entries, but who woulda thought that Tunji Awojobi would have been
chosen as many times as Keith Van Horn - 6?!?

Awojobi turned out to be the biggest bust. Billte and I watched that
BU-Tulsa game, and BU made a solid claim to the title of "worst team
in the tournament". They were horrible in every department...

299.32 | BU was pathetic | GLRMAI::WILKES | | Mon Mar 17 1997 14:26 | 7 |
| re: -1
Agree with you 100 %, Awojobi looked liked a product of the Boston
media hype machine. His NBA stock plunged like Centenial Technologies.
The only BU player who looked like he belonged on the court with Tulsa
was Joey Beard ( must be because he passed thru the Duke program ).

I just got lucky and tried something, that would work with the new
rules. As usual I picked my final 4 (Kentucky, Kansas, Cincinnati, and
South Carolina), then added Tim Duncan. Giving me 2 #1's, 1 #2, and 2
#3's. Its a known fact that a 10, 11, or 12 seed usually wins in the
1st round. Since Nazz was giving out triple pts for those teams. I
looked at all the 10, 11, and 12 seeds. Out of those 12 teams, I only
liked College of Charleston, Providence, and Texas to win there games.
As luck would have it all three teams won in the 1st round. I was only
expecting 1 of them to wina game. Plus, I got 33 pt games from Freeman
and Brown.
