SportsFilter: The Tuesday Huddle:
A place to discuss the sports stories that aren't making news, share links that aren't quite front-page material, and diagram plays on your hand. Remember to count to five Mississippi before commenting in anger.
The line forms behind my alma mater Virginia, who should be suing the conference for allowing them to compete in the NCAA men's tournament.

Man, that was a terrible game last night. I could stomach only the first half and I've never seen a more disinterested group of athletes in my life.

Virginia is trying to have every possible tournament experience:
- Thrashed by a 16 seed in first round as a 1 seed
- Won the title as a 1 seed
- Thrashed in the play-in as a 10 seed
I guess the next step would be winning a title as a play-in team.
At least they're not getting beat by Jim Boeheim any more.

@Connections NYT You're right, Virginia's NCAA Tournament history is a rollercoaster!

To no one's surprise, Clemson filed suit against the ACC today.
