Good afternoon from beautiful Albany New York, where I will be courtside for these games:
#12 VCU v #5 Saint Mary’s
#13 Iona v #4 UConn
#12 Drake v #5 Miami
#13 Kent State v #4 Indiana
Obviously, the game of interest for many of our readers will be the UConn/ Iona one, featuring a Big East squad and an Iona squad that people love for their consistent winning ways. And also their head coach, Rick Pitino, who has become a person of interest for the Red Storm fans.
Pitino, despite being at Iona, draws national attention.
