    McD AA Rosters are out

    Really wish we had gone after Quin Costello in our backyard 6'10 sniper to replace Alex, but never heard of any interest regarding him. Diane will be the real deal next year

    Chief’s Briefs - Villanova Edition

    Just a couple thoughts. Expressing them is a form of therapy. 1. Overall turnovers haven't been terrible, but somebody has to see that Tarris shouldn't start his moves to the basket from 15ft away. His success rate is about 20% and turnover rate about 60%. If he has to dribble 3-4x nothing...

    OT: Flashback: Roof of the Hartford Civic Center Collapsed, January 19, 1978

    I'm betting the people on this board that go back to attending games in the 70's and have remained loyal fans for decades, are exactly the people who showed up in the snow that day. And went to our famous NIT St John's loss at MSG, and went to Big East Tournaments before MSG, and went to games...

    OT: Flashback: Roof of the Hartford Civic Center Collapsed, January 19, 1978

    I was there. Attendance was sparce so you could sit where you wanted to. The accepted theory is that the snow and ice brought down the roof. I think the scoreboard over the center court was the size of a 2 family house and completely stressing the center of that structure in the first place...

    Sat 1/17: South Florida, MBB vs Georgetown Game Watch

    Sorry I missed this thread. I would have been pleased to join you folks. I almost went to Bokampers anyway because I am only a mile or so away off of Sunrise. Please do it again.

    Georgetown Post Game Thread - Reed Double Double

    On the plus side: 1. We won 2. Only 5 Turnovers with 8 steals and 6 blocks 3. No physical injuries (just psychological damage) On the minus side: 1. Our offense has disappeared 2. Many Missed foul shots at crunch time by our best players 3. Our 3 point shooting seems to exist only in history...

    What a week for our OOC!

    Counts for nothing at all, but Love our East bracket as it exists today with Lunardi. Vermont 8/9 winner of Iowa/Georgia Sweet 16 4/5 is Mich St / Virginia Elite 8 2 Purdue / 3 Vandy with Ky not a long shot as a 10 seed I personally think Purdue would be literally an easy matchup for us...

    The Official 2025 New York Giants Thread

    Schoen posts his criteria in his head coach search. Absent is a proven record of being a 'winner'. Truely, if Cleveland doesn't want you, you are still an attractive hire for the NYG? Based on the criteria, if you can talk a good game your chances are good.

    Crystal ball !?

    I love the OP's story lines building up to a final Mich UConn collision. To win that game would put Karaban on college basketball Mount Rushmore 😊 7 Titles in 27 years competing with over 300 other programs 3 Hurley Titles Likely men & women for a 3rd time etc WOW

    Governor's Challenge

    Very interested in your observations because I want to believe Junior County is a great pick up but I have never watched him where he showed anything. I'm dying to be wrong.

    2026 Recruiting: Colben Landrew @ The City of Palms Classic Tournament

    6-10 from 3, 7-8 from the line, 6-8 from 2, 5 Offensive boards of his 8, 0 PF, 3 turnovers. That is an efficient outing

    Butler Scouting Report

    Only 1 key to this game. Smother Bizjack and their offense is cooked. Hit our shots and their chances evaporate even if we fail vs Bizjack. I think we win solidly in the 10-25 point range,

    Haiku for UConn vs East Texas A&M

    Dead silence on the board about this game. Hopefully the team takes this game more seriously than the fans here.

    Kansas Post Game Thread

    This is what I hoped for from Mullins. Reibe is contributing far beyond what I ever envisioned for this year. I am thrilled with his play and with Reed out it has been rock solid and clutch. Posting this next point without completely reading the thread, but I haven't seen the mention that I...

Ignore the factual error that Demary had the 5th triple double in uconn 'history'...
