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

Anyone want to do an over-under on how long the NCAA recognizes this one?

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.

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.

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!

I wonder if UK will turn down the trip to DC. After all, the president didn't pick them to win.

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]
Cal has one on the 90s and 00s. Time for one in the 10s...
