Seems like Pedulla for Ole Miss is what we were hoping Mahaney would be for us...

Mostly because Chris Beard is a pile of doodoo

I am glad Sparty will advance. I didn't want that trash bucket Chris Beard becoming the face of this tournament.

This was a sick dunk by Carr

I’m not cool with Beard but Izzo’s got his share of skeletons. Most of these guys do. I just find the veneration of any of these guys kind of odd, and I’ve never been an MSU or Izzo fan.

He's one of the biggest freaks of all-time. His ft line dunks don't even look real.




COEN CARR JUST WENT BETWEEN THE LEGS FROM THE FOUL LINE OVER 4 PEOPLE #teamflightbrothers

I'd give all the NIL money to Pedulla

Lotta dough just changed hands a la Duhon in 2004.

Funny game to play of guess these sweet 16 teams

It kinda sums up where we’re at in 2025 when the SEC has 7 teams in the Sweet 16 yet only 14ish total players on that list started their careers in the conference. Also, it seems like half of those that I counted started at a different SEC school before reaching the Sweet 16 at their current university.

The way he cocks this one back - dude's a highlight film.

Pettiford's got the sauce. Fun player to watch

 

[BGesus4]

Pettiford = Jeff Teague

 

[Drame]

Petiford looks like hes worth all the money he got. He got offered a lot and early.

 

[BigErnMcCracken]

Need Baker-Mazzara to punch someone in the face ASAP.

 

[Drame]

Michigan guards are bad.. Unforced turnovers left and right.

An entertaining podcast host?

It shows how inexact high school recruiting rankings are. Pettiford was ranked #29, Nowell was ranked #33.

 

[AdamaNation]

Michigan pg Donaldson is trash. Total head case trying to prove something to his old team. Keep him off the floor dusty!!!!

 

[aceboon]

Auburn vs Michigan is pure slop

Petiford was ranked top 10, top 5 for most of his high school career. He slipped a bit his senior year because he basically took the year off.

 

[aceboon]

Purdue shouldn't have been placed in the Midwest region

 

[CardiacAndre7]

Both these games are sorta disgusting

 

[superjohn]

The Wolf kid from Michigan looks pretty good. I feel like I've heard about the Michigan Wolf before.

 

[Dooooooomed]

Indiana is gonna come to deeply regret not hiring Dusty May last year.

When? I don't remember that and I followed his recruitment. He was ranked in the 40's on 247 in 2022, ranked in the 30's and 20's in '23 and finished ranked 29th in '24.

 

[AdamaNation]

Donaldson must be point shaving blue chips style. He’s the worst high major guard I’ve ever seen. He is incapable of making a good play

 

[Shine21]

Pettiford reminds me of Brandon Jennings. If we had a guard like that we'll be on our way to the Elite 8.

 

[CardiacAndre7]

Finally some other guys stepped up on Auburn outside of Broome. Jones and Pettiford have been insane

 

[HCCForever]

Nice shot by Pettiford when it liked like a turnover and then the fall away

He's ridiculously good. It kills me he chose Auburn over UConn with the relationship Hurley had with him.

 

[Askgreek]

Yup, take him off Auburn and add him to our roster this year, we still be playing and Auburn would be home. Dynamic lead guard is exactly what we were missing this year.
