peterson.

"Slobering" over Archie in this post-game interview.

A bad team in Florida St is making a game of it with Virginia, 39-34............I want to be a #1 seed but there is a part of me that wants to be a #2 seed with UVA as a 1........we would absolutely crush them.

Villanova's 17 3's: 51 points.
Marquette total: 49 points.

'Nova could have missed every 2-point shot today and won!

I'd say so.

Good lord.

My two buddies got screwed over with meeting and can't come. I have 4 seats and using 2 seats, would love to give the other 2 to someone on here to root us on.

Michigan is absolutely smoking Illinois in the 2nd half, up 22........Illinois was on the bubble and needed this W while Michigan needs to win the entire tourny..........really surprised that Illinois laying an egg like this with so much on the line against a team that has been decimated by injuries and early entries to the pros.

I was awake from 1-4 am last night....thinking about the season and the enjoyment we have been provided.... What an awesome team and program.... I have so many great memories starting from fall 1989 and I think the wonder of following villanova basketball is in part because of the rock solid community of people with whom I've had the pleasure of meeting and getting to know......

And the quality of basketball is and has been outstanding....

Two losses!!! Good mercy!!

I think we are in for a big long ride this postseason... I'll share a few great experiences and memories. Playing Shaq 1990 NCAA's...beating Princeton 1991....winning 94 NIT...rocking NYC with all of you and my father....95 Kittles dunk.... Nashville sweet 16 weekend....Minny BC win.... Blowing up Boston in 2009.....

Looking forward to this month with you!!!

This team is ready for the big run....

Go cats!!!!!

Game chat

Duffy's at PGA and US1....anybody in or will you be on the beach?

It will be difficult to root for the Irish but the less ACC in, the better.

Last night Pitt's bubble burst. Usually I don't find enjoyment in the misery of others. However, this one did bring a little smile to my face. Nice to see Pitt and Cuse had their season's end before March 15. Luckily their fans can wrap themselves in a brand-spanking new ACC blanket, curl up to the fire and enjoy another 4 weeks of hoops. If they are feeling frisky in the Burgh, next week come on out and watch some hoops.

Let me know.

Assuming the hammer falls harder in Chapel Hill than it did in Syracuse, how deeply will this impact UNC's program? I suppose you're in deep sh*t when a three page thread on your board is entitled "Is the academic mess really destroying the program?"

Naturally, their chief concern is the apparent fall-off in recruiting. There's a lot of concern about "negative recruiting" by all the competing coaches. I have to believe that is definitely happening. Brings back old memories, doesn't it? It really makes you appreciate the track Jay has VU on right now. Reading the Duke board, they are ready to step on UNC's neck.

It's hard to fathom that two out of the three best teams in the ACC are going to be fundamentally neutralized over the next 4 - 5 years due to sanctions. That is going to benefit some lucky conference - hopefully, the Big East.

If our conference makes good use of this post season, I think we (and especially Villanova) have a huge opportunity that could be unfolding in our laps.

Hottest trending team in the country right now: Villanova.

Villanova -13.5 over Marquette
GTown -7.5 over Creighton
Butler -1.5 over Xavier
Providence -1.5 over St. John's


I am a little surprised with Providence being a slight favorite over the Johnies, personally I would prefer playing St John's int he semis. Their lack of depth really hurts them against a team like Nova, add on the fact that they would be playing another tough game in 24 hours if they beat Providence. I think GTown and Nova both win by about 15, St John's wins a one possession game that goes down to the buzzer and Butler wins by about 5-6 over Xavier.

Took a little drive to to Sam and Parkland take on Pennsburry. Game was pretty close in the first half, but Pennsburry blew it open in the second half to take the win. Pennsburry has two D-1 players. Parkland has a young, but very talented team.

Iorio did not show much in this game. Pennsburry has a six foot eight center, Derrick Woods (St.Boneventure) who shuts down everything inside. So, Sam was not able to get anything in the lane. Can Jones (Rider) is six foot one and guarded Sam all night and shut him down.

As I said, Sam Iorio did not shoe anything special, finished with two points, five rebounds, on 1-5 shooting. He is a good shooter and has a nice little dribble game. Again, he is a 2017 recruit and has a long ways to go. Seeing him play before, I will not be shocked if he ends up in the top 150 lists by time he is a senior. I am not overreacting to this game, but thought I would report it.

I misplaced the email -- anyone have location?

thanks

In case anyone in Alexandria, VA wants to watch the game with fellow Villanova fans.....we are gather at Clyde's on Beauregard Street of the Mark Center office complex. Can not get to DC for the "official" game watch location.....but putting the option out there to those who work in Alexandria, VA (Seminary Road and I-395).

I will start off by saying I love what you do here, but I was a little surprised to not see anything on the front page about Arch being named Big East co-POY as well as Jay being named COY. I usually hate it when people b!tch to the moderators about trivial things, so I may in fact get ripped for this post, but I do not believe those two announcements are trivial.

FTL. I am no fan of Willard's, but this crosses the line IMHO.

Petition

Listening to Sirius last night and a caller (probably someone on this board) raised the issue of Villanova not getting enough press relative to the other contenders. Frischilla acknowledged and prefaced his comments by saying "I need to be careful here because I get paid by the Worldwide Leader" but it's true. He then posited that it was because FoxSports1 was new and developing. Packer then commented that it was also true and unfair, but Foxsports1's other content was "abysmal" and suggested the lack of crossover market (motorcross/UFC/nascar) was the reason - I inferred that, but I thinks it's a fair inference.
I thought it was refreshing for Frischilla to say what he did, and also provided further evidence that ESPN management takes this personally.

so wait. These guys still haven't figured out their issues?


I will not be getting any bet games?

Awful.
