      No, I didn't see it.  I saw KU player take half the steps of the OSU player last night and get called for a travel.  haha

    KU had the win and then... yeah.  Up 5 with 18.9 seconds

      They've played a couple of really good games in a row.  I just see them getting in a bad matchup and completely throwing it away.  I guess you can call it a history of pu purduing the crap out of things.

    Wayne Seldon just took the elevator to the top floor.  WOW!!!   Wasn't someone saying that Yogi, JBJ, and Troy outplayed several KU players at a camp this past summer?

      With Iowa and Indiana losing, pu won't have a "quality" win in the BTT before the committee finalizes their brackets.  Maryland is in a similar situation in that they won't get a quality win against Nebraska.  Yes, they reached the semi-finals or finals but they're good wins in the BTT but not really quality.  Notre Dame is getting hammered.  I guess Cal or Zona and Texas A&M or Kensucky could make up the difference but it will take several things to go against us to move us all the way down to a 5.  I don't see it happening.
  8. This is hard to answer without seeing brackets or watching the team play the actual games.  I could give an answer of "Final Four" but I'm not sure I'm being honest with myself without seeing how things play out.   Example:  2011-2012 we made the Sweet 16 but it felt like we were one of the best 6-8 teams at the end of that year.  We just ran up against the eventual NC team that made a ridiculous number of FTs to beat us.  2012-2013 we also made a Sweet 16 but were fading down the stretch.  If we get beat by Kansas in the Sweet 16 after playing a great game but Kansas just playing better I'm not sure I could be upset about that.    Win or lose, I will be upset with any game the team just goes through the motions.  This team is better than that.

      He wasn't too happy with his squad at halftime when they were only up 7.

      We won't drop to a 5 but we're likely off the 3 line.

    pu hitting outside shots can be dangerous.  They also stopped turning it over.

      Was getting ready to edit.  You shorter your rotation and stay with the hot hand (offense and defense) longer.

      There are a TON of differences.  Just a few   -  You stop runs (Crean weakness) -  You play more to your strengths and make the opponent pay when they take it away -  You have your team prepared and ready to play and understand the implications -  You take TOs in crucial times to stop runs and draw plays to get buckets   IU/Crean did not do enough of those to earn the win today.

    Texas A&M hangs on to beat the 8 seed Florida Gators.  Gators probably out
  17. Who do you have winning in the quarterfinals tomorrow?  Why?   Day 2 was a bit crazy.  Zero picks for the Illinois and Nebraska wins.

    Wait, there's no difference between coaching regular season games and tourney games?  Is this a serious statement?

      Florida needs it to get in.  Let's see if a 1 seed can hold on against a team that really needs it.
  20. If the team needed rest the best way to do that is play your backside off and win a few B1G tourney games so you get a few easy games to start the NCAA tourney.  You don't come out half asleep and just go through the motions in your first tourney games.
  21.   Dude had a really rough game.  Not sure what he was seeing to begin the second half.

    Prediction League (B1G Tournamen Quarterfinals

    Well that got off to a bad start lol
  23.   He can but he still made frosh mistakes that cost us some points and gave up some points.  I'm confident he will learn and be better. 
  24.   They made the shots when needed but look at the plan...  OG came off a knockdown three shooter to help.  Z helped off strong side shooter.  The help defender should be coming from the opposite side of the floor.  That needs to be fixed.
  25. I knew if Michigan kept it close they would win
