From twitter Duke: 82, UofL: 56 The bad news, Card fans, is that this game won't be vacated. The good news, however, is that you only lost one game today instead of 123 games like yesterday. [emoji

After OSU got smoked by Penn State last night, #iubb now has the number 1 adjusted defensive efficiency in Big Ten play. #iubb was LAST in the conference in Adj. Def. Eff. a year ago. @AssemblyCal

Just wanted to say before we start the new season it’s always a pleasure talking hoops with almost all the posters on this board. Not sure how many years it’s been but this board is a part of my col

Penn st could be the surprise of the B1G this year like Nebraska was a couple years ago. We will know more after tonight’s game against Texas A&M. Since Pitt was so bad it’s hard to take away from their 31 point win

Kevin Stallings was such a ridiculously bad hire for Pitt.

What a game. Waters has taken over this game. LSU up 2 with a min to go

That was a fun game to watch. That Waters steal and over the head pass for a reverse dunk by Epps (?) was sweet.

Michigan has talent and a system that can win. I don't think they have a go to scorer. Muhammad-Ali Abdur-Rahkman is good but I don't think he can takeover a game.

They're in the second tier of teams with Northwestern, Wisconsin, Maryland, and maybe Penn State.

Tomorrow is usually the time where I find out what channel Axis Tv is since most battle for Atlantis games are usually shown on it. Once it became popular ESPN started showing the day games. Evidently ESPN bought the rights to all of it but are only showing the late games and consolation games on espn3. So if you want to watch NC State/Arizona or Smu/Northern Iowa tomorrow you will have to stream it. Disappointing

I don’t see Iowa, Illinois, Ohio State, Rutgers, or Nebraska finishing ahead of us this year. I think it will be us fighting with Michigan, Maryland, Penn State, Wisconsin,  and Northwestern for the mid pack finish. Michigan State, Minnesota, and Purdue are ahead of everyone.

More on the Michael Porter surgery.

University of Missouri freshman forward and likely top-five pick in the 2018 NBA Draft, Michael Porter Jr. will likely miss the remainder of the 2017-18 season after he undergoes surgery on Tuesday in Dallas, Texas, the school announced Tuesday in a press release.

“I really appreciate the support of my family and the Mizzou Men’s Basketball program as I begin this process,” said Porter Tuesday. “I’m thankful for all the kind words and messages I’ve received from fans. Those mean a lot to me. I cannot wait to be completely healthy and playing the game I love, once again.”

The procedure, a microdiscectomy of the L3 and L4 spinal discs, has a projected recovery time of three-four months and will likely cause him to miss the remainder of the season. Porter is expected to make a complete recovery.

“Our top priority as a program is the well-being of our student-athletes, so Michael beginning this process to be 100 percent healthy is important to all of us,” said Missouri head coach Cuonzo Martin. “Our focus has been on Michael’s well-being, just like every other player in our locker room. We will continue to work every day to build Mizzou Basketball into a program to be proud of. We’re preparing now for a trip that is a tremendous opportunity. I’m excited to get after it in Orlando.”

Before the announcement, Porter had missed Missouri’s last three games with a back injury. As a recruit, Porter was ranked as the No. 2 player in the Class of 2017 per 247Sports and is projected to likely be a top-five pick in the 2018 NBA Draft.

Despite the speculation that Porter will go “One-and-Done”, he told reporters in October at SEC Media Day that he may stay multiple years.

“He will come back but it’s 50-50 as to the level of his return whether he’ll be the same as he was pre-injury,” New York Chiropractor, Dr. Craig Fishel told Adam Zagoria on Tuesday. “That is most likely not going to happen, probably 90% of himself and subject to re-injury and residual problems ongoing.”

Huge blow to Mizzou and sucks for Porter Jr and for college basketball. He is a dynamic, fun player to watch. Hope he comes back the same. He should still be a top 3 pick in the NBA draft if all goes well so I doubt we see him playing in college again.

Sucks for the kid but as far as I'm concerned about Mizzou, I feel karma setting in. They sold their souls and any morals they had to get Porter JR and SR. They still get younger brother and a coach who is willing to play the game. So who knows maybe they still win but the whole thing just rubs me wrong.

So does Cuonzo bolt(again)? With his history, I could see him voluntarily leaving in his 1st season.
