Thanks skats.  I always wondered where Lunardi hid the other 11 months of the year.

Course Content
The course will consist of eight (8) modules and is designed to be completed within eight (8) weeks. The material covered will include such topics as an introduction to "NCAA March Madness"; a History of the NCAA Tournament; NCAA Selection Committee(s), the Selection Process, Seeding and Bracketing, RPI, the construction of mock brackets, and finally the building of your own bracket.

Each module will include one (1) or two (2) readings as well as discussion board time with Joe, where he will pose a question and then engage in conversation you and your fellow students. The final "exam" in the course will be the construction of an NCAA Men's Basketball Tournament bracket to be graded by Joe. Successful completion of the course will earn a Certificate of Completion from Saint Joseph's University as well as the option of having your final exam (final bracket) signed by Joe.

Lunardi was on SportsCenter this morning.  He was upbeat on MU, mostly based on their record against Top 25 teams.  He says if they win tonight they are in.
