    2024 Recruiting: Liam McNeeley 2.0

    To Threepeat we’re gonna need as much good karma & mojo as possible. The kid is a good player and could be a great person, but I just wouldn’t want to tempt things by taking any Duke players from the portal. Comfortable riding with our current guys, McNeely, and maybe one more mid-budget...

    What if the "International Player" is actually here on campus? (Apostolos!) ;)

    True, but if that's what he was basing his college decision on, we should look elsewhere ;)

    If there's one thing I'm 100% comfortable with by now--it's our staff turning nearly any D1-level player into at least a serviceable defender. I remember watching Joey C in his first few games thinking "oof...needs to dramatically improve his D or else we can't play him." And lo & behold, by...

    UConn to expand regional campus in Hartford with major downtown lease.

    I think this is the former St Joes School of Pharmacy space. Iif so, ’ve seen it and it was already built out with high quality teaching/learning/lab space.

    This is well done. Bravo!

    Props to Zach Edey

    I think we've become really spoiled with the UConn teams of the last 2 years. We are head & shoulders above the rest of CBB and they're all trying to play catch-up. Our offensive players are talented, and our playbook is creative, deep, and executed to perfection. That is NOT the norm for most...

    The Big East

    The BigTen should come begging at our door with a few Brinks trucks to join their lame conference. At this rate, it's the only way they stand a chance of ever winning another MBB National Championship,

    Edey played all 40 minutes

    He’s done that so far in the Tourney. Fouls each game: 4,1,3,1,1

    “We will systematically break you down”

    Seemed to be Oats’ motivational game plan for the team…during one of the timeouts I remember him in the 2nd half saying something to the effect of “they’re not used to close games…keep it close and they’ll break” (or something to that effect). Just like Hurley stretches truths for motivational...

    Illinois Defensive Matchups

    I haven't seen a single poster mention it, but it seems like Stewart might also be someone who can play some tough defense for a few minutes on Shannon in case Diarra is getting burned because of height differential.

    Northwestern Post Game Thread

    Yea, rumor has it the kid is a slacker in the gym. Only gets up multiple thousand shots per day on average.

    I understand that a win is a win at this point, but you need to have every edge that you can get to win it all... We've shown upcoming better teams twice now that we're capable of letting our foot off the gas with a lead in the 2nd half. And also that we can go dead-arse ice cold for long...

    UVA making the committee proud

    This team was 13-7 and finished 3rd in the ACC. The ACC. Let that sink in. Horrible job by the selection committee. Deserves all the shade

    Why The Selection Committee is a Joke

    Your posts are interesting and worth reading, but damn nearly impossible to read because you make a big run on wall of text. Try adding some spaces/paragraph breaks and I bet you’ll generate more discussion…cheers!

    Why The Selection Committee is a Joke

    Just because they have a sheet with those metrics doesn’t mean they understand them or know how to use them Also, it’s fairly clear that they use the other very important metric during decision making: $$$$

    Sour grapes alert

    This is the same mindset you see in a Casino all the time when dumb chumps at the roulette wheel pile money on “Red” because “Black” has hit 4x in a row. “Red is due now…it HAS to hit!”

    BE Bubble Update (3/15/24)

    I’m torn on Virginia. They don’t deserve to be in, even though everyone says they are based in metrics. So it will irk me if/when they get in. On the other hand, it would be delicious if they do get in and then proceed to score 42 pts and get blown out in a play-in game. I’m not sure which...

    Chief’s Briefs - St John’s Edition

    Chief, Samson has not gotten burned on the high hedge more than a small handful of times the whole year. I know this is your narrative, but it is absolutely untrue. Postivies outweigh the negatives of it. And always will.

    Week of 3/11/24 Games (Conference Tournaments)

    Clemson getting taken to the woodshed by BC. Another trash ACC team that will waste a spot in the NCAAT

    Big East tourney teams?

    Generally agree, but I think it’s possible Providence slips in as a Last 4 In if they can beat GTown and Marquette in the BET.

    Meanwhile at Cameron Indoor…

    Embarrassing!!! Cooper was at the game to witness this firsthand. Maybe they’ll post it on their TikTok feed for “clout” https://x.com/pardonmytake/status/1766652713683620071?s=46&t=fW3sGXWqwlnrDgQeGsy4CQ

    Marquette Post Game Thread

    While I agree 100% we need a big,, we're not at all "desperate". I hate that term especially now that we're clearly back as a CBB superpower. We're the reigning National Champs with a 27-3 record and the odds-on favorite to win the NCAAT. So much palpable buzz around the program it's crazy! We...

    To me biggest key down the stretch

    The amount of fouls and busted plays due the high hedge D has been very minimal. Some here hate it and will go to their graves bashing it...but the fact of the matter is that it is an effective disruptor of offensive sets, and Samson (who is the one who does it most often) is highly effective...

    Chief’s Briefs - Seton Hall Edition

    If I wasn't familiar with other "Father Demo" posts, I would give this the Troll Post of the Year award. But I think they are actually 100% serious with their analysis here. Which is actually spit-out-your-coffee hilarious!
