Reese, Kmac, Pam and Alex discuss if Will Wade's departure help or hurt UNC's job search and they discuss the men's and women's NCAA Tournament. 

Last night saw several tense Sweet 16 games across the men’s bracket. In the West, Purdue edged Texas 79-77 on a last‑second tip‑in to advance to the Elite Eight, while top‑seeded Arizona powered past Arkansas 109-88 behind a strong showing from its freshman stars. In the South, Illinois pulled off an upset over No. 2 Houston (65-55) behind a dominant second‑half run and will face Iowa, which battled back from a double‑digit deficit to win 77-71. These results set the stage for intriguing Elite Eight matchups and potential Final Four favorites to emerge.

Tonight’s slate keeps the Sweet 16 rolling with some marquee games. St. John’s will take on Duke, a matchup that will test whether the Red Storm can continue their upset run or if the Blue Devils’ top seed asserts itself. Meanwhile, UConn faces Michigan State, a classic Big East vs. Big Ten showdown with Final Four implications. In other action, Alabama meets Michigan and Iowa State battles Tennessee, each game offering potential bracket‑busting storylines and defining moments as teams push toward the Elite Eight.
