If a buzzer beater happens and I’m the only one that saw it does it really count?

I am sure a lot was watching it but not posting about it.

It was a joke.  Usually 4 or 5 of us post wow at the same time while watching it live

Furman took the lead with 4.3 to go and Chattanooga drains a 3 at the buzzer 

That game?

Truly delivered

That game is what makes championship week so special. It is the thrill of victory and the agony of defeat

BTW, am watching the CAA semifinals and might have found a perfect candidate to be our next coach if Woody doesn't work out.

Takayo Siddle. He's young (35) and is in his second year at UNC Wilmington. 

First year 7--10, 1-6 CAA
Second year 21-8, 15-3 CAA (Coach of the Year) 

He even has a B1G connection -- was an assistant under Holtmann at Gardner-Webb. 

Honestly, I have no idea if the guy can coach or not. I just like the name Takayo Siddle.

A player I taught in high school plays for Delaware.  Unfortunately been out all year with an injury, I believe.  Started a few games for them last year but was hurt the second half of the year.

I haven’t been to a game since pre Covid. We used to go to a handful each year.

Tough call on Charleston.  Looked like a block.   UNCW ball up 1 with 3 sec to go 

[Uspshoosier 44,987]

Fort Wayne down 5 with 17:30 to go in the second half to N Kentucky

That was a horrible call

Fort Wayne is in trouble.   Down 16 with 6:18 min to go

This is easily one of the worst basketball games I’ve ever seen. Can’t take my eyes off it though.

FYI, I found out what happened in the McNeese State/Houston Baptist game that sent it to a fourth OT.  I was watching the game log and saw McNeese hit a three pointer to go up 132-131 with 0.6 seconds left, but then Houston Baptist hit a free throw.

Turns out after the McNeese kid hit a three, a player on a McNeese State bench who wasn't even in uniform ran out on to the court all the way to the middle to congratulate the kid who hit the shot....except there was still 0.6 seconds left.  McNeese bench hit with a tech, Houston Baptist hit the free throw and then won in the fourth OT.

I wonder what his buyout is...that man's agent should win a lifetime achievement award.
