scottditzen Posted March 21, 2011 Report Posted March 21, 2011 Kentucky, Ohio State, UNC, Marquette, Duke, Arizona, UConn, San Diego State, Florida, BYU, Wisconsin, Butler, Virginia Commonwealth, Florida State, Richmond or Kansas. I'm sick of Duke. And I've already seen enough Jimmer highlights and commentary....yes, he's Morman....we know, enough already! Born in San Diego. I doubt they're the best team. But I'm pulling for San Diego State. Quote
Dr Z Posted March 21, 2011 Report Posted March 21, 2011 VCU, BYU, Kansas, SDSU, Richmond, Butler, FSU in that order, fill in the rest however, and put Columbus St at the end. Good tournament so far BTW. I love being able to watch EVERY game. Quote
GJGood Posted March 21, 2011 Report Posted March 21, 2011 VCU, Richmond, San Diego State, Butler, or if it must be a power conference school that wins in the end then I'd be pulling for Marquette. Quote
Dave in Green Posted March 21, 2011 Report Posted March 21, 2011 Totally agree on VCU and Butler. These are two teams the Zips should aspire to be. By the way, did anyone else watching 5-10 Joey Rodriguez run the point for VCU see any resemblance in style to Rico? Obviously, Rodriguez is a senior and more polished. But I could see Rico potentially having similar performances in upcoming seasons. It does show that a sub-6-foot PG is not a liability if the player is good enough to compensate for his lack of height with speed, great ball handling, pinpoint passing and general control of the offensive flow. Interesting note on the upcoming VCU-FSU matchup: It will be the first game in NCAA tournament history between #10 and #11 seeds. Quote
scottditzen Posted March 21, 2011 Author Report Posted March 21, 2011 Good tournament so far BTW. I love being able to watch EVERY game. Great point. And it was so cool being able to sneak in a bit online at work. Props to NCAA website. Quote
jberry1337 Posted March 21, 2011 Report Posted March 21, 2011 VCU for sure, they are looking awesome. I have Duke/Kansas on my bracket. But I wouldn't root for either of them, ever. I also am hoping that by the end of the tourney, Ohio State misses at least 1 shot. Quote
scottditzen Posted March 21, 2011 Author Report Posted March 21, 2011 VCU [shaka] RIC Butler OSWho. The Akron Connections!!! RIght on. Quote

Yes, I was thinking the exactly the same thing. If Rico can work on his shot a bit more and play a bit more under control he could be very similar to Rodriguez. Quote
skip-zip Posted March 21, 2011 Report Posted March 21, 2011 VCU for Shaka. And every other double-digit seed. Quote
Dave in Green Posted March 21, 2011 Report Posted March 21, 2011 Speaking of mid-majors who've made the big time, there's an interesting Sporting News story on where this might take the NCAA Tournament: Sporting News Quote
Zip_ME87 Posted March 21, 2011 Report Posted March 21, 2011 Definitely VCU (Shaka), Butler, Richmond, San Diego State Quote
UA Fan Posted March 21, 2011 Report Posted March 21, 2011 VCU. I just wonder if Shaka will move on up after this run Quote
Let'sGoZips94 Posted March 21, 2011 Report Posted March 21, 2011 VCU, Butler, and Richmond. Three very respectable teams who are mid-majors. Plus, VCU has the Akron connection, my cousins live near Butler, and I have a friend who plays tennis at Richmond. Haha. Quote
GoZips88 Posted March 22, 2011 Report Posted March 22, 2011 VCU for Shaka. And every other double-digit seed. +1 Quote
Dr Z Posted March 22, 2011 Report Posted March 22, 2011 VCU Most Impressive Team in Tourney? Shaka movin on? Quote
Dr Z Posted March 25, 2011 Report Posted March 25, 2011 Behind the scenes with VCU & Shaka. I see a drill that VCU runs that the Zips need to do. Quote
2Ball Posted March 25, 2011 Report Posted March 25, 2011 VCU, Richmond, San Diego State, Butler, or if it must be a power conference school that wins in the end then I'd be pulling for Marquette. Tonight Kentucky....... Quote
UAZipster0305 Posted March 25, 2011 Report Posted March 25, 2011 VCU, Richmond, San Diego State, Butler, or if it must be a power conference school that wins in the end then I'd be pulling for Marquette. Tonight Kentucky....... +1. And Richmond and VCU. Quote
Dave in Green Posted March 26, 2011 Report Posted March 26, 2011 Say goodbye to Richmond and Marquette, both being blown out at halftime. Quote
jem101 Posted March 26, 2011 Report Posted March 26, 2011 I have to root for VCU, since they're playing in Akron next year. The farther they go, the better that looks on our schedule. Quote
UA Fan Posted March 26, 2011 Report Posted March 26, 2011 wow, fsu certainly squandered their last possession in regulation.. ballgame. bye shaka...enjoy the loot. any way KD would go to vcu? Quote
Valpo Zip Posted March 26, 2011 Report Posted March 26, 2011 Holly Shaka Smart. looking like the next best coach in the nation. Quote
