As Memphis Pulls Away From Kansas, Derrick Rose Hits 'The Shot of the Tournament
In a brilliant NCAA Tournament that has made him a star, Memphis freshman Derrick Rose has now had his signature moment in the championship game. It happened with 4:06 remaining and Memphis leading Kansas, 54-49. Rose had the ball and was straddling the three-point line near the left sideline, and with the shot clock running down, he lofted a shot. The buzzer sounded with the ball in the air, ...

Roy Williams Wins the Title!!!…oh wait
Congratulation to the Jayhawks. And congratulations to Bill self for winning despite nearly throwing the game away by inexplicably switching to a zone defense.

Kansas was wearing them down and had the game in control. ...
