Curtin, Herbers talk March Madness

School spirit does end at graduation.

In his conference call earlier today, Head Coach Jim Curtin was asked about his alma mater's (No. 1 Villanova) chances March Madness.

"Of course they're going to repeat," Curtin said. "I think Jay Wright, and the things he's done for Villanova, is special. When it's a one-off, a one and done situation, it's always difficult but obviously Jay Wright has done a heck of a job. We've shared text exchanges before and I'm going to wish him the best of luck. Hopefully they go on another run."

Fabian Herbers even took it one step further, as he opened up a bracket pool for fans to join him in the Madness.
