You need to read the reply’s on this. Advice to HC’s in rebuilds: Don’t play Bellarmine. They have a great coach, a system that will make you look bad and they’re cohesive as hell. 

And they do it with a lot of Indiana kids.

Looks like we’re going to avoid complete s**tshow weather conditions, which is a shame. 

The real question is does Few have a few too many after the Gonzaga win and try to take the USS Lincoln for a spin around the harbor?

Damn. Was afraid of that. He was the best player at the Forum event last year. Made everything and had the demeanor of a killer.

Dayton will not lose a game in these. My word.

I am glad to see Damezi on the floor for Detroit

Is anyone else aggravated about how there are no big time matchups for the entire first week of the CBB season? It just does nothing to generate excitement for the sport compared to the hype that the first week of CFB gets with all the great games. 
 

The season should start off with some huge event with marquee teams like the old great Alaskan shootout or NIT Tournament, not all these diabetes inducing cupcake matchups. Seriously is there a reason for such a wimpy start?

Detroit Mercy now up 62-60, Demezi with 11 (4-8 FGs, 3-7 treys), 4 boards and a steal, good to see him playing well (but fouled out)

Btw he's listed at 230 lbs....

We now live in a world where coaches are constantly looking over their shoulders, afraid that any little screwup may cost them their job. Starting the season off with a loss is a disaster at a lot of places, and coaches are scared to death their teams won't be ready for a tough opponent and will look awful. Gotta beat up on a team or two early and calm everyone's nerves a bit. I don't like it, but it's the world of college athletics that big money and mega-contracts have brought us.

Detroit up 1.   Boston college on the line with 1:47 to go.   Sloppy on both sides the last 5 min

Boston college gets an offensive rebound and hits a 3 to go up 2 with 14 sec to go.   Detroit ball

Jesus, charges are stupid.

I can't figure out what's more interesting -- that New Hampshire played an entirely new roster; or that the basketball has no more sh*t in it. 

Didn’t realize the rest of the tweet had that in there so I better delete the post

Add barstoolsports tv to the list of ways I’ve watched college basketball.   UAB/Toledo is playing in the barstool sports invitational.   Miss st/Akron to follow
