January: Other NCAA Games

George Washington destroying Dayton at halftime. Not a great scoreline for our NET.

I mean they’re down 11. Long way to go

It was 16 at halftime, but Dayton scored the first 8 of the 2H. Looks like they've woken up a bit.

I feel like I'm already pushing the boundaries of what we can and can't talk about, it was stated a little more explicitly on Storrs Central if you're a subscriber there. We were always going to need to bring in another ball handler as a backup PG even if they took Brea and not Mahaney. And that's where you start to see the minutes crunch and some guys being unhappy

That part makes sense - and I’m sure the NIL allocation played a part. It’s hard to argue the logic and if the ball handler we needed lived up to expectations this isn’t a second guessing situation. Just have to cross fingers that it figures itself out by end of season. Brea plays with such confidence - fun to watch. In hindsight it questions if it would have been a difference maker for this roster.

Nice win for UK - Pope continues to impress. Guy pulled a full portal roster together and has them gelled in half a season. Makes a lot of adjustments and always positive. Hard not to like. That was a high end matchup, might have been best game of year.

I didn’t read the investigative reporting - what did it say? I mostly dislike him over his comments immediately after where he downplayed the situation and appeared callous

“The head coach had told reporters Miller was ‘not in any trouble.’ ‘We knew about that,’ Oats said. ‘Can't control everything anybody does outside of practice.’”

Not hard to just say no comment, we will comply with the investigation. That whole situation reeked of corruption and privilege for a top athlete, anyway

The evidence raises questions about the prosecution's case, while also shedding light on why superstar Brandon Miller has not been charged.

Admittedly it’s against TN’s elite defense, but man, Arkansas seems to have no concept of what to do on offense after “send boogie around a screen and see what happens”. Their buckets so far have been mostly contested prayers.

#10Kentucky and #6Florida just gave up a hundred points, in a college game, in regulation.
Can we relax with the “UConn can’t compete for a title with that defense” narrative please?

Entertaining Hubert Davis Deathwatch game between UNC and Notre Dame.

 

[superjohn]

George Washington blew it wide open late for a 20 point win over Dayton. Christian Jones freshman for GW from Startford, CT had 23 points.

Gee imagine that??? You mean they aren’t well coached?? That’s just shocking.

Hubert Davis and UNC needed that one bad, might have got away with a foul at the end there

Hero ball by the ND point guard on that last possession lent a helping hand to UNC.

And they lost by 20. Smh

4 secs left and he got all the way to the rim in a one point game, that's a great look

 

[UCFan1513]

Dayton losing by 20 and DePaul by 34 dropped our Kenpom 4 spots already

 

[AzHusky]

ND point guard was also fouled on the last second shot with no call. They made the call on the 3 point shot, why not on the drive to the basket?

 

[gsmooth]

And they lost by 20. Smh

And Dayton looked demoralized and defeated. It reminded me of Memphis looking the same way with their blowout loss at home to Mississippi State. Not that Memphis games was a blowout from start to finish.

 

[storrsroars]

The GW-URI game has been entertaining. URI was down big, tied with 2 mins left, now up 3 with 23 secs left.

 

[storrsroars]

Looks like Cincy is packing up and moving out of the top 25 for good.

 

[BFieldHusky]

Looks like Cincy is packing up and moving out of the top 25 for good.

They are so overrated. I don't think they are even a tournament team.

 

[gsmooth]

Hold that thought boys. Cincinnati has cut an 18 pt deficit to 3 with 2 minutes and change left
