1. Hey I love college basketball and I'm a girl .

I like college basketball more than professional ball ( NBA ) . When I was younger I was a die hard Duke Fan during the Bobby Hurley/ Grant Hill days , became a Carolina Tarheel fan in High School , but then I enrolled at NC State . Talk about traveling through the ACC . I can't wait to see college basketball again . I have not seen any since I have been in Germany .

2. Do they air games in Germany?

I think they air tournament games internationally but what about conference tourney or regular season games?

4. Right here!

:hi:

I LOVE college basketball. My favorite sport without question.

I'm a big UConn men's and women's fan. Even saw the women win in person at the Final Four twice (2000 and 2003).

5. I am not much of a woman's basketball fan

But I do like watching the Uconn's women team when I get a chance too, I also enjoyed watching Tennessee when they had Chamiqua Holsclaw(that how you spell her name?) in the past.

7. Chamique's a great player...

But Taurasi is, dare I say it, even better!

6. Its my favorite sport too .

( sorry if I am posting all over this thread but I love March Madness )

Whenever the ACC Tournament or any of the Regional NCAA Tournaments are held in my city , my friends and I would get excuse notes from our parents and drive to the coliseum to watch the teams during their daily practices . Or sometimes we were lucky and the teams would use our High School gym to practice and everyone would find every excuse to get to the gym . Whenever the ACC Tournament or the NCAA was on TV , we did not do a bit of schoolwork in classes - elementary , middle nor high school . I remember in the 10 th grade meeting both Dean Smith ( Carolina ) and Coach K ( Duke ) in the same week . Coming from North Carolina thats like meeting the Knights of the Roundtable .

8. Count me as a big college BB fan

I don't care for pro BB, however, March madness is the greatest sporting event in the country. As an OU fan, I follow the Sooners(both men and women) as well as the other Big 12 teams. Last Sat. the Sooners actually did win(BB, that is) when they beat Mich. State in OT. Thursday night the men play Purdue. Both the men and women are ranked 14th in AP.

In the "for what it's worth" category, an informal poll of men who watch women's BB, not only for the excitement of the game, but also appreciate the scenery, OU's head coach Sherri Coale is ranked numero uno.:)

9. I seen that OU Michigan State game

It was very exciting.

10. OU did win Sat. didn't they.....LOL

Everyone just got confused and thought the Sooners lost....maybe they did in football.

OU's got a real young team this year and should get better as the season progresses.

11. ACC Country here

There is no other than THE UNIV. OF NORTH CAROLINA !!!

I'm excited to have Roy back where he belongs. GO HEELS !!

[BelleCarolinaPeridot]

12. Thats one team I am looking forward to seeing this season .

I am also glad that Roy is back with the Tarheels . Its about damn time :hi: But what can I say , I attend a rival school lol .

15. Heels is right

They're all heels in my book, but then, I like REAL basketball, as played in the Bluegrass State. heh heh heh

And before you say it, Laettner shoulda bee T'd for stomping Aminu in '92. DUke, UNC...they're all wannabees - 'cept for Jimmy V's legacy team. His brother saw the light and came to Louisville - the second best team in the world.

13. Puh-leze

I'm from Kentucky. Need I say more?

[BelleCarolinaPeridot]

14. Bucktucky !

Just joking ! I always liked the Kentucky - Duke matchups myself . :hi:

[alwynsw]

16. Aw, we;re used to it

we get that sort of thing all the time from folks who wish that they had the winningest team in NCAA BB. (Div. I and II - I'll let ya Google the Div. II team)

[alwynsw]

17. When will the NCAA say "Good Night" to Bobby?

Let's face it: the man's actions have been an embarrassment to organized sports.

Thoughts?
