How old is Leonard Hamilton!? He coached at Okie St BEFORE Eddie Sutton. It's crazy he preceded a coach who's already had a court named after him.

He's got to be old, he was at Miami for a while before he went to FSU too

That would be a fun game I think. I've enjoyed watching both teams.
Nova finding a way last night was impressive.
It's annoying that KU's still around but it's at least interesting to watch how far they've come.
This Michigan team and Loyola just seem to be mentally strong and enjoy make a play when they need it.
what a dumb shot by FSU. F-ing drive it!!!!

Was surprised they didn't keep at the foul with 10 seconds left.
4 points still gives you a chance in less than 10 seconds.
Either way I have to admit I wasn't aware KSU had that kind of history. Admittedly I was more of a Big Ten fan as a kid until the mid 90s when I switched over to ISU mid Floyd era.
I agree, but after watching the replay, looks like he was going to drive but went too far right and into a double team, then panicked.
