Thanks Rick.

Now for the Regional final tonight. We haven't beaten Virginia since we joined the ACC. We have played them tough for about 35 minutes in games over the past three years, but seem to falter at the end (our bench is not at all deep). So, if the stars are aligned properly, maybe we're due. With any luck Chicago will look like this on Monday morning.

Thanks Dan.

Incredible. What a gritty group of kids. Hard to imagine them getting here after a very up and down season. The Tarheels will be really tough. However, maybe the stars will align just right again.

By the way, did anybody check the river this morning? <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/smile.gif
