Imagine having one of the best teams in the country, Nevada playing ASU midnight EST. I wanted to watch that so bad

We should just invite Nevada and Gonzaga into the AAC for basketball. Does it even matter at this point where these programs are located? Let’s just bring in all the best conference misfits possible.

You are right, It’s not Morehead State.

Can we ban this joker until Providence has as many championships as UConn. That is four in case the math is too hard for you. PC is in absolutely no place to talk, dominated by UConn in the 90s and early 2000s and four less 'ships. Not clever enough to figure out the celebration was about Hurley's first win. Bye now.

I'll do you one better. Since we won our first title in 1999, Providence has ONE win in the NCAA tournament. ONE. A 1 point first round tournament win.

LOL. Did you see what I was responding to? Laugh a little. Lighten up.

Cooley acting like a maniac after the game thinking his guy got fouled. Not even close. PeeCee is the classic "take your foot off the gas" team. This is a real bad loss.

Yes we blew a 20 point lead and Ed acted like an idiot. Hurley needs less motivation to act that way.

Ouch! Blowing a 20 point lead at home has got to sting, especially to them.

Yes it does. now I understand why you don’t play them. This is two years in a row we have lost to them. It does sting. If we are going to lose to a Nee England team it should be UConn. Let’s make that happen

Your rival is URI, I don’t make the rules.
 
One of my favorite winter Saturday morning traditions is catch a Friday night game on replay and I just finished watching the Nevada/Arizona State game. What a comeback by Nevada.

After awful shot selection in the first half, Nevada played more in control and they really showcased their depth with clutch 2nd half plays from newcomers Trey Porter, Jordan Brown and Jazz Johnson.

The key was Caleb Martin finally playing under control and taking over the game (13 2nd half points).

The player on Arizona State I'd love to have on UConn: Lugentz Dort. I don't remember how close we were to getting Dort, but he's quickly becoming one of my favorite players in college basketball. Bilas was comparing him a lot to Marcus Smart, which is a good comparison in terms of body composition, two-way tenacity and handle on the ball, but Dort is an even better shooter. The kid looks like a fully developed senior for a kid who turns 20 in April. I wouldn't be surprised if he leaves after one year, he's that good and he has that mature frame and understanding of the game. With this team, he'd be a great 3rd guard alongside Jalen and Alterique, allowing Vital to be the microwave guy off the bench.

The player on Nevada I'd love to have on UConn: Jordan Caroline: Such a tough, consistent player and for a guy at that build has a surprising level of quickness. Picturing him at the 4 in a UConn jersey...he'd be a monster down low alongside Cobb or Carlton. My comparison to him is Jeff Adrien, but add in above-average handle and passing for a stocky 4.

Pitt is absolutely terrible. I can't count how many dumb plays Pitt has made. West Virginia isn't impressive either up by 12 with about 4 to play. Wow lol
 
Seton Hall tied with Kentucky with a minute left. Powell going off down the the stretch.

Two absurdly unlucky and dumb plays by Seton Hall with the game tied under a minute - guy falls on a 2 on 1 break, then the guy gets a defensive rebound and arm bars the UK dude in the neck.
 
Myles Powell is the biggest recruiting miss of the past few years that nobody talks about.
