I admit pulling for the Mount not only for the obvious reasons behind your post but also based on the memories of them being a rival back in the D2 days.

I'm in the same boat with pulling for the Mount. Morgan Wooten's Mason Dixon Basketball Camp was in Emmittsburg for a few years.

I was hoping UNC-W would pull the upset and beat the Boo Hoos.

A UVa WIN coupled with a Tech LOSS would be a perfect Spring Break Thursday for me.

Looks as if you had a good Thursday. Personally there's not much I enjoy in sports more than a UVA loss in basketball or football.

Not sure how you can really pull that hard against Coach Bennett. One of the classiest coaches in the country and a devout believer to boot.

Bennett is a classy guy, probably one of top 2 or 3 in NCAA, but I not like anything about UVA other than baseball team.
Rumor has it , that Illinois will offer Bennett over 4,000,000 a season, to come out there.

Actually he is in the rumor mill for the IU job. If he takes another job look for the RMK to UVA rumors to start

WVU is punching the first ticket to the Sweet Sixteen with their dozen point victory over Notre Dame.

Congrats to Purple, JK, and anybody else with ties to Morgantown.

My bracket got a Badger shaped atom bomb dropped on it this afternoon...the writer on ESPN was right, there is a reason why its so difficult to be a repeat national champion on the men's side...

My bracket is the top one in the group and I don't even watch basketball.I mean I know exactly what I was doing. Yeah let's go with that.
Really I just got lucky only one branch of my bracket got nuked. South Carolina played great at the right time.
