[ Your right my stats were off a little by less than a single digit you on the other hand said xavier had been to the elite eight 3 times in 4 years which was not even close that is i would say a little worse especially when you were saying that they were better than texas because of this stat which was completely wrong. I have no problem with you correcting my error. Its just that you people from Washington think you should be able to write anything without anyone correcting it. My stat was only off by two and look how it made you react.

Add Houston to the list of Mid-majors that have played for the national title in the lat 30 years.

I have no problem with my stats being corrected but being a little off on the averages compared to the elite eight thing i mean maybe they have been there 3 times in four 4 years but it has not been recently they really have just done ok in the tourny now texas has not done great either but they have done a little better. I know that some mid majors have done well from time to time but we call them cinderalla stories for a reason because normally they dont do very well and a bcs school normally always wins or there are almost always all in the final four. Its great win a mid major team makes it and i would love to see butler do it but the fact is its not expected out of them and if a team like duke or unc or any of the other top programs doesnt make it to a final four most people say that their season was a failure.

Actually my error isn't as great as you are saying. Xavier has been to the elite eight 2 times in the last 5 years with another sweet sixteen appearance, and a second round loss to Ohio state's runner-up team. A game they led the whole way and loss to some questionable calls at the end. This years team has a couple of the best big men in the country in Luv and Frease along with Indiana transfer Jordan Crawford.

Just wondering, Do I get to count the old college division national champions? If so we can really rack up the mid-major national champions. I think we should because they are a lot more legit than those 3a titles you guys like to call state championships.

You answered my question wrong. The boys played in the hall-of-fame , where Washington got a good beating like they normally do when they play a 4a school. Thanks for reminding me of how the Carmel girls put it on you guys too.

Gordon is a great player, watch alot of games he played in pre Butler days, but mrmiaygi you are putting him on a throne always trying to say he is "better: than the Zellar kid, why cant all of you just exept that they are both great players! Put in in a TRUE post battle Zellar wins get 19' away from the basket Hayword wins hands down

I really don't see where saying Hayward is better than Zeller is putting Hayward on a throne. If thats the case every sports writer in America is putting Hayward on a throne. I would take Hayward over Zeller at any position on the court. There is no way Zeller could gaurd Hayward but Hayward could do a very good job of gaurding Zeller.
