(Chicago, IL) – United Center is cool. As you would imagine the seats inside are Blackhawk & Bulls red and black. The security people around the building are very helpful to this lost St. Louisian, and the wind, well it’s windy! I practically got knocked down walking from the parking lot to the entrance. But I’m inside!
Iowa State is first up on the court and then they’ll head to the interview spaces. We’ll have comments from former Murray State Head Coach Steve Prohm up on the site soon. He obviously isn’t under any huge pressure in this bigger stage. While practice is going on, he’s carrying around a child.
Virginia is second on the interview schedule. While that is going on, I’ll be looking for former Saint Louis University Head Coach and current Cavalier assistant Brad Soderberg. I’m looking forward to catching up with one of the genuinely good guys in the sport.
Gonzaga, the only team from outside the power conferences will be a part of the process today. So we’ll try to find out how Mark Few keeps the program humming.
Syracuse is the final team. Suspensions aside, they are a dangerous team in this tournament. We’ll keep you up to date on all the happenings in Chicago!
Do Good

Three more road wins so far in @ValleyHoops as @BradleyUMBB @BelmontMBB & @UIC_MBB capture road wins. Looks like @DrakeBulldogsMB will do so too. #FatherHarry
Well @RacersWBB followed the men's example and swept Iowa in the @ValleyHoops race! Racers are 6-1 & if @BelmontWBB holds on to their Iowa sweep, the Bruins and Racers will be tied for first. What a trip for those two teams! #FatherHarry
After today's action, @EIUWBB is 8-0 in @OVCSports play. 4 teams @usiwbb @TTUWBB @LRTrojans @LindenwoodWBB are tied at 6-2. Six other teams are under .500. Great race to the finish lies ahead. #FatherHarry
Really entertaining game between @BelmontMBB & @UEAthletics_MBB. Under four minutes left in a one point game. Gabriel Pozzato back in the Aces' lineup. Rogers is playing like I've expected. Triples are dropping. It's fun and @kylejpeach bringing it on #ThePlus #FatherHarry
