Normally I'd be rooting for the team that knocked UConn out (giving us the right to say we lost to the champs).

But Houston is beyond overdue for a title, especially having guys like Elvin Hayes, Clyde Drexler, and Hakeem Olajuwon come through there and come up just short.

Hope the Coogs do it.

Totally agree

Thanks for sharing. That's gross. Unrelated note. Just figured out that WC Jr played against us on 2023 when he was at Iona under Rick Pitino

Yeah I remember hoping we would go after him when he announced he was transferring

I'm rooting for a Florida blowout so we can say UConn was the 2nd best team in the country.

I’m gonna root for the team that has never won and doesn’t have a sex pest for a head coach

guando.bsky.social•22 days ago

Sex Pest is probably kind but it does work well so I am stealing that.

You have my blessing

Apparently there's a story I missed.

Men are idiots.

I really like Kelvin Sampson and I just think his teams are so gritty and had some rough luck the last 2 years that they'll be ready for this moment.

I also picked them in my bracket and I love being right.

Being right is great
