Safe to say everyone either needs a hug or a few shots of moonshine.

Wow, that ended on a definite Dear Abby note.

Not directly aimed at Fitzy, but since it's included in the roundup: Can we purge the myth that this team "ISU can beat anyone in the country if they play well"?

This team could compete well with most teams, on a good day. I'm not sure it's at the level to defeat a 1 or 2 seed.

I think we can play with any team in the country on a good night. I think we can be the team that get's beat by Hampton in the tourney also.

You go 14/24 from three, and you can beat anybody.

Three of the #1 seeds (with Duke, UVA, and Gonzaga) really scare me.

The candidates for the fourth slot (e.g., TN, the Michigan schools, etc.) not as much.

Fitzy didn't come right out and say it, but you know this is how he was envisioning his Justin Bieber dunk

That type of outlier shooting can sure mask deficiencies.

You need outlier shooting to beat those kinds of teams.

Gross. But I respect your honesty.

But not only those, depending on certain vulnerabilities.

The words of someone who's never used muenster slices on a grilled cheese.

Maybe not so much after what happened last night. (In fairness, I'm posting after the fact, of course.)

This is true.

We will see how serious the injury is/how much time he misses.

If he just wants to shut it down and prepare for the draft, well, that makes sense to me, too.

White American Cheese slices. You're welcome.

Well, next time I have grilled cheese, I'll have to do some comparing and contrasting.
