NCAA Tournament Round 2: VCU vs. Pitt (-6.5)

On Pitt:

I had the pleasure of (very briefly) meeting Jamie Dixon while he was recruiting Ronald Ramon. Dixon comes across as a likeable, honest guy who is very concerned about his players. he's obviously a very good college coach. To me, the fact that he recruited Ramon speaks very highly to his character as well.

Ramon, a junior, #4, comes off the bench for Pitt. He is a very gifted shooter, but lacks a little in D-1 size and athleticism. He was one of the smartest basketball players I've seen at the high school level which can be attributed to his great attitude and from tutelage from his father and coach John Carey.

It's absolutely impossible for me not to cheer for Pitt because I know this kid. Absolutely one of the classiest young men I ever had the pleasure to be around. He doesn't get a whole lot of publicity, but I thought that I should mention this so people would know while watching Pitt in the tourney.
