Stephen F. Austin became the darling of the NCAA Tournament with a huge win over 3-seed West Virginia thanks to 33 points from the Lumberjack GOAT Thomas Walkup. There was a lot of celebration online for his game and for the upset itself. However, some people might have gone overboard with some comparisons and praise of Walkup.
