When we last saw the hardest working player in college basketball ever, his team was getting absolutely smashed by the Kansas Jayhawks in the Final Four. Apparently, that was enough to motivate him [...]

And then there were Four. The Fantastic Four. Four Square. Whatever Final Four-inspired name you’d like to use to describe this weekend’s games and the bunch above me is fine. I’m sure they all fit. In the amazingly slight chance you don’t know what I’m referring to, the Final Four [...]

Washington State/North Carolina
Outlook
Great defense versus great offense. Who wins? That’s what this game is coming down to. On one hand, you have North Carolina. They’ve scored over 100 points in their first two tournament games, making one harken for the Loyola-Marymount days. On the other hand, you have Washington State. [...]

Chris Webber is going to be announcing his retirement this afternoon, ending his “comeback” attempt after playing in just nine games since rejoining Golden State. His stats during his little supporting roll stint reinforce the decision: 3.9 points and 3.6 rebounds. Webber was averaging 14 minutes a game.

I’d like you to meet the first 20-loss team to make the NCAA Tournament, a designation that actually steals some spotlight away from Georgia and their unlikely bid.
Howeva, are the Eagles as bad as their record appears? If you go by the early season (until about February), the answer is unequivocally yes. [...]

From the “I doubt you missed this but you need to see it again and again” files, Danny Green put the exclamation mark on North Carolina’s victory over Duke on Saturday, much to the enjoyment of Cameron “Crazies” (is “Crazies” short for not very knowledgeable when it comes to college basketball?).

Even though they have a high ranking in the polls, not many college basketball watchers took the Duke Blue Devils very seriously (guilty), that is, until now. Coach K’s crew of jump shooters and perimeter players went into Chapel Hill and handed the Ty Lawson-less Tar Heels a convincing 89-79 loss.
It was the Greg [...]

The ubiquitous Dick Vitale is returning from vocal chord surgery just in time for the best rivalry in sports (at least according to ESPN), Duke versus North Carolina on Wednesday. It will be Vitale’s first game since he went under the knife in December.
“I have waited so long for this day to come,” Vitale [...]
