View episodeUniversity of Virginia is the biggest winner of the weekend despite not playing
Biggest winner of the weekend... University of Virginia. Big time dodged bullet because not only did their loss against Furman not, it wasn't even close to being the biggest upset of the tournament so far. But also they're no longer the only 16 seed to go down to a one seed [after Purdue lost to FDU].
Without Zach Edey, Purdue wouldn't have even made the NIT
My takeaway was that Zach Edey, without Zach Edey Purdue would not have made the tournament. They probably wouldn't have even made the NIT. Zach Edey was the only one doing anything.
Matt Painter should be fired
Get him out. Yeah... fire is at [third]. This is an unforgivable loss. 13 seed. 15 seed. 16 seed. He's the bizarro world Tom Izzo.

Michigan was the best team all year — outside of Duke, who would have won the championship by a lot
They were the best team. They were the best team all year outside of Duke. 'Cause that actually was my other big takeaway — Duke just completely, Duke beat this Michigan team a month and a half ago.
Danny Hurley is 18-1 against the spread in his last four NCAA tournaments, which is insane
Danny Hurley remains 18 and one in the last four tournaments against the spread. How insane is that? Furman is the only one that they didn't cover. That was the first round this year.
