Gone too soon, Seminoles/Blue Devils/Fighting Irish/Hurricanes/hoo boy this list is pretty long.
• How did Michigan and North Carolina’s performances in the Round of 32 affect their tournament ceilings?
• What does Kansas assistant coach Norm Roberts have in mind for defending Purdue star Caleb Swanigan, and how will it affect the somewhat thin Jayhawk frontcourt?

• How have frontcourt players taken over the tournament traditionally known for guard play, and who specifically has stood out?
