VCU is totally without class, they should be ashamed

Disagree 110%.  With all the upsets that have happened throughout the year and the sure upsets that will happen throughout the tournament, I would want my team playing in one gear only, from start to finish. It's the one way to ensure that even if we did lose, it wasn't because we let off the pedal like so many top tier teams do....and then sit there in awe afterwards at how they could have let it get away from them.  In saying that, I would've probably put in all reserves....but I'd be telling them as well that I want to see intensity, focus, etc etc. 

Save the empathy for the reg season...now is the time of year you want your players in one mindframe from tip to finish...just my opinion...

This is what is called taking momentum into the next game.

Classy is not a word that pops to mind for about 75% of college coaches. Most do not get to where they are by being classy - they get there by winning. And they will do whatever is necessary to win, classy or not.

However.

When you have to play a game in less the 48 hours against a higher seed, having your starters in the game when up by 50 points and less than 10 minutes to play is probably the stupidest coaching move of the day, maybe the week.

IF a kid had turned an ankle, took a fall I would hope Smart would have been fired on the spot. As it is I can only hope a kid sustained a minor injury that affects his play Saturday.

He probably still should be when they lose to Michigan.

Karma is a girl. So is running your starters into the ground in a blowout.

Nice job of keeping your guys sharp and playing with an edge.

If I don't win another bet all day I don't care. VCU losing has made my day.
