Makai Ashton-Langford is still at BC, he committed to UConn a couple decades ago.
Expand ...
I literally had the same thought 5 minutes ago. 5 years, best he shot from 3 was 30.8%, 4 years under 30%.

Its bad but somehow BC is not the worst team in the ACC, not even bottom five. They are, in fact, only a game and a half behind Cuse, Wake and UNC.

The bottom of that league is awful, the top of that league isn't so hot either.

Brandon Miller had 41 and the game winner in ot, gross.
Expand ...
Gross, but gotta hand it to him. They started booing him immediately first time he touched the ball. And he was great. Defense against him was horrible end of game and in OT, but SC is bad so that checks out.
 
I checked in for a couple minutes and the UNC - ND game looked downright putrid.

This guy on college basketball live is so pissed off about Bama's handling of this I think I can see steam coming out of his ears.

Nate Oats postgame press conference was nauseating. Screw that that team and University. Wish them the nut worst.

Everyone at the University is somehow looking even worse right now. Tonight they tried to spin it that Miller had no knowledge of the gun being in his car because it was hidden under clothes. They're trying to play it off like Miller just drove to the scene and had no idea the gun was in the backseat.

It's just unbelievable, we have the texts between Miles and Miller and we know Miller drove there to deliver Miles his gun. We know that he knew stuff was going down.

People read the lawyers statement and think a gen Z future NBA lottery pick driving a car with a dash cam can't see a text message while he's in the car for an hour from a guy he's trying to pick up.
 
Oats better make sure he never loses this gig at Bama, I can't see anyone, anywhere consider giving him a job after this.

It is also stunning on a criminal level what the school is willing to overlook. The attorney's statement tells the public that there is sufficient plausible deniability for the school to let him play. While they may not be able to publicly divulge information on this, they could have (and should have) privately asked for far more detail on what happened beyond the brief, carefully crafted statement.

This is without question a situation where the school's stance (from day one) should have been "we aren't letting you play again until we are convinced your involvement was so far removed from this that we can in clear conscience let you play".
 
No one gets more protected then college athletes at SEC schools remember what Hernandez got away with in Gainesville.
Athletes in Tuscaloosa might as well be the Murdaugh family in Hampton county.

Will be interesting how Bama does with the increasing press and pressure being the number 1 team. Did we see any cracks in the armor last night?
 
Rutgers playing in mud in what would be a bad loss at home to Michigan.

Kind of amazing ACC reg season title comes down to final game of Pitt@Miami. Both have beaten UVA, Pitt beat Miami at the Pete. No bluebloods to be found.
Expand ...
Capel is gonna get a nice extension out of this season, which, considering the sad state of ACC basketball this season, will lock Pitt's mediocrity for the foreseeable future.
 
As bad as the Pac 12 is this season, it is still ahead of the ACC in both NET and KenPom. The ACC is truly terrible this season.

He will be hired in a heartbeat. Syracuse would take him in a heartbeat. 100 percent serious

100%. Lunardi has Pitt as a 10 seed and they’re #2 in the conference. The ACC shouldn‘t get more than 3 teams in the tourney (Miami, VA and maybe NC State). Of course, Duke and UNC (somehow) will get in.

IMO, one is either pro-metrics or pro-NET when suggesting who should be in or out. Pitt's metrics aren't good. But their NET holds up against the other three BE teams that aren't yet consider locks.

Better Q1 record (5-3, .625) than the other three.
Better Q1+Q2 record (7-6, .538) than Providence or Creighton.
Better Q3+Q4 record than Xavier.
Better away record than all of them.
 
Iowa State has really spit the bit lately....lost 5 of last 6 including at home to OK today. Big 12 just has no easy games.

I had Mich St +3.5 and they were up 10 with 40 seconds to go. How in gods name do I lose that bet?????
 
BE doesn’t seem to get ranking respect. How is Virginia #6?

Michigan State did everything they could. MSU only had one really bad mistake in that Iowa run, and MSU got a huge bailout call from the refs, and still got tied up. Iowa hit 5 straight 3 pointers.
 
Beautiful buzzer beater in AZ State AZ. Just wow.
