    Yes, you are right. The only tournament game cancelled due to Covid was the first round game March 20 between #10 seed VCU and #7 seed Oregon after VCU had at least 3 players test positive before the game.

    Saturday's scheduled first-round men's NCAA tournament game between Oregon and VCU has been declared a no-contest because of multiple positive COVID-19 tests within the Rams program. The Ducks automatically advance to the second round.

      I thought this whole tournament was lackluster from start to finish.
      Throw in a handful of good games (but no more than like 5), and it was probably the worst I can remember since I started watching the tourney in 1986.

      I hope that next year will be better (closer) games, the pairings in 1st/2nd round are better, and that we have more fans present.

      It was great that the season ran its course pretty well from start to finish, but it was such a disappointing year (didn't help that our Braves were a mess).
      Looking forward to brighter days ahead.

        This kind of hiring technique is actually a lot more common than most fans have heard of. Oklahoma State landed Cade Cunningham last year, maybe the top freshman in the country and possibly the #1 NBA draft pick in the 2021 NBA Draft. They landed him by hiring his older brother as an assistant coach, despite the fact his coaching resume was rather minimal. Well, it worked, and Oklahoma State was transformed from a team with a losing Big 12 record in 2019-20, to a Top 15 team, and a trip to the NCAA Tournament this year....
        This doesn't surprise anyone.... Now that Oklahoma State got elite recruit Cade Cunningham for 1 year, he is leaving to enter the NBA Draft, where he is certain to be one of the top couple picks. His older brother, who was hired as an assistant coach to help land Cade, has now been let go.

        The only way he will ever get a college coaching job again is if he has another elite younger brother.
