Troy could be way better than Sam dekker next year if he develops a jumper. Our next years team with experience could be better than both duke and wiscy were this year!

Except we do not compare at all defensively. When Duke had Okafer out with fouls and got down they responded by amping up their D. Wisconsin has always been very good on D.

We may have better offense but this needs to be the summer we spend getting much better on D

What was up with Dekker? Did I miss something? Dude looked like he was in la la land most of the night.

He took an elbow in the jaw going for a board in the first half. He didn't look right after that.

Yeah I was. Lot of Duke fans but I say 70 percent UW

I was surprised a couple years ago in Indy for Sweet 16 game against MSU about their turnout. I thought Oregon had a better turnout than Duke. MSU and Louisville was prolly 80% of that crowd.

How come Duke only has eight scholly players?

Had Semi transfer and rasheed got booted

I was too. Was there both games and the louisville game was like 90-10 card fans

[BlueDevil 8,655]

what about the other three spots?

Just weren't filled. Only dressed 10 guys the rest of the season that includes the walkons.

Lol, that would take a gigantic leap. Like astronomical. Duke was extremely talented and athletic. Wisconsin was extremely talented.

His shots from the get-go looked like knuckle balls.  You could tell they weren't coming off right.

 

In general, that wasn't the same team we saw on Saturday.

I re-watched the second half of that game...Coack K is awful.  He worked the refs like non other; I despise that man.  Three championships have been gifted to Duke; this being one of the most egregious.  I can't believe I'm saying this, but Calipari is less of a scumbag than Coach K.  

 

Do you remember how many calls RMK used to get us? Working the refs is part of a coach's job. When you feel your team isn't getting a fair shake, you let the refs know about it until it changes. Our coach's solution is to pace, clap and drink Diet Coke.

I think some of you guys are really jumping the gun about how good we'll be next year... IU will be very good, but in no way do I see us being a contender.

If only I chose duke

And this is why I should be the AD

[Whoozhers 3,647]

IU's "one shining moment" highlight was Yogi agonizing laying on his back underneath the bucket. Seems to me there's quite a bit of irony in that image and our season.
Oh well.... Looking forward to a much brighter 15/16!!

Duke logo notwithstanding, it was neat that an IndyCar led the escort to the airport.

Of course UCONN wins another title for women's basketball.

pretty remarkable!

Geno is the Coach K to women's basketball.

Geno is the Coach K to women's basketball.

Nah. Geno is the John Wooden. Coach K doesn't even come close to their levels of dominance.

Duke and Wisky, that game was all about what NCAA basketball ought to be about.
