how do you not get the ball in buddys hands??? either from the beginning or on a kick
Big win for Michigan over Purdue. First game back for LeVert but doesn't look like he did much.
texas at isu alsoDefinitely a big win for them and us. I imagine they'll draw some top 25 votes this week.
Gonzaga @ SMU later is an interesting game. Gonzaga needs to win that if they want an at-large.
Jesus it is near impossible to watch a basketball game involving Puke without Dookie V on the mic. Are even Puke fans not sick of him? I feel like if he was at every UConn game lapping at JC's balls, we would still eventually get tired of him
So you'd want to listen his incessant obnoxious raving and ranting 20+ times a year?Every time I've heard him do a UConn game, that's been exactly what he's done, and no, I'm not tired of it. Vitale loves UConn.
Allan's right foot hit the ground when he shot that

Only if your in the Mountain West.Yeah his foot was definitely back on the floor before he released the ball. That's not reviewable right?
I'm already having nightmares of the thought of what both moores are going to do to us.This SMU-Gonzaga game is good.
God I wish we'd gotten Josh Perkins. Of all the recruits we've missed out on over the last 4 years, he's the one who'd have helped the most.This SMU-Gonzaga game is good.

We made it pretty clear he was a back-up plan. I don't think he ever seriously considered us, and vice versa.Yeah, he'd have been a big get. Bonzie Colson of Notre Dame is another guy that comes to mind. I don't remember how hard we recruited him, but I know there was interest at one point.
Always appreciate a good analysis, keep it up.I went to the Cal vs. Oregon State game today. Cal won 83-71, but could/should have won by about 25 since they shot 26-44 (!!!) from the line. It was an insane amount of fouls - like our game against Memphis, but worse.
Jaylen Brown is going to go very high in the draft, and whoever gets him is getting a good player but not a superstar. My guess is he'll be a Jae Crowder-type at the next level (though he definitely needs to work on his jumper). Rabb, meanwhile, has some tools but definitely needs to continue to work on being more than just a rebounder & rim protector. Bird had 23 and made some shots, but that's more the exception than the rule with him.
Cal have a lot of drive-and-kick playmakers, including the senior Tyrone Wallace who averages 4.5 apg, and is a likely second-round pick. But like us they don't really have a true PG.
Oregon State weren't super talented, save for Gary Payton Jr. and Tres Tinkle. I don't know if Payton will shoot it well enough to be a pro, but he throws good skip passes, defends like hell and is long/athletic. He did have trouble turning the corner with the ball in his hands, though that may have been more because Cal repeatedly packed the lane so there was nowhere to go. I could see him being a Patrick Beverly-type at the next level.
Hey, that loss is more ammo for the "fire Josh Pastner" crowd. You'd have to think that a school that was able to land Calipari, ought to be able to pull in a pretty good coach.An especially devastating play since they lost the freaking game in overtime.
