My 14 year old plays AAU ball, and has me interested in the squeaky tennis shoe tournament again. After seeing what they did to Illinois yesterday; who can keep up with them?
I'm thinking maybe Purdue with Smith and Edey, but right now UConn looks unstoppable.
Is the Boilermakers vs. Vols game today going to decide who gets to lose to UConn?
Happy Easter

No. UCONN clearly better than everyone else IMO.
It is irrelevant what you think. What matters is the TRUTH.

UCONN has to make it through Alabama first. Not that I don’t think they can’t, as I think they will. I’ve only watched 2 NCAA tournament games this year, but dang UCONN is on a roll at the moment.

The only team that can beat Uconn is Uconn.
And recent history indicates that probably won't happen.

UConn took Illinois apart. Not even close and they were the highest seed left except for UConn itself! I think they win it all! I'd much rather see Coach Painter and Prudue win it but I don't think it's going to happen.

UCon is the best team in the tournament without question. They rarely come out flat, so I like them to finish it off.

Hmmmmm! And then there was racial controversies ?.

Edey has won all of the Player of the Year etc awards for two seasons; for the first time in a long time.All the pundents are picking UConn to win it all. So i will just say this; If Edey rises to the occasion and the supporting players have a good night, then the Boilers can win the Natty tomorrow nite. PS: UCON HAS BEEN BEATEN THREE TIMES ALREADY "ALL HAIL, OUR OWN, PURDUE" !!!!!

UConn is well balanced & has a lot of guns.
Purdue isn't nearly as well balanced & is not deep off the bench.
Edey & one or 2 others will have to have a monumental game to overcome UConn's balance.
And unless Purdue stops turning over the ball as they did yesterday, it could get ugly fast.
And UConn will be back at it next year.............yesterday they started 2 sophomores & 3 freshmen.
I'll pull for Purdue & hope for the best, though.
