    not really big 5, but philly related college basketball.  Drexel overcomes a 34 point deficit to beat Delaware (largest comeback in division 1 b-ball)

    So Villanova signed a dude that decommitted from Arizona and is likely a guy that was getting $150k? That seems like a really odd signing for Nova. Why associate yourself with him if there’s a good chance he won’t even be eligible?

    Penn gets in there although as a 16 seed.  Was kinda hoping Penn St. would make it also but didn't think they would.

    surprised but sounds like a mutual parting of the ways.  Not sure who LaSalle can hire though. How much can they pay a new coach if they are selling off Art works for money? 

    One name that is intriguing to me is Jeff Neubauer. I know Fordham has sucked (as they always do) but I have been impressed by his coaching there and he is a LaSalle alum.  Who else?  Joe Mihalich - would he leave Hofstra for there?  Billy Lange who is with the Sixers now and used to be a Nova assistant?  Going to be interesting to see.

    I know from a former another player that Legler wants the job. Not sure of his qualifications though.

    Good luck Juggler. Probably won't watch much of it because I expect another 22-4 start. Get this over with so LaSalle can hopefully hire Ashley Howard, again!
    Alright, alright, alright!

    Good luck! If Nova wins, I come in 2nd in my office pool, which does include a pay out! Plus I've hated Michigan ever since the Fab Five so please, please win.

    Officially nervous.


    Nobody is picking Michigan. All I'm seeing, everywhere, is Nova by double digits.


    I don't think I've ever been a fan of such an overwhelming favorite....like, in any sport....it's quite an unusual feeling.

    they were the best team all year and dominated in the tournament.  I was telling a friend last night they have turned into what Duke was into the 1990s. best program, players play harder than anyone else, best coach and asshole fan base. Only difference is Jay is a lot more likable and humble than Coach K was. What Jay has turned them into is amazing.

    Michigan State only has 2 tournament championships.

    You also forgot UCLA, the school that has the most championships.

    the only thing dumber than letting a 14-15 year old tweet is someone bringing up tweets from a 14-15 year old 6 years later.  I hate Nova but this Divencenzo tweet shit is ridiculous. should be a non-story but unfortunately this is the current world we live in.

    I know. I got a Yahoo notification on my phone this morning and I was like.... really?  This is what we're concentrating on? The University really didn't do any favors by releasing the "hacked account" statement, either.  Just brings more attention.
