NCAA divided loyalties, et cetera

Well, I didn’t hear from any West Virginia alums living in Spokane. Nor were there any messages from couples where he is a Montana grad and she went to Wisconsin. And so on.

But one colleague, online producer Alison Boggs, noted that her brother is a Syracuse alum. The Orangemen are the No. 1 seed in the East regional, where GU is the No. 7.

The two could meet down the road. Alison, a GU fan, would love to see that happen. She’s ready for a little revenge.

“The last time Gonzaga and Syracuse met, my brother called me BEFORE the game to offer his condolences,” she said. “Sadly, Gonzaga was thrashed and my big brother was right again.”
