Do remember that after all it is Christmas Eve and tomorrow is Christmas Day and so tonight and tomorrow we put down the pitch forks, put aside our differences, and be with the ones we want to be with and know that after these two days this isn't going anywhere.

With all due respect, this Grayson Allen thing isn't that serious.

The kid is a brat. He's young. He has life by the horns. He let his competitive nature get the best of him at least 3 times. His coach is a pompous enabler that the NCAA has helped create.

Grayson needs to mature by light years and maybe this public scrutiny will advance that.

It should by the way.

But, the reality is, his slap on the wrist suspension isn't that big of deal and shouldn't affect your day to day.

Merry Christmas!

 We can't help ourselves, we see a line we want to cross it. Maybe it's the thrill of trading the familiar for the unfamiliar, a sort of personal dare, only problem is, once you have crossed it's almost impossible to go back. But if you do manage to make it back across that line, you find safety in numbers.

Those top 100 "diamonds in the rough."

[Class of '66 Old Fart]

Unreal stat:  Virginia has 10 players averaging 9.5 minutes or more and six of those players have committed 10 turnovers or less this season.

Glad we didn't recruit those same kids; they'd pull our TO average down.   LOL

Be an interesting study to interpret.

Obviously this doesn't account for the entire difference, but completely different offensive system. Crean's system almost guarantees you will produce turnovers at a higher rate.
