Unless things have really changed since I left Indy the idea that as cool as it is Hinkle is some sort of smoking home court advantage is pretty funny. Ditto with #7. Maybe it’s pretty wild when they’re good, but Providence lost 6 home games last year. How tough could it have been? 

Clearly a parody because #4 has never won jack squat.

Hate to do this to ya, but that’s a parody account. 

No college basketball reporter would have Cameron Indoor that low and below Hinkle or Bud Walton.  It is top 3 with those fans on top of the court like they are.  You can tell how rowdy they get on TV like they can at AH when IU is good.

That’s a nasty loss.

Estrella and all the other integral pieces staying with Michigan. So, there’s that.

Gonna make Mike Boynton look good for this year. Hopefully that will be enough to produce a "Mike Davis effect" and have them lock in Boynton for the long haul.

100%. I think he could be a dynamite recruiter with Michigan resources and cool factor, but as a coach so far, leaves a lot to be desired.

Probably 1 of the top 3 or so talents in the world regardless of class. Will play the entire ‘26 season as a 17yo.

So who ponied up some serious money at Michigan?  Multiple announcements of players remaining at Michigan and not entering the portal following May's departure.

@Demo spreading false news again!!  lol

Serbian international star Nikola Kusturica has not officially committed to UCLA, sources confirm to @247Sports . Sources also refute the rumored financial deal. While UCLA remains in a strong position, Kusturica’s decision is not expected until after the FIBA U17 World Cup.

For those who are either sick of the NFL, want to expel all the extra calories you eat on Thanksgiving, or you're USPS.

They’re playing it at “Pizza Pizza Arena” on Thanksgiving? That’s unfortunate.

Is it wrong that I prefer Calipari between those two? It feels dirty, but I detest Izzo. I'd also prefer this game over the NFL.
