I came across a couple of interesting articles over at Bloomberg, written by Jonathan Mahler, one of their sports columnists, that touch on some peculiar happenings during the recent NCAA tournament: Florida Gulf Coast University's historic win streak into the Sweet 16, and Harvard's first tournament win since its inception 371 years ago. The author credits some interesting aspects of these two stories, FGCU's success is credited to none other than Ayn Rand, and Atlas Shrugged in particular, and the latter's success is credited to a rather shrewd move in attracting talent without the use of athletic scholarships.
