Nice, I've got KState in the Final Four.

I originally had Butler in the elite 8, but then changed it to Syracuse over Utah State.

WHY?!?!

The KState game last night was the best Basketball game I've watched this year by far. Both teams were making big play after big play.

Going into last night I felt KState/Syracuse/Kentucky were the 3 teams playing really well. If I did an Elite 8 pickup I'd have KState over KU in the final. Curtis Kelly and Samuals would to give UK fits inside on offense and defense. Pullen and Clemente are such a rock solid duo I think if UK can't hit 3's (which at times they can't) they will lose.

Yikes I see ESPN has KState on the front page now. I take all the above back. They are jinxed and will lose to Butler.

Both KState and Xavier have better guard play than the timberwolves. Seriously I think Flynn and Brewer would get beat on by them.

I wouldn't bet against that happening...

Worst Case Scenario happened today for the Wolves with Ohio State losing in the sweet 16. Think it will leave a bitter taste in Turners mouth. I know he will be turning down lots of money but with how big of a competitor Evan Turner is and the entire team coming back next year I see him staying in college to try and win a National Championship next year.

Definitely. Especially since he's "the man" on Ohio State.

And on top of that, if it was likely that he's going to the Wolves or Nets, I could see him staying in school just so that he doesn't get stuck on either of these crappy teams...

Evan Turner will be in the NBA draft.

Agreed.

You'd have to be a fool to turn down being the 2nd pick in the draft. That's not even factoring in the CBA negotiations issues.

Hm...the bitter taste of losing in the sweet 16 or the sweet taste of champagne in your own mansion.....hm...I don't know, this is a tough one. But, I'll have to go with the mansion then a dorm room.

Yeah, he'll probably most likely be in the draft.

But this loss, combined with going to the Wolves/Nets... perhaps opens up a small window?

Also, does he have to officially declare for the draft before or after he knows who wins the lottery?

I'm just saying the possibility of him staying in college is there because for some kids it's not all about the money. Some guys would rather go later in the draft to a decent team than to a team that has years to go before they compete for a playoff spot. So until he says he's going pro the possibility of him staying at Ohio St. is there

I didn't see it myself, but I saw someone mention Turner's comments after the game about how disappointed he was and not wanting to end like that?

Man it would suck if we got the #2 pick and Turner didn't come out.
