Not when you've got Kyle Guy, who can hit from anywhere on the court. U.Va. now leading. 

If only we'd have gotten rid of the Clapper sooner.  What a Hoosier Guy would have been.

For some reason I just imagined the lights in AH being controlled by a "clapper" while Crean was coaching.  Seizures everywhere.

Cavs win 59-55. ... I know many people think Tony Bennett's teams are boring, but I like watching them play. Plus, Devon Hall used to live right across the street from me! ... I still wonder: Had things not gone bad with Kathi, would we have had a chance to hire Bennett in '08? He was one of the hot coaching candidates then. Supposedly one of the reasons he wasn't interested in the job was he wasn't happy with the way IU dealt with his sister.

That was the main reason he turned us down.  I am happy with Archie but Bennett would've done wonders here.

Archie may do wonders too. Remember, Bennett went 15-16 and 16-15 his first two years at UVA.

There was also the belief at the time he was holding out for Wisconsin.

He very well may.  I've said many times on here that you can't judge a guy by his first season or two.  See Roy who was a bubble team with 3 top 10 recruits his first season at UNC.  Or Marshall who was magnificent at Winthrop but took a couple years to get WSU going.  Or Pitino's first year at UL.  You get the drift.

The biggest hold up was his sister's firing.  He also supposedly didnt want a pressure cooker job.

And UNC's kids didn't have to go to class or do schoolwork!

Yeah Romeo supposedly has his UNC degree at home in New Albany that he received during Late Night with Roy.

LMFAO - Archie is the answer. 3 years. (Elite 8 min). Everybody else puts out BS predictions, so I thought I would give mine.

Purdue just does not impress me.  I'm sure I sound like a hater, but they just don't look like a top 5 team at all.

Great game by OSU at Purdue.
