Bummer.

All for nothing LA Tech comes down and scores with 1.3 to go
-
ISU just ran a play to tie the game with a 3. Wow what a set

Cincy goes down to E Michigan. Millers seat is getting hotter

3rd is the word for this player hater
-

Kansas about to 3-0 in this tourney and finish 3rd. Luckily for them they make 300000 for his players. Peterson didn’t even play and he is going to get another bag

Yeah, they showed the three on the bench but offered no explanation. And Eastern is hanging on!

I watched on TV the effort is noticeable. We are much quicker than in the past. Maybe ever. Sent from my SM-S926U using Tapatalk -
The other 2 are out for injury as well

Looks like one is out indefinitely with a knee injury

I’m not sure I will have to check
-
I saw where the Bearkittens are down 3 players. Suspensions?
-
Cincy finally waking up. Hopefully it’s too late but usually in these situations the power 5 team seems to always sneak out with a win. Cincy down 3 with 5:23 to go

To each their own. For me there is no such thing as teams I have little interest in. I have no problem watching any team at anytime. If I waited until championship week to watch some of these smaller conferences and schools then chances are I missed out on a heck of a game on a Tuesday 5 games into the SoCon regular season. For me seeing these little guys play all year makes championship week more exciting since I will know which schools can make a run in their conference tourney. I’m not a regular fan though. Even in the 90’s I was watching small conference teams year round. Having an aunt and uncle who had one of those big satellites gave access to channels from around the US. Going over there and watching West coast games was the best. Boise States old floor brings those memories back. ESPN then had the full court offer that gave you access to all the games for a pay per view type price that I had my parents get and then I got it when I went to college. Now i have just about every streaming service you can think of just to be able to watch as many games as possible. My passion for college basketball hasn’t changed since those early days. I’m known as the college basketball guy and I’m more then ok with that.

Yeah there’s a fair bit of that, though it looks different because Wabbington looks like an athlete and Queen looks like Queen. But a lot of what’s getting done is pretty similar. Side note: this game speaks to what a phenom Koa Peat was in HS. He won either 2 or 3 state championships there and 1st year without him they lost this one at home by 30 and Sunnyslope pulled their starters in the 3rd. -
I guess I am to old school because I see no problem seeing players shoot open 15 foot shots. We have the all time leading scorer in big ten history who made a living on those shots. To me if you use the whole court it makes you harder to defend. I saw many IU teams score over 80 a game without shooting 35 3's. To me it isn't about where you shoot the ball but the quality of the shot and how you get those shots. Guys like Devries and Wilkerson should hit 58+% from an open 15 footer.

Trees down 11 at half

Saw this post and I promptly flipped over to it. 12 pt. lead for E. Mich with 13 to go.

It depends who is playing For me there are to many of these small tournaments where the matchups are teams that I have little interest in. For me the thrill of championship week was seeing these teams for the first time and then watching them in the tournament. Now these guys are on and it makes it less special for me. For the most part it is not knowing most if these rosters and hopefully once conference games start I will be more into it.. Also to me the college game is trying to be more like the NBA and to me that is a negative. I have a hard time enjoying some of the offenses I see because it is to much ball screens and guys just standing in the corners. What I loved about our team early was they actually were screening off the ball and had player movement which is the style I love.

Sounds like heaven

The hardest game on the schedule is getting Cincy right now. Buy game right before break. E Michigan up 13 early in the second half

The last few days I have really tried to watch a lot of these games but I am having trouble getting into a lot of these games. I just think the portal and the NIL stuff has started to dwindle my interest in the games. Even watching the power conference teams I don't know most of the roster. Also the quality of the play in a lot of the games are not up to par. Yes the games have been close but it doesn't mean the quality of play in the court is great. I know I am in the minority but another problem I have is that they have totally oversaturated the product and there are way to many games on at the same time. What use to make me excited about the games were that they use to seem to be an event but now there is a game at anytime so it makes it less special.

This one was so surprising to hear and I never thought was a thing that I was forced to break out Wabbington’s game from last night against Perry HS, Koa Peat’s old school. Not that you didn’t know he was good, but he’s a really fun watch. Strong frame, particularly lower body. Not very vertically explosive but otherwise a very good athlete. Really fluid. Can move his feet and change direction like a smaller kid. As a scorer he plays a pretty traditional post game with the exception that he can really pass. I mean, really pass. Made 1 where he caught it with his back to the basket in the right mid post, felt a double coming from the top, spun to the baseline and fired a laser to the left corner for a 3. Not many HS bigs making that one. Watched it a couple of times. Found a couple of cutters in very small windows. Looks like a very quick processor for a big kid. Will definitely keep paying attention.
