One more daily thread to toss out, again trying to capitalize on something I (thankfully) have plenty of in my home: Books.

With its victory over North Carolina, 11th-seeded VCU becomes the first program to beat both Duke and North Carolina as a double-digit seed at some point in its history. Rams pulled an 11/6 surprise against Duke in Buffalo in 2007.

The best part of the story about Kenny Blakeney and Howard beating N.C. Central in a noon tip and then going down the street to see Duke/Michigan at 6:30? Howard's game was originally a 4:30 tip. Got changed so the Bison could see Blakeney's alma mater land a major victory.

A little is scheduling (Hall 301 NCSOS, DePaul 331). More of it is just winning more games. This may have fluctuated a little, but going into Friday, Big East teams were 7-20 in nonconference Quad 1 games. Take UConn out, and the league was 3-19 in nonconference Quad 1 games.
Now that all of the awesomeness of the Big East Tournament is in the rear view mirror, Val Ackerman needs to get a group text going with the 8 coaches not in the Big Dance to discuss how to schedule better. It's a major problem for a league that is leaning towards mid major.
