Richey | Time to go mad for March

The NCAA tournament was my favorite sporting event on the calendar long before I started covering college basketball for a living.

North Carolina beating San Diego State in the First Four still makes it a tie with Indiana for the team West Virginia hates most.

Alabama State already provided the first “wow’s moment of March with its incredible Hail Mary game-winner.

The oldest player in the tournament — and the entire sport — is actually BYU 's Trevin Knell , who celebrated his 26th birthday last September .

St. John’s is this close to an undefeated season, with four losses by a combined eight points.

Will Wade took a “strong (expletive) offer” with the McNeese coach set to become the new coach at North Carolina State after the NCAAs.

Colorado State was an NCAA tournament afterthought just a month ago , but 10 straight wins and a Mountain West tournament title has turned the Rams into a potential Cinderella .

Yale ’s James Jones has called Yale home since 1999 and has the Bulldogs in the tournament for the fifth time since 2016 .

Boogie Fland hasn’t played since Jan. 18 and his thumb injury was supposed to be a season ender.
