On the bright side, I no longer have to hear about CATLANTA. Now it will be reports from the "True Blue Bayou." L-)

You can always congratulate the UK faithful on the first FF appearance by Calipari - at least, for as long as the NCAA lets them recognize it. :ymdevil:

Do we need to hire armed guards for IlJ, Lavabe, and LegacyLady?

A large number of people were jailed last night (as stated in various news reports). Gunshot victim lost a foot (amputation).

I'd say a wee bit worse than the norm for the Terp fans. :-o

Don't some of these places measure the success or failure of a celebration, by the number of deaths and/or injuries? :-?

I'm pretty sure that's the yardstick they use for the motorcycle rallies in Myrtle Beach. :twitch:

As much as I wanted Kansas to win the National Championship, and not Kentucky...... at least the 2012 Banner is not hanging in the rafters down 15/501!

Has there ever been a team that has been forced to vacate their NCAA championship in men's basketball?
:-?
Just wondering.

No. But, here are final 4 appearances that have been vacated:

Vacated Final Four appearances

1961 - St. Joseph's*'s vacated their Final Four appearance due to players' involvement in a point-shaving scandal.
1971 - Villanova vacated their NCAA tournament victories after it was discovered that tournament MOP Howard Porter had signed a pro contract with an ABA team during the season.
1971 - Western Kentucky* vacated after it was found that Jim McDaniels had signed a pro contract to play for an ABA team and accepted money during the season.
1980 - UCLA vacated its participation in the Final Four due to the use of ineligible players.
1985 - Memphis State's (now Memphis) Final Four appearance was vacated due to using ineligible players, as were all NCAA tournament appearances from 1982-1986.
1992 & 1993 - Michigan vacated the results of 114 games won while four players, Chris Webber, Maurice Taylor, Robert Traylor and Louis Bullock were not eligible, including both Final Fours.[1] For more details, see University of Michigan basketball scandal.
1996 - Massachusetts* Final Four appearance was vacated due to Marcus Camby signing with an agent during the season.
1997 - Minnesota* vacated their Final Four appearance and many of their games between 1996 and 1999 due to their use of ineligible players who had school work completed by school assistants.
1999 - Ohio State vacated their Final Four appearance as punishment for the actions of former coach Jim O'Brien.
2008 - Memphis vacated their entire season, including Final Four, when the NCAA retroactively declared Derrick Rose ineligible after his SAT was invalidated by the Educational Testing Service after the season.[2][3]
