Re: 3/1 | Saint Louis | 2:00PM (ESPNU)

Zero offensive vision today, whether it was Fatts on a Drive or Langevine and Harris on an offensive rebound they were going up 1 on 3 all day with guys sitting on the wing or in the corner. Those 3 guys were probably 4/20 in the paint excluding transition.

Over the course of the next several years, after accounting for all his expenses, it really is a large amount of money. Sure...

When a coach goes, I 100% support giving the recruit's a chance to change their mind. These are kids after-all, most of whom will not play basketball professionally, yet will be expected to essentially be a professional athlete for the next 4 years.

My theory heading in to the tournament was URI seed = 9 - Ws + L, if we lost the first one we are 9+1=10, we lose this game we are 9-1+1=9, win the whole thing and mayyybe we can get to 6 (9-3)=6.
