I hope they make it, but that being said, people still will be talking about this?

Ohio State was placed on three years' probation Friday and ordered to erase all references to its 1999 trip to the Final Four and three other tournament appearances under former coach Jim O'Brien.

The decision by the NCAA does not affect this season's team, which is 24-4 and ranked seventh in the country. The announcement came about two hours before the top-seeded Buckeyes' 63-56 win over Penn State in the quarterfinals of the Big Ten tournament in Indianapolis.

True saw that during the game, the probation is for all the sports ladies and mens.

Seven violations involved the men's basketball program under O'Brien. The other two involved women's basketball and football.

Not like they got cars...dental work of all things....

Five women's basketball players received free dental work totaling $13,760 in violation of NCAA bylaws. Troy Smith, the star quarterback in the Buckeyes' victories over Michigan the past two years, received $500 from a booster.

Congrats to the Gamecocks. They outplayed and outhustled the Vols all afternoon and deserved to win. It certainly didn't help that the Vols couldn't get anything to fall either. Chris Lofton, our sharpshooter, was shutout at the half and had about 5 points when I left with about a minute left.

My time and money would have been better spent getting a colonoscopy. And it would have been just as enjoyable too.

Hopefully we can fare much better in the NCAAs as I'm afraid that we've played ourselves down to a 4 or 5 seed.

But the Vols will still make the selection cut on Sunday.

OK, less than 4 hours till the selections.

Who will be the overall #1 seed..UConn or Duke?

OK Here they are.....

Good to see some "new" teams in it, instead of the same old same old.

Yup, congrats to the Aggies, but...

my Missouri State Bears got a kick to the gut... again.

Best RPI in the conference, and no love.

Still, we shoulda played better in the conference tournament.

Oh well, NIT here we come!

You're welcome. I think the ESPN one should have been printable too.

go ahead and add me to that list. I'll set up my bracket once I get the password.

Go Xavier - Sealed the deal on the Alantic 10. woohoo!!!!

A quick look at the Brackets......and it appears Duke has the easiest Bracket........I was surprised that Villanova was the top seed of the #1's......i would of thought Duke.......My UCONN Huskies have a intresting 2nd round game with Kentucky!!

Add me


I didnt like Msu's place at first , but now Im loving it!! I like the matchups and the fact we play in Dayton- alot of people will be making the trip and being in Big Ten country we should get some extra love against UNC.

oh............and we play on St Pats day!!!!!! Go Green Go white, kiss me Im a spartan.

As a dyed in wool Vol, there is NO WAY that we should have been a 2 seed. A 3 maybe if you consider the season as a whole and overlook our late season swoon. But I'll take it. I hope we can get past Winthrop and then probably Witchita State. I'd love to play UNC or Michigan State.

Still can't believe that UK (if they can get past a pesky UAB team) will draw UConn.
