I'd say crying at losing your ONE chance to win an NCAA Tournament Championship--is justified.

Despite being EXTREMELY optimistic... Still no actual point guard! (I'd still take it and thank my lucky stars!)

First saw Brad Stevens up close at the Thanksgiving tournament in Anaheim, CA in 2009 when Tubby's Gophers beat his Butler Bulldogs in the first game. He led that team to the first of two consecutive NCAA Tournament finals and wound up coaching my beloved Boston Celtics... Warms my heart that...

Jahcobi Neath, 6'-3" PG, who played at Wake Forest for 2 years, is transferring to the Badgers. (from Madison.com)

I remember that Willis was considered a secondary ball handler when he was with us, but, to my amateur eye, he looked tentative bringing the ball up the floor and not effective as a distributor. To me, he would seem to be a plan C as a PG...

I'm in Madison and it is a very common complaint that Wisconsin kids have a hard time being admitted to the Flagship University. In WI, it is clear that the ratio of spots available to WI kids versus out-of-state, mostly from the Northeast kids, is affected by funding from the legislature...

Mother grew up dreaming of playing QB for the Gophers. Both of my parents were in grad school at the UM when I was born--also they were original Vikings season ticket holders... Got my first skating lessons from my daycare provider's sons, who eventually played hockey for UM. Moved to New...

That is one young man I would LOVE to have come back and play for us one more year--Huge heart.

Hate to rain on your parade, but Chet has been 'Warm' to the UM for more than a year. It's only polite.

Do we KNOW that interviews with Dutch and Medved were planned? Or was that our expectation?

1997 ... also Pitino's first season. I derived unreasonable joy from that NIT run.

How kind of you to think of the success and well-being of the Badgers program! I agree about the alienating effect of the evangelical vibe taking over a locker room, though.
