Wharton Class 32 March Madness

Two thumbs up to March Madness on-demand.

I gotta say that March Madness on-demand on the internet this year has changed WEMBA. What was better than watching jerky streaming video clips of your favorite Cinderella teams during class last session? Kudos to the IT staff for not blocking streaming video access. And the profs seemed to like getting the updates of their favorite teams real time. Awesome! (Note to next year's class: get a privacy screen for your laptop).

My boys at UCLA almost bowed out to Texas A&M, but thankfully Kevin Love and Darren Collison came up huge down the stretch. With "Puke" (er, I mean, Duke) doing a choke job in the second round as a #2 seed in the West along with the early round upsets by Western Kentucky and San Diego, the Bruins are looking like they have a third straight run to the Final Four baby! Looks like a third meeting with Stanford in the Elite Eight.

After two rounds of the NCAA men's college basketball March Madness, here's the standings of the Wharton Class 32 pool:
