#12 ranked Fresno ST, 29-7, for the title. On paper it’s not close. They have an outstanding Center but we’re better at every other position and our bench is much better.
4/3: 72-60 and our 4th national championship! We trailed by 15 with 13:22 to play. I used my next to last time out, raised hell in a major way, reminded them of a couple of things and watched as my guys took charge. 25 for Mosh, 17, 12 for Preo. +14 RBs, +8 TOs. It’s nice to win another title! I am the 5th coach to win 4 NCAA championships, so I’m in good company!

35-1 and the national title. Overall, 667-160, .807.
Murders continue to increase. There is a great deal of concern about that while, at the same time, the gun lobby works to make gun ownership easier, and more sophisticated and powerful guns available.
The anti-reproductive rights groups are also making a lot of noise. Two of their law suits have made it to the courts and both were defeated.
