Have they started  a Fire Tom Crean thread yet?

My way of measuring this is to see when he slows down his posts on Twitter.

Didn’t see the game tonight, but in the 3 games since he became eligible he’s averaging 12 pts and 4 boards. So he must be playing  more than barely and helping a bit.

 

CuJo with a 1-10 from the floor today.

Now at 32% FG % for the year, with more TOs than assists.

Same CuJo we had.

Iowa St up 9 on Kansas with 12 min left, ESPN2

Despite having the #23 recruiting class according to 247 sports, the 2016 class has been rather disappointing.

Gelon - never should have had a schollie. Typical Crean.

Davis - Unfortunate with the injury but has never been in the type of game shape to stay on the floor long enough to really contribute

CuJo - Really only remember his first game against KU other than that was hardly memorable 

Green - Still way too inconsistent. Good Devonte one day and then bad Devonte the next

McSwain - Improved a lot his senior year and really contributed but was pretty much a non-factor his junior year

Yep successive recruiting classes that pan out is such a key. Creans biggest issue

Will always wonder what could have been had Freddie been able to play 4-years under Archie.  Yeah, I know he would never have been an Archie recruit, but Freddie just seemed to be a guy that would absorb instruction like a sponge and go out and bust his butt for you.

Georgia must NOT have hit 18 three pointers

Not quite.  They were a paltry 1-18 and the one they did make came from a bench player who played 7 min.   lol

Do you think the refereeing was perhaps a little dubious?

Scott Hunt of the Marion Chronicle-Tribune:  Indiana Wesleyan 95,  Bethel College 92.   It’s excruciating to watch referees dominate a game but teams combined for 69 free throw attempts. 49 came in 2nd half alone.

Arkansas with a nice road win. Arkansas NET will move up even more. IU’s worst loss is a Quad 1.

I turn on the Duke-Clemson game for 5 seconds. Ears immediately start to bleed listening to Dukie V not being able to shut up or actually say anything intelligent

College basketball always delivers
South Florida runs a play to get a 3 to tie the game. Tulsa goes full length in 4.3 sec and runs a great set to get a corner 3 for the win

Don’t look now but New Mexico up 12 on Nevada at half in The Pit on The U.

Should be 15. Nevada is a second half team. Someone will get them on the road in conference.

Looks like that someone is New Mexico.

Evidently not a 2nd half team in this game. Basketball is funny. I watched New Mexico lose to New Mexico St by 40 and lose at home to North Texas and Penn. New Mexico up 24 with 4:30 to go

Saw a stat from the Tennessee/Georgia game: Georgia went 17-53 from the field and shot 1-20 from 3pt range. Yipes 

[Stuhoo]

Me and Jamiehoo watching the end of the Nevada New Mexico game.

The New Mexico player rebounds a missed shot with four seconds left. We replayed it slowly: he took 12 steps with no whistle while the celebration started. Got to be some kind of a no-call traveling record!

5%....will leave a mark. Also, I can't help but notice you didn't mention deflections. 

haha, yep, the article i read happened to leave out the deflection number...maybe it's written on a dry erase cue board somewhere.

DWade accepts that challenge.
