Marquette- Big East UK- SEC Louisville- ACC Kansas St- Big 12 Love it. Now if they could just schedule a PAC 12 ga……Nevermind.

Ok, someone please clarify, is it Hansen Yang or Yang Hansen? Either is an objectively awesome name.

Got to post every NBA draft season because it will never not be hysterical.

IUBB hosting Kansas St at AH 11/25 per a bunch of folks.

Was just getting ready to post this. To anyone who is well-versed or cares about this sort of thing, am I, as someone who isn’t and doesn’t, impacted in any meaningful way here?

I think there’s a pretty decent chance that Ainge drafted him as an asset and not a piece and he’s open for business on moving him on to 1 of the teams that wants the kid. They’ve got a ton of overlapping pieces and maybe they use him to make a deal to get off a contract like Sexton or Clarkson. Or, they think the kid’s a star and there’s nothing he’s gonna do about it.

Silver said during the broadcast last night that there were 7 achilles injuries League-wide this year after none last year and they’re digging into it. And the Pacers had 3 of them? I’m not a statistician but the odds of that sound kind of long.

Wow, to add insult to the injury of how badly he lost the genetic lotto, as Cooper Flagg’s hugging his twin brother Ace after being drafted it’s pretty clear that Ace at the ripe old age of 18 has a receding hairline. Swear to God, that kid can’t catch a break.

Congrats to the young man. Imagine a fair part of it was a combination of an early offer and relationship there combined with him pretty clearly wanting to be a PG which Martelli I’m sure was willing to commit to and I doubt IU or UT would. Personally, I didn’t love him and don’t regret a miss here. Would be far more disappointed missing on Moody.

Interesting that 90 mins from his announcement there are still no crystal ball predictions entered. Kudos to his people for keeping their mouths shut.

Link to Jackson’s commitment announcement. 5pm ET.

I tend to agree. Think Rabby’s assessment that he’s purely developmental is probably off. He’s not Jakucionis, but he’s got a great frame, a pretty stroke, enough athleticism and he looks like he knows how to play. His handle needs to tighten up, but unless his defense is just unplayable he looks like he’s got a shot to be your 3rd guard.

Have always liked Bozich. And I really like him describing Cal as “scuttling” the IU-UK series. That’s as subtle as a kick in the head.

Don’t know if it’s exactly pre-determined, but I seem to recall either reading or him saying that he’s basically just waiting for a Duke offer.
