We don't know that our fanbase ran off white, although it seems some are quick to accept that as fact. Also, Crean has arguably been more successful than White. Even jawja has expectations. You can't outrun expectations.
They got hot at the right time, but they’re not a great team. Mediocre Alabama annihilated them by 32 earlier in the season and they also lost to UCF, among other teams.
Now Miami loses their only big man. Tallest player is 6' 7". Kansas can pretty much score at will in the paint from here on out and foul out the remaining Miami players. Miami does not have any depth.
Going to be in New Orleans for the F4, Miami losing and not having to interact with their fans is a huge sigh of relief.
We can say with certainty they Coach White would be on a very short leash at UF next year. We can also say that he relied on the transfer portal this year for most of his starting 5, if not 7 early in the year and would have had to rebuild again next year. He now has security of another long term contract at UGA and little in the way of program expectations. They have been perennial losers. Much less pressure.
Was pulling for Miami but they ran out of gas while Kansas shifted into it's next gear. Elite 8 is a good run though - good for them. We'll get back there one day, too. GO Gators!
Looks like it’s getting dangerously close to midnight. Can we stomach the hype of another UNC Dook matchup?
St Peters getting destroyed shows how bad of a loss it was for Purdue. They had about a week to prepare with plenty of footage and they laid an egg. First round upsets can happen, but losses to the 15 seed in the Sweet 16 vs the 3 seed shouldn't.
