Parker. Fowles. Wiggins. Moore. Whatever team you root for, there's no escaping the fact that these are four driven players that all have the capability to dominate a game by themselves. But none of these teams are Cinderellas that revolve around only one player. The supporting casts for these four superstars are top-notch as well. Whatever the outcome, this Final Four is going to be fantastic.

What are you impressed with from your team so far?

I'm impressed with Stanford's versatility on offense. Yes, Wiggins has scored 40+ in two games, but in each of those two games, another Cardinal scored 20 or more, and at least one other player scored 10+. In the two games that Wiggins scored under 20, Appel, Gold-Onwude and Pederson stepped up big time.

I'm also impressed by how composed Stanford has seemed all tournament long. They keep their heads on defense, they don't get into major foul trouble, and they take care of the ball pretty well. They have not had much trouble putting opponents away. They're not the deepest team, but they get solid play from the bench they have (Pohlen and Harmon, basically). They will be a tough out.
