MWC doing its thing.   Wyoming was down 11 with 1:11 to go and forced OT and won against Colorado St

Had the Virginia Tech-Georgia Tech game on for a second when I heard the announcer yell, "THAT'S THREE STRAIGHT 3s FOR THE HOKIES!" 

Wait. What? ... You mean some baskets are worth 3 points?

That's news to me!

You must look away from the TV when the other team has the ball, lol.

Arkansas about to drop to 1-6 in conference

Indiana St wins in OT.

Dane Fife was the analyst on the Minnesota/ Penn State game tonight.  Imo, he did an okay job.  Maybe a little too subdued.

Northwestern up 35 over Ohio St

He might be done.  Ohio State hasn’t been happy for a bit.  
 

Ohio State

Michigan

Louisville

UCLA 

 

all likely to be filling head coaching positions.

It’s kind of crazy that when we hired Archie the three hottest young coaches were Archie, Holtman  and Mack. It’s really challenging to figure out if mid-major coaches will be big P5 winners

Bears wins again. Ole Miss 17-3 and just won at Texas AM.  
 

We’ve got another 3-4 years of mediocre crap coming up even when/if May takesover. 
 

Doomed lol

It is. But in classic IU fashion we got the worst coach of the bunch—by far.

Washington might be as well.  Mike Hopkins has the Huskies headed toward another lower division Pac 12 finish and is 64-78 in the last five years with no NCAA or NIT appearances.  Would have one year left on his contract and the buyout would be about $3 million.

Rumors surrounding the situation.

Basically, Jay Bilas had reported a few days ago that the Arkansas program had considered Davis AWOL after he no showed a practice and after the situation, the team considered him to no longer be with the team.

Second tweet is from Jack Pilgrim, probably the leading Kentucky basketball talking head, saying that Davis was kicked off the Arkansas team minutes before the Razorbacks played Kentucky today.

My guess is that Davis isn't happy with his situation/role at Arkansas (and truth be told, he's has a very bad season) and has been vocal about it and Musselman probably had enough.

The Trees struggled against the stripes. The box score won't reflect it, but go back and watch the game. Moving screens that Bradley set that weren't called.  Puah offs. Over the backs. ISU did what they needed to. Dropped 3's when they were needed. Rebounded when it was needed.  Good win for the Trees.  1st in the MVC alone.  LFG!

Interesting cause at one point there was talk he may come to iu last spring.

I think the reason it is so challenging is because it's hard to tell if they are winning because they are a great X and O's coach or are they simply out recruiting the rest of their league?
