The West Region of this year’s NCAA bracket has a lot of intriguing matchups and potential bracket-busting upsets. Gonzaga, with its pure dominance during the regular season, is the favorite to come out of the West. However, the Zags are coming into the tournament limping a bit after being upset by South Region # 11 Saint Mary’s in the WCC Championship.
It’s the middle of March, which means it’s time for some Madness! Today I’m going over the South Region of the tournament, and this region is simultaneously the least and most interesting region of the four.
North Carolina and Kentucky are the top seeds for the Midwest bracket. Which teams will advance and which teams will fall to a double-digit seed?
It’s that time of the year… again. The NCAA Tournament and the East Region will again be looked at as one of the easiest or we will be talking twenty years from now about the “upset” that could take place.
Today is the 29th anniversary of Hank Gathers’ tragic death. If you don’t know who that is, don’t worry. At this point, after this many years, it’s quite easy to have never known who Gathers was, as a player or as a man. But for people who did get the chance to follow his career, they won’t forget easily.
For the sake of readers who either want to learn or reminisce, for the sake of my own undying need to write about the greatest phenomenon the world of basketball missed out on for terribly tragic reasons, and, hopefully, for the sake of Gathers’ legacy – so even a few more people can know of his story – it’s time to take a trip back through the time machine to meet a kid who loved basketball named Hank.
Wednesday night’s fiasco in the Duke-North Carolina game was what every young superstar fears. Zion Williamson’s near-serious injury is why many want athletes to have the option to forgo college and jump straight to the pros.
In my three-part series on Basketball throughout the world, I will take a look at all FIBA-recognized countries and the best players from those countries. In part one we looked at 101-213. Here are numbers 51-100 as we continue our countdown. Most of these players you still don’t know, although this time there are a few that may be recognizable, and many of them will never see the inside of an NBA gym but the game is spreading and has truly become global and…well…ya never know. Stay tuned for the top 50 coming next week.
