Recap
PFT CommenterThe South Carolina Gamecocks should change their name to just 'The Cox' because Gamecocks is offensive
South Carolina should change its name from the Gamecocks, which is offensive, to just the Cox. Which is not. It's 2017.
PFT CommenterBill Self does not get the most out of his talent at Kansas
[Bill Self's] teams are always really, really good, but they should be better. He doesn't get the most out of his talent. That's the side I'm on.
PFT CommenterEvery coach who doesn't win the National Championship should be fired
Every coach that doesn't win the national championship should probably get fired. I agree. It's a failure.
Who Is Back
Interview
Jay BilasNorth Carolina was the favorite to win the NCAA Tournament from the start of the year
I thought they were the favorite at the beginning, honestly. I thought for the whole year, since I saw them at Maui in November, that Carolina was the best team.
Jay BilasIf North Carolina plays well, they will win the National Championship
I just think Carolina's got too many weapons. If Carolina plays well, they win. For them to lose, they're going to have to play less than well, less than their best.
Jay BilasGonzaga will beat South Carolina in the Final Four because of their scoring depth
I favor Gonzaga because they've got so many more scorers and shooters. You know, South Carolina's not been a great offensive team all year... otherwise, I like Gonzaga to win the game.
Jay BilasCoach K will retire in four or five years
My guess is like four years or so, four or five, but you never know... Four to five years. I don't know, but that's my guess.
Jay BilasIt is a near certainty that college players will eventually boycott a game
I do think as the players, as we go forward, the players are getting more sort of socially aware and their awareness of their power in the marketplace is becoming greater. I think we'll see at some point somebody will boycott. I don't know when it's going to come, but I think it's a near certainty it's going to happen.
Lebron Blames
Big CatLeBron James only wears protective gear to look tough or have an excuse for losing
He literally just wears these things so that then he can say these things were screwing with me... or he can look tough in front of the cameras and everybody's like, oh, look at him. He's not even taking his own health into consideration.
