@HooperScooper - The subtitles generated for this interview spelled Newton's name "Tristan" every time.

Diarra spellings varied between "Haas," "Hass," and "Hoss."

Thanks. I will speak to the athletic department about this.

Have to agree, we do not know what the question is he is responding to. Put a mike on the reporter.

Video doesn't start until 11:40 minutes in, in case you're wondering like I was. You're welcome.

Why do they put these out there but the interview doesn't start until a few minutes into the video? What was going on in the first 11 and a half minutes?

Well if they hope to advance in the NCAA tournament they had better get used to four games in 9 days.

Well, sure but the teams they will be playing as the tourney wears on will have pretty much the same schedule.

I just checked - including last night’s game, Butler played 4 games in 14 days vs UConn’s 4 in 9 days. Hurley was on to something.

Also, at least since the Providence game, Cam and Newton rarely sit, playing 37-39 minutes a game. Castle played 37 vs st john's with AK out. It didn't hurt Cam, but Newton and Castle were not as sharp last night.

Didn't want to start a new thread for this so I'm putting it here.

Hurley often seems to find a way to mix funny, pop culture references as metaphors for his team or players. Often, he goes the pro wresting or MMA route. He called a recent slugfest with Providence a "steel cage match." When asked how Karaban sustained a bloody gash over his right eye last month at Xavier, Hurley reported that the referees "were not sure why his eye started bleeding."

That is...awesome. Very Fletch-like.

Whatever will they do with the prospect of 82 games, each at least 48 minutes?
