With a guaranteed 2 Final Four teams, the ACC has just set a record for the largest tourney credit payout of $40m. That's about a $2.6m bonus for BC. Leahy's laughing all the way to the bank at the suggestion that BC has to spend money to make money from sports.

$2.6 million will go a long way toward covering all those scholarships and paying GT. But there probably won't be much left over.

Especially after the boys from H&R Block get their cut.

The gambling lesson of the Elite Eight is one that everyone who has observed 40 years of Virginia basketball history should have known--UVA will always choke at the moment of truth. Apparently, it is as self-evident as the truths Mr. Jefferson identified in the Declaration of Independence. They even have an acronym for it down here, in this town that loves acronyms--SOFH.*
