Hurray!

As you all can probably guess I am pretty excited about the Jayhawks making it to the Final Four. It was a close heart wrenching game with that close of a score the entire time. They also had a lot of people rooting against them for a couple of reasons. The first being that people did not want just number one seeds in the finals. The second being that people wanted the Cinderella story of number ten seed Davidson continuing. The Jayhawks crushed the hearts of all those aforementioned by taking the win.
Now that the team is continuing they are playing the North Carolina Tar Heels. This is interesting because the North Carolina coach is Roy Williams (as you all probably know) who you might or might not know coached for the Jayhawks. Williams coached 15 seasons at Kansas from 1988-2003. After taking the Jayhawks to face Syracuse in the NCAA championship game and losing Williams left for UNC.
This caused an uproar in the Kansas University community. People felt betrayed by him especially some of the players. This distraught has all but been forgotten. Bill Self has kept the reputation of the university’s basketball team alive. And even Self has been accepted although rumors fly about the town about him having a toupee. It is one fine looking toupee if it is one or maybe he just has a hair phobia?
Anyway, I cannot wait for the show down between Williams and Self. It is going to be a grand game. I also cannot help feeling that the Jayhawks might be doomed against the mega-force that is the Tar Heels, but that won’t keep me from screaming at the television screen.
