I can't believe Oregon, losing it's big man in the Pac12 tourney, made it to the final four. How were they a 3 seed?

Also, UK opened as a 3 point dog and is now only 2. A big part of me thinks that they should be favored. My bro in law and I filled out his bracket together and he's in a like $1200 total pool. If UNC wins, he makes the money. I keep telling him he should bet at least 3rd place money on UK but he's too afraid to gamble. I keep telling him it is not gambling. If UK wins, he'll win 3rd place money. If UNC wins by 1 or 2, he'll win money on the bet and in the pool. And, if UNC wins by more than 2, he'll win money in the pool to, at a minimum cover his loss. Feel like I'm banging my head on a wall trying to make him money. ](*,) ](*,) ](*,) ](*,)

Tim, is Malik Monk the most anti-clutch player ever in the history of the world?

Glad Monk's career in college is over. Maybe Arkansans can get on with their lives now.

To be honest, I haven't heard much around here. There was 1 day on the drive home that I had 103.7 on, don't know if you ever listened to them, but they have this guy on from 5-530 who is a some type of high school football player rater for one of those websites I think rivals. Anyway, he does it for basketball too I think but his bread and butter is football and they talk about football 80% of the time even during basketball season so ... it's a football show. Anyway, he made a statement, as innocent as it was, that Ben Simmons went 1st in the NBA draft and holy [expletive] [expletive] god damned mother [expletive]....that opened the floodgates for people to chime in about how monk should have come to Arkansas and [expletive] him and blah blah blah. I mean, it wasn't too nasty. But the guy goes...I didn't think I'd end up spending half an hour talking about Malik Monk. And, I don't want to.

The sentiment is still there, but it's just kind of not talked about.

Anyway, those 3's were huge and I'm glad KY covered.
