By the time Gonzaga's class of 2014 enters their campus, both Kevin Pangos and Gary Bell Jr. will be seniors, and since Mark Few and his staff failed to land a guard in either the 2012 or '13 classes, it is imperative that Gonzaga focus nearly entirely on deepening their backcourt. It has been reported that both Namon Wright and Jordan McLaughlin are being intensely pursued by the Bulldogs, but since there will be plenty of minutes available, the recent commitment of Silas Melson, a 6-foot-2 guard, makes sense.

Are you ready for a lot of stats? Hope so, because we're about to throw a bunch at you, but before we do here's the bottom line: None of this looks good or bodes well for San Antonio and its chances of winning Game 7 in Miami.

Since falling to Alabama in the National Championship Game at the end of the 2009 season, Texas has gone just 22-16. That's not an awful record, but it doesn't live up to the standards that Longhorn fans have grown accustomed to.

We have written frequently regarding Oregon coach Dana Altman's philosophy towards transfers and how ex-Houston wing Joseph Young is reportedly considering Eugene for his final two college seasons. However, while the Ducks may have lost several players from a year ago, we have to wonder what affect these late-spring additions will have on Oregon's scholarship numbers.
