I'd like to see JMU win for a few reasons

[cliftonparksufan]

Obviously we want Indiana to lose for a million reasons but the head coach of JMU is a former Siena point guard, Matt Brady and one of his assistants is Mike Deane who many of you are familiar with. Also would really like to see Iona win over OSU. That could actually happen.

I'd like to see JMU win entirely because, other than Syracuse, that's the only other school I applied to. I also got an awesome financial aid package from them to come study in their communications program but chose to pay twice as much to go to SU and ultimately NOT study communications despite the fact that's what I wanted to do.

And why? The Syracuse Orangemen. SU sports are approximately 98% of why I chose Syracuse.

I'd like to see them win because I teach at JMU. It's rare to really enjoy the place where you're employed, but this university truly is a great place to work, and the students are fantastic. This team has also come together in the latter part of the year. Really solid nucleus of players, and with all of that said, they will lose by at least 20 today. Zeller will have a field day, but JMU's best days are in front of them. They have some great freshmen and sophomores who will be poised to make a real run in the tourney in a couple of years.

Id like to see them win because i hate indiana.

 

[Cheriehoop]

Wow Mike Deane. So he's an assistant at JMU.Bobby Knight copied his throw the chair across the court act while Deane was at Oswego State. He had some excellent teams - Siena, Marquette then was it Lamar? He seemed to have some health issues - maybe revolving around his eyes at one time. How is he now?

Brady was also head coach at my alma mater Marist College and brought them two regular season MAAC championships I believe (could never when the conference tourney though). Oh also becuase I cannot stand IU going back to 87 and I was there to witness it live ugh!

Because my sister went to JMU for her undergrad studies. Nice campus and people.
Because i don't want to see Indiana.

 

[realorange]

Because my son got his doctorate at JMU. Because I want to see Crean get hauled away in a straight jacket when they lose.

9-0 IU...so much for wishful thinking. :noidea:

I'm also routing for James Madison because of Zelda Zonka's sister.

I'd like to see them win, because then no one would talk about SU being the first 2 seed to lose in the first round. No one would get past Indiana being the first 1 seed to lose in the first round. I'm selfish that way.

Marsh, I know you hate Indiana for good reason. You hate uconn, and I know you aren't a big fan of duke either. Are there any schools you remotely care for besides us?

 

[Lawrinson14]

If we get to face them, Indiana is an awful matchup for us. Wofford can just sit at the ft line a make that shot all day.

 

[PoppyHart]

Sorry, but Kent Culoko is Not walking through the door.
