gangreenman Posted March 27, 2009 Share Posted March 27, 2009 The Big East has a great shot at getting three teams into the Final Four. Actually, I'd be shocked if they did not get at least 3. UConn should handle Missouri. Louisville is much better than anyone in their bracket. Obviously they'll get one out of the East. If Gonzaga knocks off Carolina and Syracuse can get by Oklahoma. They might make it 4/4. In that case they may as well move the Final Four to MSG. Man would that be great for the popularity of college basketball. After the craziness of the BET at the Garden a few weeks ago, imagine a part II. Not only that, but Uconn and Lville would have to play (which they didnt in the BET), and same goes for Pitt/Nova vs. Syracuse. More people than ever will probably just tune in to those games just because of the history of it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt39 Posted March 27, 2009 Share Posted March 27, 2009 Maybe this will finally get Coach K to get off of his "Im gonna only recruit unathletic Nantucket looking white dudes and show I can win with them" and actually start bringing in some real talent. Sadly, Greg Paulus career is over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sadly, Greg Paulus career is over. Paulus would have been better off playing QB at Nore Dame. Terrible recruiting by Duke in the past few years. You can't win a championship by relying on three's. You need a big man down low that can make plays. Duke is soft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Borgoguy Posted March 27, 2009 Share Posted March 27, 2009 Ah! One of my favorite moments of the year... Duke getting knocked out of the NCAA tourney. Maybe "Coach K" should have concentrated on coaching his players instead of worrying about who Pres. Obama picked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At some point Coach K has to realize that although hes a great coach, he isnt god. At some point, a team needs athletes to win. BTW, did anyone here Gottlieb on Mike and Mike this morning? "Duke does have McDonald's All-Americans... who wouldn't be All-Americans if they didn't sign to Duke". Classic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The media, especially ESPN, loves Duke. Just another reason to root against them. Duke's problem is that their team is comprised of 2's and 3's. Even their big guys, except Zubek who is big white stiff, are jump shooters. When they were winning they had beasts down low who could score in the paint like Brand, Boozer and Laettener. Being a UNC fan I'm not complaining though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They had a hell of a run at the end of the season. You right about their chances next year if Flynn comes back. I know someone who taught him in high school and she told me he was a great kid with good parents. I think he'll come back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking to next year - if Flynn does in fact stay, with the strong recruiting class they have coming in next year, Syracuse could be Final Four good. Last night was best-case scenario for them and worst-case for us. Tony Crocker has no business shooting like that, and Devo and Rautins have no business shooting that badly. But what can you do. Next year will be interesting if Jonny comes back. 4 seniors and 2 juniors in the Top 6 of the rotation. And a good recruiting class that makes the team basically this year's with depth.
