And I hope Mrs. Mooney enjoys a few glasses of wine tonight.
I saw her run out and hug him. Wonder if she was thinking “yay we don’t have to move!”
I think she thought that two games ago. I'm sure it's been a long season or two for her.
I will be with y’all in a little while. I am still crying. So happy for these boys.
Her emotion, Theirs kids emotion, priceless!
Can’t wait for selection show. Like a kid on Xmas morning.
They should make a movie! Hoosiers2
Automatic qualifiers not allowed to be put in play-ins.
Pretty sure the 16 seed play ins are always automatic qualifiers? But we won't be a 16 seed.
I stand corrected. But we're not getting play-in since we're not in four lowest AQs.
"When selecting the teams for the NCAA tournament, the NCAA Division I Men's Basketball Committee ranks every team from No. 1 through No. 68. In its current format, the First Four consists of eight teams — the four lowest-seeded automatic qualifiers, and the four lowest-seeded at-large teams. Each subset plays against itself (i.e., at-large teams face at-large teams, and automatic qualifiers face automatic qualifiers)."
Who plays in the men's First Four?

Of course for the local posters going to Greenville or Pittsburgh seems to be the closest. Of course if you're dreaming the East might be best will Philly as the regional site.
I have a gut feeling the Spiders will go deep. If someone told me last Sunday we would beat 1, 2, 3 seeds and knock VCU out of the dance, I would have believed it. This team is on a mission.
No, we're not.
Most likely an 11 or 12 seed, but not in the First Four.
I think we probably slot in at a 12 seed. That's my best guess.
Would love an 11 slot. We need that for trivia contests
Wow wow wow!! My new username is croweater. I will take it. I deserve it.
Guts guts guts at the end. What a great run. A moment that will be remembered for many years. The joy from players and fans was overflowing. Great great moment.

We’re hot we’re confident we can win a game or games too.
I’m still on a high, don’t know when I’m coming down!
We're off to a good start. We knocked somebody out and we didn't even have to play them. Lol. Giant Killers 2.0
Where have you been, great Sage of this board? So happy to see you here….
Calvin Duncan texted Beck to congratulate us, he is a VCU great.
Hard to believe we are speculating on NCAA seeding and possible opponents. 72 hours ago who would have ever believed! Go Spiders!
So happy for the team. They played their asses off. Enjoy it guys, you deserve it!
Hot damn…I’ve been slammed the past two days getting underway with a major family trip to the UK. Wasn’t able to watch either of the games, but couldn’t believe what I was seeing while checking the ESPN app yesterday in airports and then today in London, following the blow-by-blow updates in the final minutes with phone in hand as my family wandered the streets of Soho and Chinatown.
Selection Sunday is so much better knowing our name is going to be called!!
