    I'll wade into the Ben mile time. At 45 years old I was running 5:30s in training for a marathon. And I wasn't in athlete level shape. So I don't know what Ben ran, but 5:19 is not it. I'm sure it a good way under that time.

    I hope Louisville has enough coaching to make the tournament and play us. I was in Indy in 89. First 2 rounds. Louisville was there. Their fans talked a bunch of smack (next to me) until we gave them the beatdown they deserved. Never nervous Pervis. Great player but.... Then in 2005 Pitino...
