IU. 74 UConn. 86

Love these stories. Un-recruited out of Terre Haute South. 2 years at Vincennes and turned himself into a mid-major guy. Went to Wichita St and barely played his 1st year. Started for 2 years. Had a nice 2nd year. Undrafted. Now getting minutes in the League and has a chance to stay. Nobody gave that kid anything. Good for him.

Saw this pic and immediately thought, damn, the job’s got him smoking

Wow, side judge in the Oregon-ASU game just got wiped out. There is no way that guy’s ok.

Tom is playing chess while every other coach in history is playing checkers!

Doesn’t get much more gross than this.

IU. 24 MSU. 20

Absolutely. Went after a ref after a game at Flyin’ to the Hoop last year. Had to be restrained by multiple teammates. Kid’s got issues.

HS teammate of Jakai Newton. Between the 2 of them and another former teammate, Qua Brown, who’s not playing this year due to an Achilles, Newton HS kids can’t catch a break.

You have a 7’1” condor at the rack to challenge the drive. You. Don’t. Leave. Shooters.

This team’s lack of help discipline is killing me, Galloway did not need help, but Gunn scrambles and puts Reneau into rotation and he was never gonna get there. Just do your job.

I think it might be the 2nd one.

IU. 82 WSU 68

Made a catch on, I believe, his 1st basket, that was just awesome and he made it look like no big deal. There may not be a better physical trait in HS basketball than Derik Queen’s hands. That kid catches everything.

Not tonight. This team has a couple of kids who are legit D-1 types. 39-22 at halftime. McNeeley with 6. Hasn’t shot great, but floor game has been impeccable. The kid can really play.

I guess they’re trying to make Montverde’s game tonight a little more interesting by spotting the opponent a couple of points.

What a beautiful, unique record. Gonna have to listen to it tonight.

I’m feeling a solution to our problem. A&M could use a serious dose of #LEO. But, seriously, how much substantively worse would CTA be in College Station than Kliff freaking Kingsbury? Has anyone ever gone farther doing less?

One of the great tv lines ever, Spike, from Buffy the Vampire Slayer: “If every vampire who said he was at the crucifixion was actually there it would have looked like Woodstock.”

I am so gonna stand and applaud at tip-off. No one deserves to lose that one.

https://www.espn.com/mens-college-basketball/boxscore/_/gameId/401589372 This is the box score from Wright St’s season opener against Colorado St, and this is one to behold. CSU dropped 60 on them in the 2nd half, shot 63% for the game and had 37 assists on 42 baskets. So, either CSU is the Golden State Warriors or Wright State can’t defend a lick.

If you had a dollar for every time we start with some derivation of “The Hysterics were a bit cringey….” you’d have that Battle for Atlantis trip covered.

Well, it was no Moses Abraham, but we paid some attention.
