    Pretty much everyone actually (if only due to their AQ status)

    Tom Crean to Alabama Rumor Thread

    Not to mention, 1-2 players can turn around a program- unlike football.

    Assembly Hall

    So, I'm just throwing this out there- "Modern Arenas" like the Yum! Center are miserible excuses for home-courts. Give me Assembly Hall 10 times out of 10.

    I've always graded CTC as a (+) recruiter, (+) for player development, average for game prep, (-) for in-game adjustment. He gets out-coached in game a fair amount, though I feel he at least brings us prepared more often than not (see our 1st versus 2nd half performances).

    Kentucky or the Field?

    Field. All it takes is one bad/mediocre night or an opponent to have a great night. Ironically, 1 and done could be KYs undoing.

    "...every mediocre coach grows up dreaming about the possibilityof going to a program where, no matter the product on the court, no one will ever notice! The University of Alabama and its students have made a stern commitment to doing everything possible to forget they have a basketball program. I can think of no better place to build a program that no one will ever take notice of."

    Crean...Crean...Cream! Cream comes from Milk, Milk comes from Cows, Cows come from Wisconsin...where Marquette is! Wisconsin is next to Minnesota which is where the Mississippi river starts from...the Mississippi river lets out into the Gulf of Mexico, where the Crimson tide comes from...Crimson Tide is Alabama's nickname. The answer was so obvious, the elephant in the room.   Feel free to quote me as an inside source.

    It was hard to miss the not so subtle orange glow of his skin whenever I went to mass, so I'd say yes.
  12. Is there a way to sign in to the App via Facebook/Twitter l? I want to continue to catch flack for my cautious optimism on the go! A quick guide would be appreciated.

    A few thoughts on Kentucky

    Only players are guilt until proven innocent. Any punishment for the program will come following the investigation.

    Downside to this- Could cost us Christian Watford's younger brother (who's supposed to be a stud)

    I think the biggest thing we're all missing is that the move makes fashion sense-   No need to change wardrobe.
  18. Anyone interested in doing one with people on the board? I'll set it up if it's not already a thing.    ESPN Tournament Challenge Group: BtownBanners Challenge: http://games.espn.go.com/tournament-challenge-bracket/en/group?invitesource=twitter&groupID=63832&inviteuser=MzIyOTA5NDEyA&ex_cid=invite-twitter-tcmen

    A few thoughts on Kentucky

    UK is a Known Unknown- We know they are talented but the SEC's weakness hasn't provided us with an opportunity to see what UK's true ceiling is. They may very well be as far ahead of the field as some people suspect, but they could just as easily be right in line with the other top contenders. In spite of their relatively easy schedule, UK was still tested multiple times by significantly inferior opponents. Their weakness of offense will probably be their undoing; someone will take advantage of a UK drought and go for the throat. While UK is tough to match in a gritty defensive game, teams that can consistently score could find success.   Teams that Could...   -Purdue's interior duo would be the most size UK has seen all year. UK's post players are so used to being lightyears ahead of their opponents that Purdue's strength inside could shake them. Doubtful, but if Hammons/Haas play to their ceilings, it could happen.   -Notre Dame has size, experience (both in seniority and from ACC play), and ability to score. If they can make it that far, Notre Dame might have the tools to win. If they can hold with UK, force a drought, and go for the throat, ND could move on.   -Wisconsin. Same reasons as Notre Dame, just a better product. Kaminsky would put on a clinic in the post.   -UVA/Duke. UVA has the defensive tools and Duke can score.
  20. IU wins but Wichita State manages to hold Yogi Ferrel UNDER 200 points.   IU 81 - 72 WSU

    I'll give it an hour or so for the Mods to set it up (assuming they are), if not, I'll post it. 
  24. Purdue Wins, AJ Hammons and tall-relatively-coordiante-white guy (Haas) have incredible games that convinces them to declare for the NBA before their Sweet-16 matchup and Purdue loses.    Alternate: Roof collapse.
