There has been basketball outside Xavier this weekend. Outside of that second half against Maryland where Trevon Bluiett grabbed the game away from Melo Trimble. Outside, even, of Xavier entering the Florida State game as massive underdogs and ended with Xavier boatracing the Seminoles and blasting into the Sweet 16 on the back of a 25 point, still hard to believe, win. While things for Xavier fans have been nothing but sunshine and roses (and banked three pointers and commemorative t shirts) two other stories have come to the fore that challenge the rose colored outlook of even the most positive of college basketball fans.
