Collins found the on switch for that kid. Looks like a totally different player.

He’s been great thus far. Felt it was a matter of time.

Ugh. Pitt lost at home to Quinnipiac by 8. So Pitt now has a 20 pt loss at West Virginia , a 10 point neutral court loss to UCF and an 8 point buy game loss to a MAAC school and has Ohio State and Texas A&M up next. In the last 10 years Jeff Capel has made the Tournament once. I’m guessing he’s dodged his last bullet.

Capel is still there?!!?

Oh no.

Time For the Player Haters Ball

[Uspshoosier]

Feast week is here with games starting at 11 and the last tipping off at midnight.   My 3rd favorite week on the college basketball schedule.   Players Era tourney has taken over as the best MTE during this week.  Each of teams gets 1 mil for participating and then the winner will get 2 mil on top of that while 2,3 and 4th will get extra.   the fields for Maui and battle for Atlantis because of this.  Hopefully this won’t eliminate those tourneys but hard for teams to turn down 1 mil nil money just to participate.   Hopefully IU gets in that tourney moving forward.   Next year they are adding more teams

Read last week that Maui may be on death watch because of the Players Era event.  The $$ for playing in Vegas far outweigh travel expenses, etc., to travel to Hawaii.  And in the new era of pay for play, saving a buck or two is a big deal.

The Fighting Archies of Rhode Island (4-1) are up 15-11 over Towson (3-2)

Towson rallies to lead 25-21 at the half. Archie looked mad (or thrilled? or bored? Who can tell?)

Archie honestly has almost everything to be a great coach. The full spectrum of human emotions is a big thing to be missing though.

Just curious, what are the other things he has? Because he obviously doesn't run an offense that works, a defense that works, or have teams that can shoot threes or free throws. Seems he's missing a lot more than basic human emotions. 

 

Also, he loves his cupcakes. Another year with a non-con SOS in the 300's.

I think a lot of those issues are the result of his inability to build human connection.

In addition, his player evaluation and development skills are lacking.
