Love our team and everything they accomplished. Part of what is great about college basketball is the talent of the opposing players you get exposed to during the tourney. Patric Young and James Young were 2 that I enjoyed watching compete. Who else made an impression?

Galloway by far.What a player. then his teammate the euro royce white. patric Young I liked because he was a nice guy. He wasn't an intriguing talent IMO. I also loved that kid with the fro on st joes. Surprised martelli has struggled in recent years, guy can put together a team.

Harrell for me, by Far.
He was BEAST!!!!!!

Thank God, We didn't see him, in the Tourney.

watching the tourney itself.
I enjoyed watching Wisconsin.
I'm Happy that Kentucky beat them.
although at the time, i was rooting for Wisky.

I absolutely loved patric young . Not enough good things can happen to that kid. Already loved him, but the topper was the final minute or so in the FF, game already over and Young goes totally airborne horizontally trying to save a ball out of bounds.
College hoops needs more Patric Youngs.

Young is a Nice Player and Guy
If he Played Better, They may have beaten Us.

Shabazz laying in the Ball, with Young standing there doing nothing...
I'm not sure why Young was so Tired.

Young was the only reason we didn't run them outta the gym. Without him, Lenehan and the People's Choice might've gotten some run

Kovacevic from St. Joe's. I love a power forward who can dictate the game from the block with his passing.

I'd kill to have a player like that at UConn.

He isn't always the prettiest but I like what Shaq Goodwin brings for Memphis. He always hustles.

The first time we played Memphis Austin Nichols was a big surprise. But I'm definitely not surprised he was ROY. I'm gonna hate playing that kid but love watching him develop. We definitely gotta credit Nic Moore on SMU too, in a league with a lot of great guards he pushed his name into that conversation.

The aforementioned passing post player on St. Joe's was terrific, and of course tip o the cap to Patric young.

My favorites are the guys who miss a lot when we play them. I'm a big Wilbekin fan. And I love the entire 2011 Butler team. Bless 'em all.
Matt Howard! That guy was awesome.

I know he didn't play well against us but Brenden Dawson is a player I really enjoyed watching throughout the tournament. I also really like Joe Harris from UVa, James Bell from 'Nova, Hogue from ISU, and Russ Smith.

In the tourney, I just loved watching everyone of one of the opposing teams players walk off the court before we did… Now that was fun to watch...

GUYS GUYS GUYS. THAT DUDE ON UCF THAT WAS LIKE 6'10 350.

That would be Justin McBride; dude had to be over 400lbs when we played UCF:

Had to love the announcers' (and refs') enthusiasm every time he made a play, "somebody get that kid a sandwich!"
