2022 NCAA Tournament Open Thread

Don’t feel ike Juwan and Hubert Davis are in a competition with each other as far as recruits go. UNC will always be UNC.

BUT, let’s hear it for Coach Fish!

Despite no buzzer beaters (I think…) what an incredible tournament. Great final 2 games and intrigue at every step of the way.

Heard Chuck say it early in the tournament and it is true…March Madness ALWAYS delivers!

If there’s a .000001% advantage for or against Michigan, that’s all that is important to me. It’s how my brain works.

Kind of sucks that the game was decided on a rolled ankle. Bacot had a step on that drive. Instead a TO, then a free post up on Manek, then Caleb Love and Puff Johnson heroics fail.

That kind of leaves a sour taste in my mouth.

Also, Jalen Wilson totally was a deer in headlights because he airballed a 3 and it wasn’t a sportsmanship thing lol.

They’re good but they certainly had a pretty easy road to get there.

Still don’t know what they did to deserve that sweetheart of a bracket

Let’s be nice to the kid and call it a sportsmanship thing but your spot on.

I can’t believe they didn’t let Emmert hand the trophy to Self

Emmert called them University of Kansas twice.

KU really turned up the defense, no doubt. They played with desperation all second half and it actually worked.

I feel for Bacot personally, but not UNC overall, not when they got a title because we called a timeout…

Bill Self proving shady wins championships. Good for him

They played well but I’m convinced love finishes at least 3-4 of those if he doesn’t roll that ankle

Yeah lotta what ifs for Carolina

What if Bacot is healthy all game
What if Love stays healthy
What if Bacot just doesn’t go down at the end
What if Love doesn’t put up the worst finishing at the rim display in college history

He said Kansas City I think

You guys see the floor moved on bacots injury? That’s terrible.

McCormack deserved the MVP but as we’ve learned, awards are pretty much random

UNC had some seriously bad injury luck in this one. So tough to get all the way to the final and be that compromised.
