I keep having to remember there are two Xavier U's...the one that actually gets face time during March Madness...and then the one I went to for a year (i.e., the one people forget about in New Orleans). I always get excited in that first instant that I see the word Xavier on the jerseys. And then, it comes back to me, lol. Since my true alma mater, Howard U, is pretty abysmal as well, I basically watch the Tournament without bias.

I cant tell if the top teams are weak or if the comp just got better. But I suspect that none of the teamns that held 1# will make it to the finals.

...thanks for the publicity too...now I have to make sure I bring the goods!

As soon as the NCAA Tournament teams are announced I will have some historical analysis on the top seeds and also on the 5/12 and 6/11 matchups on Sunday.

Then throughout the week I will be breaking down other possible upsets and making my picks, which may or may not be right!

I remember when Cleveland State beat Syracuse and I told you they weren't that bad. Now look at them in the tournament!

...and worst draft class ever is 2000, I wrote about this just last week:

Stromile Swift was cut by the Nets and will sign with the Suns. Swift was actually the 2nd pick in the NBA Draft in 2000, but he really has been a huge bust, averaging just 8.5 points and 4.7 rebounds throughout his 8 year career. Of course 2000 was probably the worst draft in the history of the NBA, producing just 3 future NBA All-Stars: Kenyon Martin, Jamal Magloire, & Michael Redd. Hedo Turkoglu & Jamal Crawford are the only other players drafted in 2000 that have been consistent starters throughout their careers.
