#12 Stanford

by Peter Bard

National Championships: 1

Head Coach: Mike Montgomery

Nickname: Cardinal (just one)

The Lopez brothers are probably the names that jump out at you, as well as Josh Childress, who sparked a lot of nervousness in American basketball that players would start going overseas in their primes for paydays in China. That hasn’t happened yet, and I suspect his impact in this tournament will be similar. Look for Stanford to disappear quickly in this tournament. I do question myself for excluding Mark Madsen and his Mad Dog dance moves, for those of you wondering.
