FGCU coach Andy Enfield told me they practice lobs because chest-level passes are disadvantageous for tall athletes...(and less fun for us)

Can't say this enough: #DunkCity. Chase Fieler with a huge dunk on the baseline. #ASunMBB

Real-time highlight: FGCU slams it home and has a chance for a three point play.

Can't imagine how valuable this exposure is for Florida Gulf Coast basketball and the institution itself. Unreal. Congrats to them for this.

Wait this team finished second in the ASun? So was Mercer the Miami Heat?

DUNK CITY has taken over Philadelphia. F! G! C! U!

I have ALWAYS said there is no more entertaining brand of basketball than what they play in the Atlantic Sun Conference

FGCU, love you. Comer, love you. Crazy fearless and loose.

FGCU is a #1 seed on the fun-o-meter.

Raise your hand if you're becoming a FGCU believer.

Pretty sure Philly fans would swap the Sixers for Florida Gulf Coast as homecourt team right about now.

SITimLayden Mar 24, 7:42pm via Web

If you think it's very cool to be sitting in the gym in Philadelphia rt now, watching FGCU and SD State, well, you're right.

BFeldmanCBS Mar 24, 7:44pm via Web

Love the FGCU story: a school virtually no one ever heard off till this wk. Element of discovery makes March Madness great

DEVELOPING: A 15-seed has NEVER advanced to the Sweet 16. Florida Gulf Coast (aka "Dunk City") is up 10 with 8:00 left.

AndyGlockner Mar 24, 7:50pm via TweetDeck

Comer is filthy. He just put Tapley in the blender.

BleacherReport Mar 24, 7:48pm via TweetDeck

FGCU has quickly become America's favorite college basketball team. #DunkCity

No 15 seed has ever reached the Sweet 16. Florida Gulf Coast up 10 with 7 minutes to go. #HistoryAlert

They ain't here to run no clock. RT @StevePoliti: For the love of Cinderella -- Run. Some. Clock. FGCU!

ASun_Patrick Mar 24, 8:02pm via TweetDeck

This is insane @FGCU_MBB on a 17-0 run; lead San Diego State 71-52. Similar to 2nd half run vs. G'Town #ASunMBB #DunkCity

FGCU lost to Lipscomb twice. "They're our kryptonite," said FGCU's Eddie Murray. "Glad we don't have to play them in the Sweet 16."

Quiet time on the plane ...What a feeling. Thank you to our players who have bought into what we want to do. Couldn't ask for a better group

Honest Q: Is FGCU the most wildly entertaining/compelling NCAA team since 1990 Loyola Marymount?
