And the rest of the year? College basketball viewership and attendance had been going down for years and last year was at its worst. So was scoring actually. I don't know how the viewing and attendance is this year though.

I do wanna see Harry Giles play... Duke will be really good... Giles, Tatum, Jackson and DeLaurier conning in. Lennard, Jeter, Thornton, Allen... if Jefferson came back wow... I don't even know who would start. Thornton, Allen, Tatum, Giles, Jefferson... Jackson, Lennard, Tatum, Giles and Jeter. Crazy.

That's not fair! Duke and Kentucky will be the favorites next year with ease.

That'd be massive for Duke with what they have coming in and returning next year... that wouldn't be fair.

You don't understand the Kentucky love? Really? Calipari for a coach. It is the most successful CBB program in history. They sent like 20 players to the NBA that include John Wall, Boogie Cousibs, Karl Anthony-Towns, Eric Bledsoe, Brandon Knight abs the last goes on. Several were lottery picks... it is pretty easy to see actually. No one else is even close to what Kentucky has done under Cal. So they cater to what will get interest. That gets it.

Because college basketball has been a declining sport for quite some time now. Soccer on the other hand is a growing sport in the US. In 20 years it could be the #1 sport in America.

Well idk how he's making college basketball look bad... he's pretty good at it.. makes it look pretty easy... but this is the Buddy Hield award this year.

You only consider me to be "trolling" because you disagree with me. When nothing I said is trolling, out of line, off topic, attacking anyone or out of possibility towards the question. Just because someone isn't joyful and being "homer" doesn't make them a troll. But you can consider me one if you'd like. It does not bother me.

If FGCU loses to Stetson then North Florida goes to the tourney... crazy right?

I think our ceiling is a low 2 seed.. a 3 seed seems most plausible. We just don't have the wins and losses to Wake Forest, UNLV and Penn State just really really hurt.

These refs are garbage. Way too much physical play being allowed for NW.

All body... and of course no foul.

Wait... how is the Big 12 a joke?

I watch for certain personalities. On Highly Questionable, PTI, Sports Nation, Around the Horn. First Take at times. But often. Can't stand His and Hers. SC just bores me sometimes.

ESPN is in the entertainment business. So they have to choose entertainment over news. Sportscenter is for news. The other shows are entertainment.

Well if you don't like anyone on ESPN... Why watch it?

Stetson isn't allowed to be in the tourney this year. BUT.. they play Florida Gulf Coast in the Atlantic Sun Conference Tournament Championship... Obviously if FGCU wins they go to the NCAA tourney after being a 4 seed in their conference tourney and beating the 1 seeded North Florida team by 32 tonight. Now.. if Stetson beats FGCU... then the regular season champ goes to the NCAA tourney.. which is North Florida.. who just lost to FGCU by 32... stupid.

Well we don't have a PG coming in as half as talented as he was as a freshman. We have a bunch of SG's that will try to run the point. Personally I think that is going to be a disaster. But we'll see what happens.

I'm assuming you just don't watch ESPN.

So you're saying we need a student to create the most successful shoe brand on the planet? I like it.

*sigh* Stephen A..... or *sigh* Skip Bayless.... I can watch First Take every now and then. But they almost seem to be acting most of the time with their reactions.

lol

What's that supposed to mean?

In your opinion.
