Amazing how Florida Atlantic rebounded. They have several players on their team that can really jump. Plavsic is a very dirty player, and the refs were watching him closely. Lots of credit to FAU for staying with their game plan. Go Vandy!

Jon Burton from "News" Channel Five looked like he was about to cry reporting on the uut loss.

Wait.... that sports department only actually cries on the air when the titans lose.

At least the chuggers knew how to act like they'd been there before.

I’ll take a sweet 16 “flame out” all day. Glad they lost but they’ve got the jump on us In hoops right now. Hope we can change that

I don't like their team or fans, but I do like Rick Barnes. That said, I was thrilled to wake up this morning and see that they had lost.

I’d be okay with them if not for vescovi and that urine plavsic d-bag. The guy never averaged over 5ppg in four years but he thinks he’s good.

I was very disappointed that they beat Duke and made it to the Sweet 16, but the way they lost in the Sweet 16 made it worth it.

Losing to a no name team, Florida Atlantic. Lol.

Since FDU knocked out the No. 1 seed Purdue in their side of the bracket I was thinking UT would be able to make the Final Four. I thought they’d beat FAU and Kansas State. Thanks FAU for keeping that from happening.

Now if only SDS can defeat the other “thug” team in the SEC, Alabama …

Now let us hope that they run their very good coach off: my hope is that Barnes has a huge buy out but in their infinite wisdom and incredible impatience plus short-sightedness, they fire Barnes and owe him a bundle. I have always liked Barnes and thought he did not belong at UT - too good for them.

I would like to see the second coming of Wade Houston (minus a great basketball playing son).

Conference USA Coaches have figured out the Transfer portal. FAU has three transfers playing while both UAB and North Texas who are in the Final Four of the NIT both have five transfers into the program for this season playing. Good talent evaluation can take you a long way.
With Vanderbilt primarily able to only take Freshman or Graduate transfers, it limits our ability to plug and play somewhat.

The disgusting cheap shot on the FAU 7-footer was as bad as the NHL. Plastic will be playing in the Outer-Mongolia semi-pro league soon and the Russian FAU guy will be playing in the NBA.

I watched the tape of that Plavsic hit on the FAU center. How do you not get thrown out for that?

That no name team had only 3 losses and one was to the team that just beat us knocking us out of the NIT
