Week 4: Other Games

Fran just killed them the last 10 minutes of the game. Cuse is in a tough spot. JB clearly doesn't want to retire. Do they force him out? The Hopkins fiasco killed that program.

That job is becoming less attractive by the day. Their old recruiting hotbeds are now in Big East and Big Ten territory.
People forget he retired/unretires like a decade ago it seems
 
For anyone looking for an appetizer prior to the other BE games starting and appreciates Big 5 basketball, La Salle plays Temple at the Palestra 6 PM on ESPN+.

It will be Fran Dunphy's first time coaching against Temple since he was asked to step down from the program.
 
There's been like 4 straight possession of flops in the Duke v Ohio State game. I hate this

Zed Key looks really good though

From the Syracuse board:

UConn 8.
Ouch.

So... after their 'legend' retired, they won another championship, changed coaches again, and are now in the top 10. We can't do that, though, right?

The only thing they have left at this point is this bizarre notion that Syracuse is somehow a preferable place to live.
 
Maquette is looking really good against Baylor. If not for a few really deep three point shots, Baylor would be down 40. Marquette is unranked, and Baylor is ranked sixth. Reminds me of game in 1993 where Virginia was ranked sixth and Connecticut was unranked and UConn totally dominated.
Worst home loss for Virginia, ever.
 
Notre Dame absolutely blitzing Michigan State, Cormac Ryan singlehandedly blitzing them.

I smile every time I see the Hartford Hawks win. Good for those kids. They’re in a terrible situation, but still working hard and fighting for wins. Very proud of the kids. Shame on their school and Coach Gallagher for quitting on them.

I kinda want UNC to win bc it makes UConn look a bit better and I want another undefeated team off the board, but I also just want them to lose. Tough choice.

MSU looks like trash. They play like some of UConn's worst teams, all junk 1 on 1.

UNC is the same. They're running screen actions to get Davis and Love long 2s. And when they're not, Davis and Love are still just pulling up for long 2s.

I think Hubert Davis might be thought about like Kevin Ollie in a few years...

Agree on the first point. Not sure on the second point. Ollie pretty much gave up.

I fully expect Hubert to go like Mike Davis and Kevin Ollie. Caught lightning in a bottle right away at a powerhouse and then reality sets in.
 
I hadn't watched an Indiana home game in such a long time and I couldn't help but notice the architecture. Such a strange/unique design for a basketball arena. You've got these huge concrete walls on both ends of the court taking up space, yet the place seats 17k. Seemed like going back in time tonight.

Please tell me someone else saw the catastrophe that was the end of regulation of Samford-DePaul.

I watched uNC's huddles in one of the PKI games and it was the same as what I've seen going on in Memphis' huddles. Maybe not all the time, but it seems to be most of the time, an assistant speaks with the players in the huddle, not the HC.

When Hubert (like Hardaway) calls a timeout, an assistant, in uNC's case, some middle aged white guy with a clipboard, talks to the team. It's like Hubert doesn't know what to say.

My brother in law disagrees and told me he took the team to the championship game his first year, to which I responded KO won the championship in his second year and look what happened after that. We shall see, but it's hard to believe he's the answer when he has no head coaching experience and in today's world how much time will uNC give him to grow into the job?

And overtime.

I don't know how to describe it. I've never seen a team try to close out another team by sending them to the free thrown line 800 times.

Nothing quite like Assembly Hall and the tradition it brings to the IU campus. Little 500 is held at the soccer stadium. The old fieldhouse in the center of campus has some some of the most competitive pick up hoop games anywhere. It's nice to see my school become relevant again in hoops- Thank you Mike Woodson

It’s nice to see IU successful again. Can you touch upon how Mike Woodson is recruiting so well?
 
The most important thing he did for this season is to get Trace Jackson Davis and Race Thompson to return. Having an NBA background will definitely help him recruit.

IU has not done a good job keeping Indiana kids in state- Matt Painter at Purdue has landed 4 Mr Basketball kids for his program.
I think 80% of the Boilermaker squad is Indiana kids.
The IU /Purdue games will be incredible this year
