Some big dogfights tonight! Maryland with its hands full against Michigan, ND and Boston College close early, and South Carolina with Ole Miss hanging around. And then Duke.
Maryland only up by two by end of 3rd qtr. Wow!
Oops! Spoke too soon. ND now up, and SC pulling away.

Oh well, only Duke is in trouble of the top teams. Others seem to be pulling away now.

I get anxious before and during most Duke games........ so its hard to post right before and during games. So far, so good...... better movement an passing this game..... offense not bogging down..... yet. Hicks being in foul trouble has been a tremendous help. Think our overall depth will win it for us in the end..... VPI just doesnt get much at all from the bench.
Thats a HE.
And thats next week..... Duck Donuts doesnt open for a few more days. Gotta get myself mentally and physically prepared

Suddenly Duke is just laying the wood on Virginia Tech.

I left for a second and came back and the referees had to seperate Coach McCallie and the VPI Coach....... they were discussing something about an intentional foul... and suddenly Coach Brooks gets upset and starts pointing his finger towards McCallie. Gotta look at the replay later to see how that started.

Wow, really? I don't know the guy personally, but I've never seen Brooks be anything but mild-mannered.

Inside joke. Triad has a close relationship to all things food.

Me either..... I like Brooks as a coach. Glad he is at VPI.

The first Quarter was a bit shaky but Lexi really turned it on and made me look good with my prognosticating. I didn't get what VPI/VT coach was upset about so if you glean anything please post it. Happy for you Triad though FSU looks very strong and may take ND up there!

Brown's a complete scorer.....3pt threat... mid-range... post-up (on guards) .... tough in transition.... and a 93% FT shooter.
They called an intentional foul on hicks..... not sure if it was called a flagrant or not.

Ok... I watched the replay. Here is my interpretation. Lexie Brown was driving for a fast break layup.... Hicks went for the block and fouled her hard... sending Brown sprawling to the floor. She got off the floor real quick... and appeared to take umbrage with the hard foul, but cooler heads prevailed. Dee Katner and another ref went to the monitor to check if it was a flagrant foul.. and proceeded to call both coaches together to discuss the situation. Brooks didnt like what he was hearing... that Hicks was going to be called for a flagrant... protested... and McCallie.... still miffed on the hard foul on Brown... chirped in... and that really set Brooks off. So the coaches started barking at each other for a few seconds.... while the refs pushed them away from each other............ while Brooks continued to gesture towards McCallie.
After the game.... Brooks went through the handshake line quicker than me at a salad bar
Walked right by McCallie without a handshake... didnt even look at her direction

HAD to see that. ESPN3, 2:45 in the 3rd.
No replay shown, but from what I could see it didn't look like all that much of a hard foul, although Hick's arm may have hit Brown's head (clearly not an intentional hit to the head); I've seen a LOT worse than that get by with just a plain ol' foul. BUT...no advantage of replays to see it really well.
Regardless, it is clear that Brooks was reacting specifically to something McCallie said. As soon as they got together with Dee Kantner, McCallie was jawing at Brooks. I'd sure like to know what she said.
That should add a little spice to the ACC tournament if those two meet!
