I suspect the UConn-Iona afternoon session in Albany will be an expensive ticket. I'm looking forward to that game...I think it could be a very interesting match up...

Speaking of Colgate, I believe for 35.00, you can watch their game and the other game in their "session" as the NCAA calls it. There are actually 4 sessions across the country you can attend for 13.00-20.00. Most expensive session is in Birmingham. I forget who is in it but it costs 223.00. You pay a lot more if one of the bluebloods is involved. That is good to hear. I really enjoy going to the games, but with even Ticketmaster now being a legalized scalper now. it's tough. I remember 10 or so years ago paying $180 for the 3 session package in Providence. Last time it was there, it was about $200 a session which was too rich for my wallet

A friend bought tickets to the night (non-UConn) session in Albany for $190 each. That seemed very expensive for a session without a great game on paper or a strong northeast team.

Indiana - Kent State and Miami - Drake is a yucky doubleheader, but should be two fairly competitive games. Better than seeing a 1 or 2 seed in a non-competitive game.

Similar seats halfway up in the upper deck around even with the top of one key are $145 for the Friday night session and $250 for the UConn afternoon session (including fees).

Those Albany lobbists have a lot of cash to burn to curry favor with their influential lawmakers and staffs.

Arizona scored four points in the final eight minutes. That team looked so incredibly tight and petrified to shoot during that stretch.
Loved seeing Princeton win. They didn't even seem to play that well. Poor shooting day...but totally dictated the pace of that game.

Princeton’s star Tosan Evbuomwan seemed as good (offense and defense) as anybody on Arizona’s team.
Maybe our next men’s coach will have some international contacts.

They shot Arizona out of the chance to win. Go ‘Gate !,

Carmody disciple, Mitch Henderson, looking good as the Princeton coach.

Smith is a good young point guard, but at this point of his career just can't score the ball the way Jordan Burns and Nelly Cummings could. Makes a difference imho.

Ralph Willard protege, Darrin Horn, coaching N.Kentucky to a competitive first half vs top seed, Houston, Similar career to Willard. Great at Western Kentucky. Not great at South Carolina. Great at Northern Kentucky.

Did Carmody’s delay in announcing his retirement cost us Darrin Horn?
Horn was hired at Northern KY on April 23 2019. Nelson was hired at HC on July 3 2019.
Have to imagine RW would have made a strong pitch for Horn had we been in the market a few months earlier.
