    How would you regulate paying college athletes?

    I haven’t got too deep into the CA bill, but my concern would be that the schools with the biggest boosters would get the best talent and it would take away the parity that still exists. Would that even matter? Or do schools like Kentucky and Duke get pretty much the same players. Would it not...

    Zion is the most exciting/dynamic player since....

    Kemba walker? Kemba walker! I think that may be true even from an outsiders perspective. I’m sure you can say Anthony Davis or some others cause kemba was a late riser in the media gold area (BE tourney win against Pitt) but that run was truly heroic. Zion has had a huge spotlight on him all...

    Legal advice?

    I had the pleasure of being served last week. I know there are some lawyers here so I figured I’d try. I live in VA. My sprinkler system company punctured a gas line in my lawn. It was marked correctly but the gas line was put in in the late 50s and was like 4 inches under the grass. The...

    How long till we hear about hurley

    His season is over and it seems like the fever pitch is screaming Hurley. How long does that take to flush out a y or not?

    Do Larrier and Adams go pro? Then what

    There were a lot of assumptions on this board about Jalen leaving this year, and Terry made some comment about this being his last year in college ball (not sure if that was a firm plan or an aspiration). Both players don't appear to be on draft boards for either round. Terry has an NBA...

    What's the plan for today?

    Anyone have any clue what the plan is? Looks like Reynolds and Frazier are the top guys to shut down. I think putting Whaley on Reynolds is an easy call, but the guard matchups are really weird. The shortest guy on the starting lineup is 6'5" so that will likely make it tough for us to go...

    Drop bombs or prepare for a horror show

    Any clue on how we’re gonna try and win this thing tonight? Transition offense will be the best way, but it hasn’t been great this year. In the half court, my guess is that we’re gonna have to try and take it to the hole and get their bigs in foul trouble in the first half, but if that...

    OT: NBA Breakouts You Didn't See Coming (Drummond and Lamb)

    From the land of good news... Drummond getting some mention for the Pistons. He went for 27/20 and 6 assists with 1 TO last night. Lamb is listed at #9. Great to see these guys having success.

    We're clean.....right?

    This story hasn't fully unraveled and more will be implicated, but we know that the FBI investigations started in 2015. To be clear - I am in no way saying or implying that anything was done by the staff or players. If we were to blindly assess our exposure, the only recruits that were ranked...

    Does KW start just to win the tip off?

    Randomly thinking about this yesterday. Even if he's not a "starter", does it make sense to have him secure the first possession and potentially get subbed out at the first whistle. Is his vertical enough to even mostly-guarantee a first possession? Is the first possession really valuable or...

    OT: Caron at Harvard Business School

    The story keeps getting better for Caron. It was a bit buried in the article, but I haven't seen anything here talking about him studying at HBS. He's a class act.

    Patrick Sellers new assistant gig at DePaul

    I didn't see a post on this and thought it was a pretty raving review of the "Calhoun Bloodline" and "Calhoun System" Link "The common thread that connects all of us to coach Calhoun is the discipline and super competitiveness we learned from him. It's like all of that was channeled into each...

    Three Units for AAC

    This is a high stakes money game for the conferences. I'll happily eat my words on the projection if Cincy takes out KY, but 3 units for the whole conference? I'm not sure how they spend all of the money and don't care to research it, but after this year my guess is "more frugally than...

    Shabazz Superman Shirt?

    I'm not terribly good with graphics, but if someone put a "13" on the back of this shirt I would absolutely buy it. http://www.amazon.com/Superman-White-Shield-Adult-T-Shirt/dp/B004J8N47K

    I think we need to get to phase 2 of our fundraising!

    As the ideas for the Thank You to Coach Calhoun were passed around (billboard, bronze statue, etc.), the board was pretty disorganized with the proper direction to take. While the pledge amount kept rising, there were no actual donations made and people were a bit frustrated with the...

    Taliek Brown on a Big Gulp cup representing UCONN 04 NC

    I was a bit surprised to see they picked Taliek, but great for him to make some cash on an 8 yr old NC. http://www.magicbulletmedia.com/MNR/7ElevenMiracleMatch-Ups/

    OT: Rautins moves in with parents

    I usually don't laugh in peoples' misfortune, but I got a chuckle thinking about him moving back in with his parents after putting in a season with the Knicks. Former Knicks guard Andy Rautins, who played sparingly last year as a rookie, has moved back in with his parents...

    Does Jay Wright look for a new jobby job?

    Looks like Villanova may be the school that gets hit the hardest with the possible Big East implosion. The BE has been telling them to get their football up and running for years-they didn't, and now they will have to find a mid major A10-like conference if the BE can't hold up.

    Questions on the new boneyard location??

    Taking a cursory look I can't seem to find out any information on why the board was switched to this location. Plenty of links to the new site about posting the questions here and I can't find a post about it. Curious...
