March Madness 2009

It didn't matter. Michigan State could have played their best game ever while UNC just played an average game and they still would have lost. The only team that could have won or lost that game was UNC. If UNC had come out and played a real stinker than anyone could have beaten them.

Disagree.  After the opening run State played them even, and that's while committing, what, 20 turnovers?

That happens in blowouts. It's very hard for the team in the lead to maintain focus and determination when the end result is already apparent. The team in the lead tends to get sloppy and start to make bad decisions and take chances. Which is why sometimes you have miracle comebacks because it's hard to regain that focus and determination once you let it go.

Of course, that didn't happen here.

Hehe, this is hilarious:

Hi there coach! I think it's a little sad, speaking as a XU fan, we weren't the first to post on your fan page ) We LOVE you and think you are a perfect fit for Xavier. You make us so very proud to be a part of such a top notch program. It is because of YOU we have such a high graduation rate. It is because of YOU we are highly respected in the... Read More A-10 conference. It is because of YOU there are so many XU proud and strong. We want you and only you to coach our Muskies to the Final Four next season and beyond. Thank you for an excellent job Coach Miller.

I posted earlier how proud I was as a Xavier fan to have Miller as a head coach. BUT he has turned into a liar, out for money, fame and leaving a dust trail behind him. Good riddens to you Miller. I DO NOT wish you well. You have screwed us over, after saying you were staying. You down right lied, like Thad Matta did, and you do not even care?!?!

Arizona, good luck with this one. I bet he'll be there for 2 seasons until something better comes along.

I am always amazed people get that upset when somebody in sports gets a better job.  I mean...it is this man's career not his religion.

Even though our beloved republic will have to put up with more Timmay style bandwagoneering with the Tarheels, at least the fucking Spartans lost.

I despise Penn State and Michigan State. Any other Big Ten team would get at least an "attaboy" out of me.

Those two can go to hell. Plus I'm trolling a bit. There is chum in the water.

Its really hard to keep up the same intensity when you are blowing someone out.

You served on the Indianapolis, didn't you?

Hopefully this will be the trigger to get the NCAA to butt-fuck the school's entire cheating athletic department.

Holy fuck, and to think we tried to hire that asshat. Christ. Talk about dodging a bullet.
