Shout-out from Maui

I'm watching (8) Auburn vs. Xavier in the Maui Invitational quarterfinals on ESPN. During their TV promotion for the upcoming Advocare Invitational (Orlando) on Thanksgiving, featuring Villanova in the first game. This lead the announcers into the following discussion "I wouldn't worry too much about Villanova ... Michigan is REALLY good ... but Furman's already beaten Loyola-Chicago - a Final Four team last year - Bob Richey's got a very good basketball team ... I wouldn't worry too much about the Wildcats. They're going to be good."

Got me to wondering whether Coach BR might soon see invitations from some of these high-profile tournaments. Go Paladins!

I heard that too. It was Jay Bilas that said that. That is a pretty good endorsement.
