1.  What does one make of the scores of nearly all the games being in the 50's?
     Is this a trend or an abberation?  As a coach, do you recruit, teach and
     coach accordingly?

2.  What has happened to the ACC?  I saw Duke and NC play at the end of the
     season, and thought that those ACC teams don't play tough defense, not
     like the SEC.  They got in the tournament (only 4 teams by the way, which
     is highly unusual), and did not hold up well against the tough in-your-face
     athletic defenses like the SEC plays.

3.  What about the old adage "it's about guard play".  Seems like it's about the
     big men this year, the teams that can go inside successfully seem to win.
     Is this a development, or an abberation?

4.  How can a freshman from LSU be a 3 star recruit nobody really talked about
     play in the tournament and suddenly become potentially the #1 NBA draft
     pick?  Are the recruiting services that bad? 

5.  Why doesn't CBS ala Billy Packer really promote their league, the SEC?  Are
     they that stupid?

6.  What about George Mason?  They got beat by Ms State and other lowly
     teams in the regular season.  Nobody thought they belonged in the dance.
     It begs the question, is March Madness really about the best team in the
     country, or is it about the team that can play six games well, or is it about
     teams that just happen to get hot in March.

7.  Freethrows-are they as important as they used to be?

8.  Why is everyone talking about LSU (big baby), UCLA (tradition), George
     Mason (Cinderella), and nobody is talking about Florida, who will probably
     win it?

9.  How can one go from despising Brady to thinking he might be an alright
     guy that you wouldn't mind hanging out with, especially if he brings his
     wife?

10.  If Arkansas beats Bucknell, do we get to the final four?

To borrow from Mark Twain, there are three kinds of lies:
lies, darned lies, and the UA Athletic Department.

On #4 I think they said he was almost asked to walk on but got a late scholarship. He then grew 2 inches and gained like 30 lbs.
