Ray Fittipaldo's Pitt basketball chat transcript: 3.10.2010
Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, Pittsburgh Post-Gazette on March 10th
Ray Fittipaldo:Welcome to the Pitt basketball chat live from the Big East tournament. Fire away with questions.PittFanDave:Hi Ray. I saw your Q&A post today regarding Dixon's use of timeouts. When I saw the topic, I thought for sure it would be in reference to his end of game timeouts against Providence. The Friars tied the game with 35 seconds left, and Dixon calls a timeout with the ball under the opposing basket. A move that I hate since it allows the defense to get set up. I much prefer to see them get the ball past half court before calling ...

From 347 to 65: Bubble Breakdown by Joe Sheehan
Joe Sheehan, Basketball Prospectus on March 10th
Butler saved a spot by waxing Wright State, which made any number of teams on the bubble happy. Well, not Charlotte and Connecticut, who removed themselves from consideration with bad losses that capped ugly ends to their seasons. Cincinnati and Seton Hall tried, very hard, to reach the same fate by managed to pull out wins in at the Garden over bad teams, and live to see another day.Finally, North Texas and Oakland won their conference championships and the automatic bids that go with them. This changes nothing on the bubble, but congratulations just the same.Here?s where we stand through ...

A Celebration of Excellence....
Paul Zeise, Redshirt Diaries on March 10th
This is a Pitt blog and we will certainly get back in the swing of things around here next week when Pitt Spring Football begins, but in the mean time, let me take a few moments to expand the parameters of this to include one of my other beats - women's basketball.The Pitt women's team will, for the first time since 2006, not be in the NCAA Tournament and it isn't because they aren't talented enough to be there. They are and they should be there but they aren't going to be there because they lack a very critical intangible that ...

Pirates Alive for Big East, NCAAs
Adam Zagoria, ZagsBlog on March 10th
NEW YORK – Seton Hall remains alive in the Big East tournament and alive for an NCAA tournament berth. But they didn’t make it easy on themselves. The No. 10 Pirates blew a 29-point second-half lead and advanced to the second round of the Big East with a 109-106 victory over No. 15 Providence after Friars freshman Duke Mondy missed a potential game-tying 3-pointer at the buzzer. “Luckily Mondy missed and the ball came off,” Seton Hall coach Bobby Gonzalez said. “To get an ...
