You can do this with any position. I wonder how much position has to do with coaching? There are just a lot more people under 6'8" than over...
Cooley should have them in the tournament next year. They're a good group of players, and, depending on the seeding, could win a game or two. I...
I put Larry Brown ahead of the van Gundys, and Karl probably with or below them. Brown is tough. He always takes on pretty weak teams and...
I'd take Adelman out of that list. He made the Finals twice with the Blazers, would have made the Finals once (and almost certainly won) with...
By the end of his career, he was mostly functioning as an assistant coach anyway. I'm not sure this is going to work, but, you know, what the hell.
I don't think Syracuse basketball ever withers. I do think that UConn and Rutgers in the B1G could really end up hurting Syracuse and BC...
I know. Quincy and Braintree are clinchers, I think. But Somerville and Cambridge, while technically not part of the city in any municipal...
Eh. Malden, Medford, Revere, Newton, and a number of other places have acces to one of those lines, and they're not in the city. BC is...
I lived in Hartford for four years; I rode the bus. I thought the city had some solid things to build on. While it does not have the best food, I...
What's made you change your tune on this? You had been calling BS on this for a while, citing Nebraska.
Investment into the school has real long term, non-sports benefits to the state's economy. The list is long, but an obvious one is combatting...
Holy stick! That was all the school had accumulated almost into the 21st century!
A lot of time NCAA talent is different than NBA talent. UConn's 1999 title team had Rip Hamilton play in the pros. That's pretty much it...
A depleted roster (only 10 schollies), with a number of regulars (Lamb, Oriakhi, Drummond, Smith) from the previous year and the title team,...
This was a coherent, well-thought out, and interesting post. I enjoyed it. I take it you hadn't huffed anything before posting?
Who knows how Croshere would have stood out at UConn those years. King came in with Ray Allen and Doron Sheffer, which took away his ability to...
Sam Funches was with LeBlanc as well, right?
That wasn't one class. We had Ricky and Rash in one class Rip, Jake, KFree in another KEA in the next.
Well, if that were the bracket, aside from UConn over Stony Brook, I'd know Xavier over Pitt.
Lots of coaches have a some good years, and recruit well, even at the highest level--but we wouldn't want them at UConn (Barnes). Some coaches are...
When Ollie was hired in September, I had my concerns. They stemmed from inexperience, and, thus, were two-pronged: Can he coach a game, you know,...
Yeah. Sadly, I too, am struggling to figure out why 14 is such a big deal. Six games in division (3H, 3A), two games against teams from the other...
We get it because, in the three previous years, Craft's team was three times in the Sweet 16, a #1 seed (2-seed the other years), a Final Four...
I think he's suggesting that it's a stretch to put him on the list, and that him doing so is going to generate that argument.
Why I sometimes love local news... http://boston.cbslocal.com/2013/04/29/nh-man-loses-life-savings-on-carnival-game/
Whether he is right or not, it's a perception thing. I graduated a crappy Waterbury high school in 2002. When I started HS, UConn was a relatively...
I think the problem for Cuse and BC is this: they have to be sure that UConn doesn't get anywhere, or this blows up in their face. Yes, it may suck...
Many people on this board--who I trust--saw this kid play and thought he was the second-coming. Were sure of a 2008-09 title because of him. I...
It's really bad. I grew up on DD, and in the last few years I can't choke down the coffee. Starbucks coffee is much better. There's not a...
My god. If I had never heard him speak, I would have never guessed how close it reads...

7-5! He can't stay with 7-5. 8-4, better, or out.
Phase 1: build out to 50K Phase 2: ???? Phase 3: B1G!!!
But I don't see why they would do that. That's $28M more per year for UConn, who adds more for basketball than Pitt, but not than Louisville....
If they go undefeated, they're in the playoffs. Clemson, Florida State, and Virginia Tech are the only good teams in the league. Sometimes...
