Hola, amigos

Been a while, I know. Life is getting in the way of obsessing over college hoops. Never thought I'd see the day.

I was incredibly satisfied to West Virginia beat down Kentucky, Michigan State return to the Final Four, and to witness Butler's stunning run. I'm not sure who I'll be rooting for on Saturday. Obviously, like all decent people, I'll be rooting against Duke, but MSU-Butler? Tough call, I like Butler's small-school moxie, but how can a Big Ten fan not love the thrilling wins that Izzo's hobbled club is stringing together?

This has been truly a great tournament to watch, the most enjoyable in years.
