    NC State - First Final 4 in 41 years
    Alabama - First Final 4 ever
    Purdue - First Final 4 in 44 years

    Last year San Diego State, FAU, and Miami (FL) all made their first Final 4 appearances ever.

    Like I said earlier there's plenty of parity in college basketball. If you're a small(ish) school looking to make your mark in college athletics the ROI is much more appealing in basketball than in football (or any other sport for that matter).

    Not in the same way Butler or George Mason or TCU were. With the exception of a few teams, most schools don't make the Final Four very often. The P6 schools still have talent and depth which is why they often get 7 or 8 teams in the tournament. They definitely weren't in without winning the ACC tournament.

    If someone has a couple of extra million lying around, how about buying out DR's contract first ........

    This is the correct answer. We could buy UConn's team and not win the Summit.
    North Dakota State, a football team the big boys of college football should avoid like the plague, helped christen a $90 million renovation to Snyder Family Stadium — including a statue of famed Kansas State coach Bill Snyder himself — by taking a sledgehammer to the place.

    True, I mean we couldn't even crack .500 with Grant on the team last year.

    Grant's brother Leif transfered to USC for his senior year throwing the javelin for the Trojan track team.
    Currently, he has the 11th best throw in the nation:
    239' 11".
    NDSU record is 254' 2".
