  1. In a small irony -- Troy Williams' aunt is Auburn's coach.
  2. And this is what makes what happened with Curt Miller so maddening. The guy is the reigning WNBA Coach of the Year and reportedly, his dream job was IU. I can't help but wonder if we'd be a consistent top 25 program by now if he had stayed.
  3. This opens up a scholly for Darius. Oh, wait ... Nevermind.
  4. I'm disappointed in the obvious bias the CFP committee showed against seven-loss teams.
  5. Back in 2008, Clemson fired Tommy Bowden and replaced him with the team's OC, a fellow who had never been a head coach anywhere -- Dabo Swinney. He finished out the season, going 4-3. After that, he had a winning season, then a losing season -- then took off into the stratosphere. I'm predicting the same success for Tom Allen. Or not.
  6. Kyle Guy with 21 for U.Va. today against Lehigh. Boy, wouldn't it be nice to see him chuckin' it from the cheap seats while wearing the cream & crimson! Especially this season, when we apparently have nobody who can shoot from beyond 10 feet. With us, Notre Dame and the Purdues, our Mr. Basketballs should not be getting away from the state! (Of course, I prefer they go to B-town, but still ...)
  7. I wasn't talking about defense.
  8. Crean's offense seemed to ignore the inside game. Archie's seems to ignore a perimeter attack. We have to find a happy medium. We're not gonna win many games by making five or fewer 3s.
  9. Archie must be REALLY pissed at CuJo. When's the last time that dude has played?
  10. FINISH THAT! Work so hard and make such a nice move to get to bucket only to miss a layup.
  11. I wanna go all Norman Dale on these guys. "You gotta pop the ball. ... Pop it!" Our passes are so freakin' lazy.
  12. He's a bit slow, but if he squared the guy up, he might have had a chance. He overplayed the right and the kid blew right past him to the left.
  13. Got lucky there, but that was ANOTHER LAZY PASS!
  14. Boom. Just like that the lead is back up to 13. God, we can't handle success today. WHY DO WE KEEP LOSING TRACK OF THEIR SHOOTERS!
  15. Totally bailed out the Maize & Blue with that call. The ref from way outside made that call. The one right there let it go.
  16. Holy crap -- a 6-0 run! And we're still down by double digits.
  17. Morgan gets the ball down low. They double down on him. Newkirk is wide open on the perimeter, but Morgan knows he can't kick it back out because our outside shooters couldn't hit a 3 if there were nobody in the gym.
  18. Archie's first words to RoJo at halftime.
  19. Miss a bunny, then give them a 3 -- 5-point swing right there.
  20. Feeding the big boys worked great against Duke and we're shown flashes -- very brief, albeit -- of it here. But the truth is, if we can't hit outside shots, we're gonna struggle every single game against good teams. When you struggle mightily to get 2s and the other team is hitting 3s -- that's a recipe for disaster.
  21. Not that one call is gonna make a difference, but those dudes grabbed poor McRoberts and just threw him to the floor!
  22. For as much value as we're getting out of our possessions, they might as well play "Make it. Take it."
