Duke starting to click?

I'm liking them making it to the final.

I think their run ends tomorrow.  I really like Florida St.   I think Florida St could make a run next week and I think they have the size and athletes that could give the Zags a game if they matched up

IDK. I really like FSU, but think the teams are going in different directions. FSU has lost their last 2 against decent teams (ND and UNC). 

And the fact they'll be playing in NC....

1 year ago today I started the Colorado/Washington St game at this time which ended up being the last full game I watched last season.  That means the next set of games that start tomorrow it will have been 2 years since I’ve gotten to experience the Thursday-Sunday games of championship week.   I put these next 4 days up there with the first week of the ncaa tournament as the best 2 weeks   in college basketball.    Enjoy the games these next couple weeks hoops junkies.

And yet another incredibly unbelievable bad call.  This one against UTEP.

So Coach K can blame COVID for missing the Big Dance and it's not a reflection on the caliber of this year's Duke team?

Or, the committee gives them the Ohio St treatment, says they shouldn’t be penalized for missing games, and puts them in, citing the “roll” they were on in the ACC tournament. I’ll believe Duke’s not in when they’re not in, not a second before.

Indiana State may have to pause basketball for a year.  Former Cloverdale star and ISU junior Cooper Neese has entered the transfer portal. He’s sixth Sycamore this week to enter transfer portal

A new coach will be able to find 6 new players easily.

 

Will they be good players on and off the court? Different story.

 

JUCO time!

And just because players enter the transfer portal doesn't mean they'll actually transfer to another school.  Smart on their part to keep their options open.   I mean, after ISU announces Brad Stevens as its new coach, they'll all decide to stick around Terre Haute.   lol

I'd take the Indiana State and return them to glory.
