College Basketball Discussion 11.13-11.19

[Tex-Lager93]

Watched ND go down to Radrord, was then able to watch BC lose to IUPUI a minute later.

IUPUI always seems to pull off an upset. The fact that it’s Boston College (ha ha) makes it so much sweeter. Such an odd amalgamation...do you go to IU or Purdue?...hmm...neither or, both...Indiana University Purdue University Indianapolis.

Looks a lot worse than it actually is. Ref on the other side of the court immediately called a technical foul and he was ejected. Kid who got hit wasn't injured and stayed in the game. The guy deserves to be kicked off the team or a season-long suspension, but yes, to bar him from campus immediately is a bit much IMO.

It was premeditated. He shot a quick glance at the ref under the basket as he approached the shooter and then, not even trying to defend the shot, waited until the shooter was most vulnerable and nailed him with a swinging elbow to the face.

But the degree that you get is from either Purdue or IU depending on what degree you are getting. I went to the other one, Indiana Purdue at Fort Wayne and my math degree is from Purdue.

[Minicoop69]

Northeastern smashes Bama. In control the whole game.

 

[Austin316]

They better keep winning so when we play them it will help our RPI. Preseason first place my ash.

Wake falls to St. Joes by 20

Alright, you made me look. Taylor Funk is a local kid (to me)...Lancaster, PA. Plays for St Joe’s. Lightly recruited 3* - made no sense to me because he is tall with a silky stroke. Took his podunk team to the Pa State Championship game (runner up) in the highest division. Made 6 3’s against Wake. Would love to have that sort of shooter at UConn.

CCSU about to tip against Austin Peay on CBSSN. In Jamaica for a tournament I believe

Probably as good a place to put this as any as it's a testament to how your college basketball career doesn't always dictate your Nba dreams. I liked this guy though so it's good to see someone like him pull off a rare feat.

Rockets rookie Clark shines in place of idol Melo

As much as I hated him when we played Cinci, I love Gary Clark. So stoked he is playing big minutes for a big team. It's great to see!

 

[don356]

I think it's probably a testament for us older guys that skills other than scoring still matter. You sometime have to be a coach with your butt on the line to know it. What's interesting about that article is the comments from the veteran players. That's a guy that wasn't even drafted their talking about a month into the season, lol.

NCAA grants Vanderbilt's Moyer waiver to play

This is the kid that killed us for Cuse last year at MSG.

How does this kid get to play immediately but Sid Wilson didn't last year? Doesn't make any sense.

 

[Tex-Lager93]

Tulsa going down to the wire with 'California Baptist University'. "I'll take Universities I've never heard of for $300 Alex". Ugh.

 

[HawkHusky]

Tulsa escapes with a W. UCF beats St Joe's by 20. (Wake must really suck.)

 

[StunningSteve]

UCF extends the lead and wins. Boatraced. (Not for lack of effort by Charlie Brown... good player)

 

[StunningSteve]

Will play winner of West Virginia/WKU
