March Madness!

How are your brackets doing? Mine took a few blows today as Vanderbilt and Georgetown both got knocked off. I had them both going to the regionals. I was excited to see my alma mater BYU win, it was there first tournament win since 1993. Like I always do, I wasn't going to pick them and ended up doing it in the end. It is funny to see who is leading after the first couple of days in the locker room because some of the guys have no clue about college basketball. Sometimes you have the guys that pick all upsets.

Last night was a huge win for us. We are kind of a wild card right now with the changes that we have made. We also will be getting players back like Booras and Spiller. Many have asked what was the reasoning that Dayton gave up such good players. Both guys were making good money there and Dayton decided that they would cut salaries and bring in guys that they might get to come back next year. I think they also wanted to reward some of the players that played good for them all year by getting to play a longer season. Robinson and Bouchard looked frustrated out there.

Matt Smyth was sent to Dayton today for the future considerations that we gave up to get Rick Varone. Although it was hard to give him up, I think it will benefit him. He will get to play a lot there and with the guys we have coming back he probably would not have received much playing time. I wish him well.
