Probably not, most NBA power forwards have to play on the perimeter now. But Burns will make money playing bball somewhere.

Duke couldn't throw it in the Ocean right now.

No doubt they will have to restock, but a final four appearance makes that a little easier.

Make the final four, beat the team that beat you in the ACC tournament? They will have loads of confidence. Doesn't mean they will win.

UConn is the best team, but any one of the four teams could win it. Barkley said it earlier. Confidence is huge. Duke or NCSU will have loads of it if they win today.

These teams are really lighting it up offensively.

With all the talk about Burns and Horn, I think a key factor in NCSU's run is Diarra. He is averaging nearly 14 boards per game over the last 7 games. That is a amazing stat.

Ref missed a foul there, but doesn't really matter. Looking good for Purdue right now. Going to be one team in the final four from each of the major BBall conferences.

I won't say they will. But with the one and done nature of the NCAA tournament and the three point shot, I think any remaining team could win it. All it would take is a couple of guys getting hot from three while the favorite has an off night. Also, this NCSU team team probably has more talent than the Valvano team, while its likely that none of the tournament teams has the talent that Houston did.

And being a journeyman is ok. All teams, even Kansas City has a few of those to fill out the roster.

Well, didn't really ask for it, or want it even. Think I just said it will be interesting. And I am glad that the ACC will have one, and maybe two teams in the final four. Yet another "down" year.

Congrats to Duke, but you have to admit, it helped a lot when Houston's best player got injured.

Duke vs NCSU for a trip to the final four.

Well, that should do it. NCSU to the elite 8. If Duke can pull off a win tonight, that would be an interesting rematch.

College teams shoot way to many threes these days.

Neither team is playing much offense tonight.

I am 6-3, I think I still have a few dings in my forehead from trying to run thru the passageways on the Iowa when General Quarters sounded.

Didn't know that, thanks. I was reading the displacement, got it wrong.

The did send a mayday immediately when they lost power. My guess is the generator would cover that.

From what I read, it was closer to 150,000 tons. I also read that the generator kicked in when power went out, but the generator either doesn't or wouldn't power the steering. That is the one thing about this that doesn't make sense. Should the generator power the steering, and if not, why not? I remember reading about ships in WWII that lost power during a battle. USS South Dakota was one that did. Can't imagine anything scarier than losing power when engaging the enemy. Fwiw, when I was on the Iowa, we lost power once. Fortunately, we were sailing in the middle of the Ocean, nothing to hit.

Well, we are definitely making some moves this off season. Hopefully they pay off.

I agree. Which of course means they will finish last.

I have traveled across that bridge. What a scary situation. If you are on the bridge and see it coming, not much you can do. I guess you open the car window so you can get out when the car sinks, but that is about it.

We work on the footwork regardless of who the qb is, every year at the beginning of camp. Tom Brady, I know you are the greatest of all time, but we are going to start this years camp by working on your footwork. lol I do hope he can turn the kid into a good qb.

That is a weird comment. What he did as a coach had nothing to do with his time as a player.
