Joe O'Shea gets TOS Bryant's first D1 post-season victory (according to article, is that correct?):

On the buzzer beater, watch TOS will his nephew's buzzer beater in the hoop at the end of regulation. Way to go Tim.

Go Bryant, beat Bobby Mo.

Nice to see TOS doing well in a locale to his wife's liking. I think I speak for most OHIO fans in saying that we didn't really have hard feelings against the man when he left. This was truly a case of "family considerations" and he did an honorable job while at OHIO, though local fans never really warmed to him due to his East Coast ways. If this Bryant job had not come along, he might still be our coach, and we might or might not have had a Sweet 16 run. He's a good enough coach for one, if everything had fallen into place.

Incredible ending, I love this stuff. Makes me wish I didn't have a life and could just watch every game these next couple weeks.

You can see TOS on the sidelines in the video with similar moves to Leon's buzzer beater to win the MAC. All shows life on neutral courts and life at home beats life on the road.

Heading to Robby MO for the next round. Life on the road continues.

Glad to see the fam doing well and nephew getting to play at the next level.

never argue with idiots, they bring you down to their level and beat you with experience.

Without doubt, I agree with this. Part of me really believes that the week of conference tournaments is better than the Big Dance. I love the games like this one when it's win or go home. I think the intensity and emotion in the building when it comes to post season basketball is second to none in American sports.

I love it as well. The rivalry aspect really gives the conference tourneys a little extra grit. That being said my favorite day of the year is that first Thursday of the NCAA tourney.

It's way more fun. They don't have the excitement and spirit of the event sterilized like the NCAA tournament.

I like the first Thursday, and the week of conference tournaments for two separate reasons. The first Thursday at a bar (or man cave) all day with friends is always outstanding. But solely for great basketball, I still like the coming week for what it means to the teams that survive and advance.

The first Thursday is my favorite. It's similar to the first Saturday of college football for me. Just sit at a bar in front of multiple TVs and by the end of the day you are totally drained.

My buddy has told me so many stories about the first Thursday out at the Sportsbook in Vegas. I guess it's absolutely insane. Just chaos with every bucket, missed shot, steal, dunk, etc. One of the most popular bets out there is the "first to 15" bet, which is obviously the first team to 15 points. Can't imagine how awesome that would be to play from game to game to game, especially if you keep winning and roll it up.
