Thanks Zen. I had a lot of fun today despite the outcome. We drove up at 7am, got good seats for $20. After the game we went back to the hotel and hung out with the players, coaches, and family watching the selection show. All of those guys are so down to earth and it was just a great experience being at that event with them. Toney Douglas went out of his way to come up to us and give us some thanks. I even got on his video diary that he had going on there saying some kind words. I also got to meet Harry Douglas who was really a nice guy. Overall, it was a great experience. I'm dead tired but it was worth it. Oh, I went to the Varsity. Greasiest.food.ever.

Thank you. I don't think will win, but I'm excited we're in the game. Also, I just decided that I am going to the game! I'm leaving at 7am.

Never seen such a great coach as Roy so overwhelmed in end-game situations. It's amazing. Thanks man, I don't mean to sound ignorant, but you know we've never been anywhere like this.

I don't care if they didn't have Lawson. I don't care if they didn't want to play tomorrow. We beat UNC and I'm stoked. We're FSU basketball and we've never been in a championship game in the ACC. Yes, UNC would have beaten us if they had Lawson, but I don't care. Haha. Sorry, I'm pumped. Hopefully this lets us go to Miami for the regional because you know I'll be there.

And here we go 2ot.

Wow, that sucks for Syracuse lol. Going to OT.

The show is definitely growing on me the more I watch it.

I'm happy GT beat Clemson, but now I'm worried about playing them for some reason. Hopefully we win and VT beats UNC.

Man I love Rich Waltz. That was an amazing game. I'm glad the Netherlands won. I hope they can keep it up too in Miami.

Wow, what a game. I love that it came off of Marmol too. Also, I'm happy the RF got that hit to make up for missing that ball. Winning run on 3rd.

QUOTE (Palehosefan @ Mar 10, 2009 -> 01:01 PM) For instance, you guys have 2 5 stars, and 5 4 stars. Your 5 main minutes guys consist of 3 4 stars and 2 5 stars. Touche haha. I guess what I should have said was we have a bunch of young unproven guys who still need to develop. Soloman is really the only one looking like a 5 star (I'm worried we're going to lose him after next season). Kitchen is sort of a weird circumstance; if he would have played the whole season this team would have been a lot better. It took him a while to get used to playing with our guys. Besides TD and Soloman (for like 5 games against crappy schools last year), Uche, Demercy and Reid (sucks) are the only others that have experience. Uche was hurt to begin the season, Demercy can't play offense to save his life, and Reid just plays the tough guy role. But then again, I'm not sure on the experience of UNC. In the end its just weird for FSU being good in basketball, even if it is for only one season. Nothing against Lawson though. He is a great player. If it wasn't for TD's defense he wouldn't even be in the conversation. Edit: Toney lost by 4 votes. Ham got coach of the year. TD got defensive POY.

Toney Douglas should be POY in the ACC, but he won't be. Lawson will get it despite playing no defense and having a team full of great talent. FSU basketball is Toney Douglas. Without him we would have been 10th in the ACC like everyone predicted.

That was amazingly s***ty but amazing at the same time.

New rotation for us: Tuesday: O'Dell Wednesday: Wood Friday: Gilmartin Saturday: Busch Sunday: McGee Looks good to me except for O'Dell. I'd like to see Scantling in there instead.

QUOTE (jphat007 @ Mar 9, 2009 -> 01:10 PM) We (UVA) went down and destroyed Wake in Winston-Salem. We're absolutely killing the ball after playing dink and dunk the last couple of years. Pitching should be pretty good too. FSU coming to town next weekend will be interesting. If you guys are raking the ball it won't be interesting at all. I'm hoping for one win this weekend.

What a great 11 pitch at bat for Youk. The US has blown this thing open, 10-3 in the 6th.

We lost again, haha. Next weekend @ Virginia might be ugly.

If NU wins, what do they have to do in the Big Ten Tourney?

QUOTE (danman31 @ Mar 8, 2009 -> 05:23 PM) You can say that if you want, but what you really mean is "I hate these two teams so much because they always win and they are so much better than 99% of college basketball programs." They are good now and they're two of the top programs, you can't deny that. But Duke, I hate. I like UNC.

QUOTE (zenryan @ Mar 8, 2009 -> 04:15 PM) They switched it to Duke/UNC in Tally? They didnt switch it here in Orlando. That is weird. Yeah, I was flipping back and forth between the FSU game and this one. When ours ended, I flipped back for good and Duke/UNC was on.

I don't know if I can take much more of this Duke/UNC game. All it is is both teams crying for fouls every time they touch the ball.

It would have been nice if I could watch the end of it. Did they really need to switch to Duke/UNC? God forbid we miss 2 minutes of it.

Toney took over that game and gave us a first round bye in the ACC tourney. The thing that sucks is we'll probably play Clemson for the 3rd time. I'm confident we can beat them a third time because we've solved their press (we've come a long way since the NU game), but its tough beating a team like Clemson 3 times in one season.
