I realize he's 85 years old and it's D1ck Vitale, not like you can fire the guy, but I can hardly hear him, this is a terrible broadcast.

I can appreciate the throw back stuff but the guy was a cartoon of himself 15 years ago so it was never going to go well even if he was healthy.

And I'm a fan of all of those things that used to make college basketball fun.

You don’t think ISU is in competition with Florida for a better seed?
We are absolutely in competition for Florida and the other “non-Auburn” SEC teams. Really silly to think otherwise. Not ideal for us that Florida won today.

Yeah, he's a bit of an institution but I'm glad we don't see him as often as ACC teams do. Especially since he's pretty much just a duke fan whenever he's calling one of their games

The "Is North Carolina on the bubble?" narrative seems to have subsided at last.

What did they say about them? I noticed ESPN had them in the "should be in" territory on their first bubble watch. Torvick has them as a bubble team also.

It makes zero sense to me except for extreme name bias on both sites. Their resume is terrible.

Was watching UNI tonight and Bowen Born popped into my head. He’s struggling at Colorado State
I definitely think UNI is a sum that is greater than their parts, rather than the parts being great sort of team.
