I really wanted Michigan to face Mount St. Mary’s over Texas Southern in the 1/16 game last year because of the MSM point guard Damian Chong Qui. Turns out he has transferred to Purdue-Fort Wayne and we will get to face him after all!
I would like to say, today is one of my favorite days of the year. I love college basketball and I love this place. Without this forum, I have no one to discuss college basketball with. In my day to day life, there aren’t too many folks that are willing to break down Wednesday night Big Ten games between Rutgers and Nebraska. I’m so appreciative that I have umhoops and I can’t wait for another year. Happy basketball season everyone!
Cal is our first #brutality victim, losing at home to UC San Diego who just moved to D1 last season.
The universe demands a Cal, Georgia, Minnesota, Boston College, Iowa State, Depaul MTE.
UC San Diego has a very bright future in D1. Santa Barbara, Irvine, and Davis generally finish as the Big West top 3 in some order and even Riverside, the relative runt, has had a really nice rebuild the past four years.
Those would be nice teams to have local. They would be fun to follow.
Golden Grizz hanging tough with WVU
Not thrilled to hear Jon Crispin with Bennetti on the OSU/Akron game. If Crispin is the Dakich replacement for B1G games not sure that’s an upgrade. And an upgrade on Dakich asking for much.
Not that I’m complaining but that was a bruuuutal foul call against Liddell.
Emoni Bates 1-1 so far with a 3. Duren 4-5 from the field.
The Citadel just blew out Pittsburgh
I don’t care about this CFP crapola, get to UK-Duke
Lofton on SEC Network rn FWIW against Bama. Making some buckets and drawing fouls hitting the offensive glass. He’s really good at carving out space down there but man he really gets off the floor too.
Bama looks like Bama. Maybe can’t shoot but defends and runs and the floor spacing is good.
Gonna have to watch Duke games on mute this year
TyTy and Sahvir starting
Gonzaga is playing something called “Dixie State” today. Never heard of that. Sounds like an NAIA school or something. Maybe one of those fictional schools from a romcom
THIS year?? I have been doing that since Laettner played there and annoyed the crap out of me.
Future Utah Tech University
If someone wanted to kill John Beilein they would just make him coach this Kentucky team. Nothing but bricks and ORebs at one end, blocks and fouls at the other
Pretty crazy that Cal took Toppin solely because of who his brother was.
posted about ku not really being a get off the bus team, wooooh boy the opposite is true for duke
