TCU is destroying Kansas right now in their own building.   Impressive stuff.   Can they finish.    TCU up 16 with 7:22 to go 

Kansas gave up with 6 to go.  No press?  No defensive pressure?  Taking too much time on offense?  Pitiful.  Hard to believe it is the same team that beat us.

Young coaches would do well to look up Pete’s drills on YouTube. Dude was relentless in working on his craft.

If it doesn't create a YouTube highlight, players just don't care. Just work on your step back 3.

Meh…we rolled over for them. I would rather not think about that game.   
 

Franklin having a good half for UVA.

The sky is falling according to Kansas fans.

Kansas has not been looking like a #1 seed since conference play began.

OSU blew out Iowa, but judging by the reactions, they may have lost their C Zed Key for the rest of the season

B1G players likely going to NBA early after this year

OSU. Sensabaugh.
Mich. Howard
Iowa. Murray

My Eagles are up 16 against a really SIUE (projected AQ) team right now. Currently shooting 57% behind the arc

[Hoosierfan1901]

USI survives a late half push from SIUE, to beat them 82-72

There is a 6-way tie for 1st place in the OVC

Clemson just nailed a 3 to take a 1 pt lead with 9 sec to go.   Virginia Tech had basically been ahead the whole second half.

Clemson wins it.  They are having a great season

13 seasons for Brownell and they’re atop the ACC. There were some pretty rough seasons in there, too. But Clemson isn’t really great at basketball. You don’t see a school stick with a coach like that anymore.

393 points away. At this point, just go for it. Team is 7-12... Teammates should just feed him like crazy. 12 games left, including the conference tourney game. Needs to average 33 a game. 

No, just no. If "you" are a student of the craft, knowing that "you" will never ever be able to achieve what Pistol Pete did, "you" simply take your EXTREMELY well deserved 2nd place and move on. Antoine has a very well deserved spot in history, he know's not to piss on those in his bracket, better than him.

FAU/UTEP about to tip off.   Going to be a good road test for the Owls

While there were some lean years, he's also took them to the tournament a few times -- including a Sweet 16 run. Not bad for a school that doesn't give any resources to basketball.

Brad is from Evansville, and has had success at low major schools. He's a good coach that could have more success at a school that wanted to foster a better basketball culture.

Kennesaw St/FGCU tied up with 1:50 to go.   This has been a really good game.

I know who he is. He’s done a decent job there. Purnell sort of turned them around. It’s an interesting situation where maybe he could’ve left or maybe they could’ve fired him during the six years they missed the tourney, but for whatever reason they seem to like each other and mutually realize they could be worse off by parting ways. That doesn’t happen too often anymore .

For the same reason that I’ve always given Crean credit for taking the IU job when guys like Bennett wanted no part of it, I’ve always respected Brownell for just openly lobbying for it in ‘09. Remember thinking the Wright St guy, a coach with no reputation or reach, wanting that train wreck took stones.
