What app and what device
March Madness Live, on an Apple TV, a Fire Stick, and in browser on 2 MacBook Pros. CBS.com streaming is fine, as is every other service like ESPN, it's not my internet connection
Yeah my march madness app is trash too, having to use login info on the tnt, tbs, trutv apps
The worst app ever, it's so slow on pretty much every device except phones. (Twitter searching the app confirms that pretty much on any device and console)

Had to dust up an old Chromecast and casting to it is working far better

UK always thinks they can get anyone they want. Would you want to work for a fickle fan base, and live in Kentucky? Or live in a non-spoiled fan base, and live in the Catalina Foothills? In any case I would be surprised if CTL would take any other job.

In 10 NCAA tournaments at Kentucky, Cal has 7 Elite Eights, 4 FFs, and obviously 1 title. Who do they think is out there and better than him?

This has to be the happiest Memphis fans have been in a decade. They advance AND get to feast on a gourmet

I think with NIL and the portal, it evens the playing field that elite recruiters had. Calipari is an elite recruiter but I don't think he is a great game coach.

Well, I actually live in CT but I go there occasionally to ski and suck down maple syrup.

But remember, a Catamount is a medium to large sized Wildcat.

I bet UCLA would be motivated if Akron switched into our uniforms at halftime.

Why is UCLA allowing Akron to dictate the pace? They need to speed it up. Of course if they could rebound better they probably could do that
