63-33 with 5 mins left. And the color guy positing that UVA’s defense has been a bigger problem than their offense. Sorry, no, if you’ve scored 33 points in 35 mins the offense is the problem. 

Color guy was Cory Alexander, former UVA guy. Of course there's gonna be a little gas lighting.

Houston fouled Iowa St at least 4 times on that possession and didn’t get called for any of them.  lol

Norfolk St/NC Central game pretty good ending going down. NCC was down 7 about 90 seconds ago and just hit a 3 to tie with 1:00 to go

The officiating has been B1G level bad in this game

Night in, night out the Big 12 is a more physical league than the Big Ten. It’s better too.

I still can’t believe we were able to beat out Incarnate Word for Priller. Quite a coup.

Take it for what it's worth and if true more likely a move to get a raise from current employer.

Coach Rumors says Danny Hurley's agent is talking to O$U.

Interesting read on G-League Ignite. NIL has made it pretty irrelevant and it certainly sounds like the NBA could pull the plug.

What part of Lake County?

FWIW, I think IUN started playing basketball 15-20 years ago.  Most of the players on their team come from the Chicago public leagues.  

I'm from Hobart. Grew up there, but haven't lived there since early '90s. Would visit once or twice every year until last year. After my mom died, we sold the house she and my dad had for 57 years -- so there's probably very little chance I'll be going back. 

When I was growing up there, Purdue Cal had basketball -- though I don't think it's called Purdue Cal anymore. I even went to a camp there one year. But IUN didn't have hoops.

UCONN vs Creighton tonight on FS1.  Could be a great game.  I would love for Creighton to win.  I'm tired of UCONN's success.  

[Uspshoosier 44,676]

Massive game in the MAC tonight Akron/Toledo.  Akron has 1 game lead over Toledo

You know you are 1 of the biggest of big dogs when you can go somewhere like Creighton and that home court advantage and a team that good and be a road favorite.

Rob Cassidy with coaches on the bubble.  Spoiler alert -- Woody ain't on his list.

I’ll have it on one of the sides, but sorely disappointed in the MAC after they got curb stomped in that Sun Belt cross over series
