College Basketball Discussion 11.13-11.19

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!

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.

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

Blue Devils and Governors tied at 39 at the end of the first half.

Jersey Mike’s Jamaica Classic at Montego Bay.

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

 

[UConnSwag11]

Wow. Real exciting game with Oregon and Cuse. Both playing zones.... yawn

 

[HawkHusky]

Ugly.

midway through the first half App St is beating Wichita State

USF is up on Ohio late first half

Mizzou up 2 on Kennessaw St with a minute to go

UMBC up 1 on Air Force with 4 minutes left

Channels?

 

[uconnphil2016]

Syracuse looks like a bunch of zombies right now. Low energy game

 

[UConnRock]

syracuse breaks the 20 point mark with 4:11 left in the half. 23-22 now. If this is #13 and #15 the NCAA should just have an 8 team tournament

Do not be surprised if this Bulls team gives Georgetown fits in this tournament.
I think Akinjo may find Laquincy Rideau a challenge.
Gregory has some solid size and athleticism

Wichita is on ESPNU Ohio v USF is on CBSSN

 

[StunningSteve]

Wichita wins. So far undefeated on the night.

Go Huskies!!

 

[ASweet3781]

Villanova is tied....with Furman...late.

Certainly seems like a more winnable game than it was at the start of the year.

 

[ASweet3781]

Furman up 8 with 38 secs left tin OT.

 

[StunningSteve]

Furman up 8 with 38 secs left tin OT.

 

[Vuce]

SMU just lost to Lipscomb. The epitome of brutality

 

[Mr. French]

Yale about to beat Memphis. I only watched the last 4-6 minutes but Memphis has struggled closing this game.

Edit: refs are pretty bad in this game as well. Yale got screwed a bit.

 

[BFieldHusky]

Memphis beats Yale in double OT.

 

[Mr. French]

Memphis beats Yale in double OT.

I watched the last 4 minutes and then both OTs and Memphis got pretty lucky. They made some plays, but overall were very fortunate. Wild game.

 

[HawkHusky]

Ivy looking good with Yale and Harvard.

 

[Hey Adrien!]

3 interesting AAC matchups today:

12 - USF vs Georgetown
1:30 - Bama - Wichita St.
6:30 UCF - WKU

6:30 UCF - WKU

Bama is terrible, WSU should get that. WKU is dangerous, would be a good win for UCF. The Hoyas against USF is interesting. USF is showing surprising signs of life, and the Hoyas, while not ready to compete, even in a down year for the BE, have shown signs of improvement. A chance to lift the AAC, while knocking the BE down a notch.
