    1st recruit Hurley calls?

    Not sure if it's been mentioned anywhere...anyone confirm Kimani and Tom not traveling back with the team? Recruiting takes no break?

    The best moment of the game

    I think I have to point to Karaban's 3 ball, corner pocket. We were up already, that one was the one I finally stopped stressing and the felt the route was truly on. Doesn't help my buddy kept saying he needs to stop shooting, in which I replied "I don't care if he goes 0-9, shooters shoot and...

    “It’s a collision course. This is how it’s always had to be”

    Purdue has players at every position that thrive on people underestimating them. Their guards are smart and know how to find space after the dump to Edey. They are the most efficient 3 point shooting team in the country because they get a lot of open ones. Kauffman renn and Gillis when off the...

    Who do you fear?

    No fear, but rather teams you'd like to avoid. All of those teams will be set up to meet in F4 at the earliest. past elite 8, no caring as to who they play, it's on.

    I said it last other games thread, but warrants another stamp: New Mexico is a fun team to root for. Jamal Mashburn's son, Eddie House's son, coached by little pitino. Add in a possible conference freshman of the year, JT Toppin, impact transfer (jr Joseph) from where - Iona. They are up by 13...

    Anyone see the end of TTU/KSU? Tang called TO down 1 with 7 seconds after his point guard got a good switch and iso. Spent majority of the TO drawing a play up with his staff sans the players. By the time he sat down to tell the players, the refs are calling for players on court. TTU player...

    Love watching this New Mexico team. House and Toppin are just all out all the time. Two Pitino's should be tourny bound this year.

    Why is KU/OK on ESPN+? Two top ten teams can't even get a slot over Virginia/wake?

    Gonzaga Post Game Thread

    Math checks out. And they still had zero issue taking this wire to wire. But honestly, 14 offensive rebounds against any Hurley coached team is atrocious. Especially seeing it was a lot of lack of focus on execution. That's even with the scouting report having Zags as a good offensive...

    Gonzaga Post Game Thread

    Outrebounded and it showed. Rewound on most missed defensive possessions...simply did not box out. Johnson numerous times started the box out and came off to jump straight up. Gotta push back and explode to the ball. We didn't do the work early enough when the ball went up

    When did you know?

    Same. Told a Purdue fan in early January that I have no idea what their flaw would be that would make them lose. Then Jan happened. End of year and tourney they played the way they did early on.

    Gonzaga Post Game Thread

    Did anyone catch Kenny say pre game that Few told him he couldn't sleep, was too worried about how to stop the huskies? Thought that was telling, he knew this would be a matchup nightmare. In hindsight, we should have seen this coming, their defense isn't great, didn't turn us over as much and...

    Gonzaga Scouting Report

    Another great write up, just I the nick of time! One piece I keep reading about (mainly from opposition scouting) is how teams have been able to slow down Oscar T. From Kentucky, so they feel they can handle Adama. One piece lost if people don't see is that UConn moves so well in their sets...

    UConn -3.5 St. Marys

    I thought pitino, excellent coach he is, tried his best to stem any kind of momentum runs. Twice he called TOs when UConn hit two shots and got big stops. 4 point lead and he called timeouts. He knew UConn wins and loses based on mentality. This team needs momentum more than any team I can...

    2023 Big East Tournament (Non-UConn Games)

    Up 1, DePaul put a shot up, foul called on nunge. refs made it a 1-1, missed the front end. How was that not a 2 shot foul?

    Karaban Second Matchups

    latest mock drafts have him a 2nd rd pick in 2024. With NIL, would hope he would stick around for a 3rd year to move up.

    Nobody wants to spend 2.5 hours at a regulation NCAAB game

    It doesn't help when Holloway is allowed to chat up refs for 10 minutes after every ball stoppage.

    Not to derail the point of this post, BUT...Three of these guys (+ Hilton Armstrong) on the same team was just unfair....

    Guard Play now vs November

    Early season newton didn't hesitate with defenders on him bringing the ball up. No walking it up the court. because of his quickness up the court early season, the defenders would be on their heels by the time we started our offensive set. We could find our offense early in the clock, able to...

    Week 8: Other Games

    Best team they've had since 2016, Ganot's first year and first NCAA win. Think that team was more complete, but this years team has much better guards. Thanks for the morning read.

    Week 8: Other Games

    Neither team wanted to win in the final 59 seconds, until The last second shot anyway. Hawaii with 2 unforced turnovers and SMU missed 2 front ends.

    Evaluation of Adama’s High Hedge - Here is why we do this!

    GREAT analysis, time consuming and thought invoking work. One aspect I think that's ignored from the folks who don't like the hedge is that we do it well. There really is an all or nothing approach. Meaning you either go all in and hard hedge, stopping any play development, or you say and...

    Sean Miller Gets off Scott-Free

    Wasn't he caught on a wire tap discussing pay for players? Someone has to explain how that gets ignored in this case? Honestly don't care much because now it's semi legal, but the penalties handed out for less were worse than what Miller got (unless you count program imposed termination)

    Our Next Tight Game

    Dude, reread my first reply to you. I was in no way attacking you or questioning anything that has to do with your intelligence. Take a breath and realize I was simply asking for someone to tell you that the "doomed" quote IS DONE IN JEST. Nothing was said to you that you should have taken...

    Clingan Stats

    FWIW, at least twice per game his pure size gets refs confused on what a foul is. Just because he's wasn't effected by the foul doesnt mean he wasn't hit.

    Our Next Tight Game

    Anyone have the origins of the "doomed" reply for this guy? In short, anytime anyone gets too overly hyped, the boneyard respond with "doomed", a superstition in jest to keep the basketball gods happy. For the record, I'm not disagreeing with your hype train. What I really wanted out of this...
