I respect that they have an identity of a style of play which I think works in college basketball but I think they are too susceptible to a good shooting team with a strong rebounder in single game elimination tournament. Frankly, I think Purdue could give them problems.

itâs a real science experiment watching Louisville @ Notre Dame this morn. Notre Dame is already up 17 in the 1H but they havenât played well and they are clearly not a good team. Louisville just has an incomprehensible stench. Itâs like watching Minnesota beat up on a D3 team

I have a very hard time understanding how Louisville got THIS bad
I know there was lots of attrition, but they have 5 top 100 kids from the last 2 classes.

Iâm writing up a new set of lesson plans for my science class right now:
Problem: What is more likely to cause cringe-induced alcohol consumption, watching Louisville or Florida State MBB?
Hypothesis: Watching Louisville MBB will be more likely to cause cringe-inducing alcohol consumption.
Scientific Procedure: Place an open and full container of BigBoutrosâs alcohol-laden beverage of choice on a table in front of BigBoutros. Have BigBoutros watch a Louisville MBB game on television and start a timer. At the moment when the subject consumes the last of the contents of the container stop the timer. Repeat the above procedure but with the subject watching a Florida State MBB game.
This is a scientific experiment that I may have to try some day.

Fantastic protocol. If we could wager on it, even better.
If you would like to start doing a multi-factor DOEâŚmaybe include teams coaches by Mike White or Greg Gard.

Old friend Dave DeJulius taking on Houston on CBS. DDJ just hit an improbable fadeaway at the end of a poor offensive sequence, but it was ruled to be after the shot clock expired.
And now just drilled a three.

final ND 76 - 62 ULâŚwas 62-34 with 15 mins to go when ND basically stopped playing.
they were 1-9 in the ACC and in the 160s on KP/BT entering today.
bonus: NDâs defense is #272 on BT, by far the worst in the P6. Next is Cal at #220.
Louisville did not crack 1 PPP even with all that garbage time.

I have actually never partaken but Mike White would pose the gravest threat to my teetotalism
Louisville is currently the lowest ranked high major on KenPom ever

I think TTU is the team to worry about in that scenario. WVU got a much needed resume win tho

I know it was asked earlier this week but Payne canât survive in this scenario can he?

I donât think so. He wasnât an emergency hire or interim. They parted ways with Mack to get Payne and got Payne to get DJ Wagner. Whiffed on him, strike one, but they have six top-100s on the roster.
If they were just normal bad I wouldnât entertain it but they are currently the worst P6 team of all time as @ReegsShannon said.

Kinda wonder why we didnât enquire about any if the St. bonaventure kids.
Lofton, Holmes, Welch . We didnât need the big man but he was good too.
Would love one of the three above
