I'm Trying
I'll try to get back to more updates soon. And hopefully not as sporadic and short. But for now a few things to ponder.
UNCW's path to the Sweet 16 will most likely run through a top 15 team and the #1 team. And that's with a 9 seed.
ODU knocked off Colorado in Boulder pretty easily tonight in the first round of the NIT. Hofstra plays Nebraska in NYC tomorrow.
Some thoughts from Pat Forde on Best and Worst Case Scenarios for UNCW:
UNC Wilmington
Best case: Smart, experienced, skilled Seahawks handle George Washington, then finally get a shot at Duke. Two-time Colonial Athletic Association Defensive Player of the Year John Goldsberry does what almost no one else can do: limits fatigued J.J. Redick to nightmare shooting game and UNC-W has the upset. School isn't just called off for a day; they cancel the rest of the semester and go to the beach.
Worst case: GW gets on the offensive glass and in the paint at will off the dribble, exploiting its athletic advantage to beat UNC-W in the first round. Students unilaterally take the rest of the semester off and go to the beach.
BTW Joe Lunardi is picking us to beat GWU and then to lose to Duke. So hopefully we can make at least half of that come true.
Tune in tomorrow on CBS at 7:10. And then at 9:40 to hopefully find out who our opponent will be.
