I
don’t care what your brackets look like everyone wants to see Duke win or
should I say Zion Williamson. I haven’t rooted for a Duke team ever in my life
and unless the Bulls get the number one pick in the draft I might regret
rooting for them now. How they weren’t part of the admissions scandal is beyond
me. That people are surprised at the scandal more that they got caught. Wonder
of wonders how the names end up on the buildings on campuses. And the laughable
idea that somehow diplomas are diminished because of it. If your team doesn’t
get the number one pick or aren’t in the top four or five teams to get into the
lottery you’re watching for the other players your team might pick for need.
Whoever gets Williamson might not actually need a big man but the pundits call
him a generational talent. Not likely to surpass Jordan or Lebron in the
conversation of the greatest of all time but they’re ready to put up a bust of
him in the Hall of Fame. Since there is no NBA hall of fame but the basketball
hall of fame do we need to parse between college or the Pro’s? I wouldn’t lock
up the people who paid money for their kid to rip off some just as deserving or
more deserving kid but the people who perpetrated the scam should definitely be
behind bars. The shame of what these parents have done won’t be washed off
anytime soon. So watch probably the best tournament in a decade because of so
many teams are losing on purpose for the crazy level of talent in this year’s
tournament regardless of seeding. But be sure college sports might never be the
same. While the small state schools are struggling because they have a
direction in their names Northern or Southern something or other and the
education is just as valuable. I always said the NCAA was corrupt apparently so
are the parents.
