This is a brutal take. Cam's IQ is off the charts and he does play point guard.
He's a smart player. But I think this board overrates his smart.

Like some people may think he's like the smartest UConn player ever. He's a developing PG too. Mostly because his size takes him there defensively but he's been doing great with the adjustment.
 
Andre Jackson is smart. He's just not skilled.

Cam is an elite elite scorer above all else. He's not a super IQ guy. If he was he'd be a PG.
that's so dumb lmao. cam's not a pg because he's not breaking down the defense off the dribble. it has nothing to do with iq

No, we aren't comparing him to any of your binkies, don't worry. None of the PGs that went through the Calhoun Academy of Genius. Weird. One of his biggest strengths is his smarts, and that's what separates him as a player.
 
They'll have their losses in the ACC. They aren't that good.
Two matchups with the Ville, two vs UNC, and Michigan in February. They have a couple L’s on that schedule

Our OOC slates are pretty similar. If we beat Florida and Texas, we would have the easier track to a one seed

I guess that's the worst home loss EVER for a #1 ranked team.
Unfortunately it's tied for worst home loss ever for a #1 team. I only remember the other game because I was in Gampel in 1995 when UConn got it's first #1 ranking ever only to get run out the gym by Kerry Kittles and Villanova. Kittles 37 pt performance might be the 2nd best performance I have ever seen in Gampel. It was the best until Ben Gordon 's 40 pt game against Nevada in 2004 season. Nevada made the Sweet 16 that season while UConn of course won it all.

Down the stretch Fears turned down a wide open 3 from the top of the key to take a contested floater that he missed. 90%ft shooting guard has to be able to pull there and knock that down.
He was 0-10 from the field today (0-2 from three) so I'm sure he wasn't feeling very confident to take the shot. Although on the season he's a 42% shooter from three, 48% from the field, so just an off day I guess.
 
I’ve been meaning to ask, is calling BC “BCU” an inside joke on the boneyard or something?
ACC Commissioner John Swofford in 2003 when BC was joining the conference mistakenly referred to Boston College as Boston University. Hence Boston College University (BCU).
 
Michigan is a load. They are the best team in college ball right now. Might sound blasphemous, i might throw a few sheckles on them to win the whole thing at 7-1.

I liked this AI answer:

Yes, there were reports and online discussions that the Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC)
mistakenly referred to Boston College as "Boston College University" on its official website or in a formal communication around the time the school joined the conference in the early 2000s.
This error became a point of discussion and mild ridicule among rival fans and online communities...
 
What in the world is Dusty May cooking up at Michigan? They look like the Globetrotters.

They are crushing teams by 40. Villanova is next to face Michigan on Tuesday. Let's see if that continues.

Not a bad bet - right now, from a pure talent perspective they check a lot of boxes. As HW611, Mara at 7'3 (4 blocks today), is the most classic rim protector and a cheat code defensively. Cadeua is passing the ball really well. Then they have Yaxel. Right now they look like they are the favorites. May is a really good coach, brought FAU to the F4.

I do remember it being "Boston College university". We had some fun with it on the BY.
 
Illinois is playing like they're not allowed to grab a loose ball

What separates him as a player is that he's an elite elite scorer. He's beyond efficient and it's not because he's taking the best and smartest shots in the world. He's just super efficient from every level.

That doesn't have much to do with playing PG. You don't have to be a super athlete to play the position. Just high level decision making and being smart enough to know how to make others around you better.

It's okay guys he's still smart.

I sincerely hope this is trolling but I don't think it is.

Let's go over this again, Cam is a "super" high IQ player who plays point guard.

His basketball IQ is off the charts.
