**************************
Sunday?s Den: Wrapping up a busy Saturday??.
Saint Peter?s 70, Murray State 60:
? Saint Peter?s first-ever NCAA tourney wins were both this week.
? Peacocks never trailed; they held Murray State to 34.6% from floor.
? 15-seeds to make the Sweet 16:
2013? Florida Gulf Coast
2021? Oral Roberts
2022? Saint Peter?s
Bad news for Saint Peter?s: There is no way in hell Shaheen Holloway will be the coach at Saint Peter?s next season, The big money $chool$ will come calling.
Gonzaga 82, Memphis 78:
? Memphis led this game 41-31 at halftime.
? Timme had 25 points, 11 rebounds for Gonzaga.
? Very intense, spirited contest; seemed like a Final Four game.
Arkansas 53, New Mexico State 48:
? Razorbacks held Aggies star Teddy Allen to 12 points.
? Arkansas won despite shooting 27.5% from floor.
? Razorbacks move on to play Gonzaga Thursday.
North Carolina 93, Baylor 86, OT:
? Carolina led 67-42 with 10:20 left in regulation.
? Tar Heels made 11-25 on arc, 26-37 on foul line, needed OT to win.
? Baylor made only 9-37 shots on the arc.
Kansas 79, Creighton 72:
? Jayhawks scored last six points to salt game away.
? Bluejays were down two starters; they shot 12-28 on arc, 9-31 inside arc. ? Three guys on Creighton played all 40:00.
Michigan 76, Tennessee 68:
? Michigan trailed 37-32 at half; they were down 15 in Thursday?s win.
? Tennessee shot 2-18 on arc; hard to win that way.
? Last four years, #3-seeds are 5-11 ATS in second round.
Providence 79, Richmond 51:
? Friars were 12-22 on arc, Richmond 1-22 (8-21 on foul line)
? Spiders shot 64.5% inside arc and still lost by 28.
? Providence advances to play Kansas in Sweet 16.
UCLA 79, Saint Mary?s 72:
? UCLA won 10 of its last 12 games.
? Bruins shot 59.5% inside arc.
? UCLA star Juzang re-injured his ankle (check status)
Elsewhere in the world???
5) Some baseball teams are spending lot of money??.
? Phillies gave OF Nick Castellanos $100M for five years.
? Phillies also gave OF/DH Kyle Schwarber a 4-year for just under $20M/year.
? Twins gave SS Carlos Correa $105M for three years.
? Braves gave closer Kenley Jansen $16M for one year.
Phillies? on-base %age from their leadoff spot last year was their lowest since 2009, which is why the Schwarber signing is a big deal.
4) Cleveland Browns traded three first-round picks and couple other picks to Houston, in exchange for QB Deshaun Watson. Browns are 30-31 with Baker Mayfield as their starter, a vast improvement from the pre-Mayfield years.
Watson didn?t play last year because of his legal issues; he figures to be suspended for at least six games. Texans were 29-27 with Watson starting at QB.
3) Las Vegas Raiders traded a first round pick to Green Bay for WR Davante Adams, re-uniting him with his college QB, Derek Carr. Adams will make $67.5M for three years, with lot more available in incentives. Plus, I?m guessing it is more fun to live in Las Vegas than Green Bay.
2) Saturday was a busy day for the Super Bowl champion LA Rams:
? Matthew Stafford signed a four-year, $160M contract extension.
? Rams traded WR Robert Woods to Tennessee for a draft pick; this is a tough one. Woods was a great Ram; he blocks well, is a productive receiver, great teammate. He will be missed.
1) College basketball coaching moves:
? Louisville hired Knicks? assistant Kenny Payne as its new coach.
? Florida hired San Francisco coach Todd Golden
? USF replaced Golden with assistant Chris Gerlufsen.
? Rhode Island hired former Indiana coach Archie Miller.
? Xavier hired Archie?s brother Sean to be its hoop coach (again)
