@RichEisenShow @SethOnHoops Otherwise a great preview.

@RichEisenShow @SethOnHoops Once again, Houston barely gets a mention. You don’t have to believe me. Just watch the tournament unfold.

💻 @SethOnHoops The ESPN analyst breaks down the South and East regions following the wild first two rounds of the #NCAATournament — is Duke still the favorite? #MarchMadness

The tragic LaGuardia crash hits close to home — rewatching Sully feels real, with Capt. Sullenberger facing impossible choices after takeoff from that very same airport. Heroism in crisis. ✈️🎬 #Sully #LaGuardia

“We’ve taken some of the madness out of March Madness and that doesn’t mean it necessarily has to be worse but I think this weekend it was.” @DannyParkins says the NCAA Tournament is fundamentally changing:

Houston got T’d up down 5 with 75 seconds left. It’s actually unfathomable that Duke didn’t win this game

This is what Houston is all about‼️ From leadership to legendary local partners, the support behind Cougar Basketball is unmatched. Hear from AD Eddie Nuñez and Mattress Mack as we head into the Sweet 16. #ForTheCity

In today’s Chron cartoons “Pearls Before Swine” absolutely nails it. Excellent read if you can find it. One of those comic strips that speaks truth to power. In a comic strip.

@HTee02736181 @glenn_kinley @UHCougarMBK Potential means you ain’t done it yet. Wagler may come through but Flemings has been doing it game. after game, all season long. The Big 12 is absolutely loaded with team talent and it will be on full display when Illinois and Houston tip off.

@glenn_kinley Wagler has a lot of potential. But, has a weak dribble, no midrange jumper, and is a horrible passer. Kingston flemings will own the one on one matchup Illinois wins if they control the post and make their 3s

Thursday will be a meeting of two of the best freshman in America: Illinois' Keaton Wagler vs Houston's Kingston Flemings. Flemings: "He plays with his own pace, it's hard to speed him up. He's the engine to their offensive... He just gets to wherever he wants to get to." (Video from KHOU)

REPOST IF YOUR TEAM IS STILL DANCING 🕺🏀

@glenn_kinley The big difference is Flemings and Houston have played against some of the best Freshman in the country all year long. (Flemings, Cenac, Dybantsa, Peterson, Peat, Burries, Yessoufou, Acuff). Wagner is just another dude at this point. Flemings will not be just another dude to them

Today’s Chron gives readers a full page story on UT’s head basketball coach. One full page. No game. Just the new coach.

@ChronSports @UHCougarMBK What this coverage proves conclusively is the Chron can find plenty to write about even on non-game days. If Bohls can do it I have no doubt Duarte can pull it off.
