LOL, 3 - yes, 3 - terrific posts in a row.

It's disgusting to me as a UConn fan, but a good marketing ploy to gain interest from the casual fan.

Who is guarding Smart on our team?

Eh, normally college basketball doesn't get a sniff in November or December and its January before there is any true interest among non die-hards. There are more and more November games every year and having an interesting easily digestible entry story-line is a good thing for the sport.

Who is guarding Smart on our team?

Giffey, Omar, Lasan and maybe even Samuel would likely take turns.

Yeah, that makes sense. Boat and Bazz would be at a physical disadvantage.

I love the passion here! In the end, however, I believe that the veteran teams are in the finals. Respectfully, we're one of them!

It's a marketing ploy to broadcast the players who will be at the top of the deepest draft in a decade in a few months? Maybe it's just because they're good?

Welcome to the ESPN hype machine. I'm not a college football fan, but it was pretty obvious how badly the overhyped Jadaveon Clowney early in the year. You would've thought he was the next Lawrence Taylor. Now that he's only been OK this year, they've calmed down on him.

Clowney will wow in the combine and still go #1
