Welcome to The Holy Land of Hoops

How high up on the all time list is Gillespie in Big East History?

Wright is the best. So classy all the time. Talks up the other schools and the conference.

Agreed, can't wait for his congratulatory tweet haha.

Good game Creighton, go give them hell in the tourney.

Here, here! Coverage is excellent on FOX/FS1. I think we'll be on FOX Sports years to come.

Wow, butt ugly game by both teams. Man, Kalkbrenner was phenomenal. Good luck Jays next week and going forward. That is going to be one hell of a team next year.

Good luck all on selection Sunday!

"He's not a real PG" is what I said into his sophomore year, and I wasn't alone! We were so spoiled by Brunson that we've failed to appreciate Gillespie early on. The entire BE history is a tall mountain...

Congrats to Villanova and Creighton, what a great finish.

BET is the best 4 days of the sports year.

Selection show will be great, hoping X can hold that final spot.

Congrats Chap and all you Radnorites. Something special.

Gitmo and you other Jays, heads up high. Great achievement making it to that game.

To the victor go the spoils. Congrats to the Radnorites. Hurts like hell to lose this one.
(I had the "coronation of the new King" post finished and ready to publish online - shit!)

Thanks to all the Nova fans for their graciousness in victory - taking a page from Jay.
Thanks for the condolences posts from the rest of you.

However, as one who tends towards absolutes, I don't put stock in falling short - close
only counts in "Horseshoes & Hand Grenades". It'll hurt for a few days, then get set for the dance.

My Jays done good for being such a young team...However, One should always capitalize when presented the opportunity.
You can't count on such opportunities coming around again (see DePaul, see St. Johns, see Northwestern, see BC, etc.)
(this is why I still have grievances...If you can't win the 'Big Game"...hmmm? You can ask any Gonzaga, Butler, or Georgetown (1-3),
Mich (1-4), TOSU (1-4), or Kansas (3-6) fan about how it feels to come up short in the big game.

To the Villanova contingent: Chestrockwell, Gumbyddamnit, Novachap, MackNova, Kayako, and the rest....
Congratulations on extending the reign and another Banner. You done good!

Okay then Big East, let's go and do some damage in the Dance! Kumbaya...

While at the BET a couple times there was a QR code shown on the Jumbotron for a link to purchase souvenir tickets based on your electronic ticket. Did anyone else see this and get the QR code to work? I never got it to work and there is nothing on the BigEast store web site. I was hoping to buy some replica tickets from my first BET experience.
