It did no such thing. UConn fans woke up on Saturday to the news that top recruit Daniel Hamilton (No. 27 in the ESPN 60 for the Class of 2014) had committed to the school for the 2014-15 season. Hamilton, a 6-foot-6 shooting guard from Los Angeles visited UConn last weekend, and Dinos Trigonis reported that he enjoyed his visit so much that UConn appeared to be a favorite to land him. Hamilton retweeted that report and signed five days later.

Chol starred at San Diego's Hoover High before signing with Arizona in 2011, making his signing somewhat of a homecoming for the Sudanese national. The 6-foot-9 forward will have two years of eligibility to use at San Diego State under coach Steve Fisher, who has developed several successful big men while taking the Aztecs to three straight NCAA tournaments. The 19-year-old Chol, whose shot-blocking and hustle made him a fan favorite at McKale Center, averaged 1.9 points, 2.0 rebounds and 8.5 minutes per game in 28 games this season. He was a relative newcomer to basketball who grew up in Sudan, and his offensive skills showed a lack of polish despite his status as a top-50 recruit nationally. He had fallen behind freshmen Kaleb Tarczewski, Brandon Ashley and Grant Jerrett in the rotation by the latter part of the year.

Burns was the winningest coach in Aztecs women's basketball history, going 295-186 in two eight-year stints. She led the Aztecs to six regular-season conference championships and four league tournament titles. San Diego State qualified for the NCAA tournament seven times, highlighted by a final 16 appearance in 2010. The Aztecs were 27-7 last season, setting a school single-season record for victories en route to their second straight Mountain West Conference regular-season title. Burns was the MW Coach of the Year for the second straight season and sixth time overall. Associate head coach Jualeah Woods will serve as interim head coach. In between stints at SDSU, Burns coached for five seasons at Ohio State, going 82-65 overall with a WNIT title in 2001.

As impressive as Enfield leading FGCU on this tournament run, pulling Marcum will always be his shinning moment. A self made-millionaire, Enfield, 43, clearly knows how to get things done. He got engaged to a super-model, Amanda Marcum, by putting a ring in-between two Krispy Kreme donuts. Their first date was at a Taco Bell.

The Aztecs, like the Hoyas two nights earlier, could only watch Florida Gulf Coast celebrate an upset win at the NCAA tournament. This was an historic one - the 81-71 victory made the Eagles the first No. 15 seed to reach the NCAA tournament's round of 16. And just like in FGCU's win over second-seeded Georgetown, it was a big second-half run that sent the Eagles on their way to some postgame dancing. In its first-ever NCAA tournament game on Friday, the Atlantic Sun champion busted brackets everywhere by taking control with a 21-2 run in the second half. It went much the same way against seventh-seeded San Diego State. This time the run was 17-0 and Sherwood Brown, who was saddled early in the second half with foul trouble, had eight of the first 10 points of it. When it was over the Eagles led 71-52 with 4:19 to play and the only decisions left were how the players and fans were going to celebrate. ''They're a good basketball team.

Although SDSU was expected to join the Big West next season and join the Big East for football only, the school issued a statement on Wednesday explaining its decision to remain in the Mountain West, a conference in which it is a charter member. The Mountain West didnt hesitate to reinstate the Aztecs. The decision was explained by university president Dr. Elliot Hirshman and athletic director Jim Sterk in a joint statement: After substantial discussion and consideration of a broad range of factors, San Diego State University will be continuing as a full member of the Mountain West Conference in July 2013. We have the deepest respect for our colleagues in the Mountain West, BIG East and Big West conferences with whom we have worked collaboratively during the period of conference realignment.

San Diego State President Elliot Hirshman says the school is pleased to be continuing as a full member of the Mountain West Conference. San Diego State, a founding member, had committed to join the Big East for football only, with Boise State, starting next season. But recent defections from the Big East caused Boise State to reconsider and strike a deal to stay in the Mountain West. Without a western partner, San Diego State retreated, too.
