    Talked about it last weekend but Nowell hit a wall at the end of the Big 12 season. Teams had seen him.These teams have not. He's the epitome of a great distributor and sees the court so well. Such a fun player to watch.

    I'd forgotten that Taing had 10 new players on his team. In his first HC job. What an incredible job he's done. Where were they? The Linq?

    Hauser is a confident player right now. Sparty needs to run thru him.

    I'm thinking the money / advertising guys at the networks have analyzed this to the nth degree. Including the likelihood that one of the overlapping games isn't competitive and you need the other game for people to tune in. That's probably big. Wouldn't be a bad deal being on the west coast with a regional semi tipping at noon on a Thursday, and Friday.

    FAU is up against it. Hasn't played a Power 5 team in over 4 months. And it's so 3-point centric and Tennessee defends that line better than anyone in the country. FAU is also very small. The subtraction of Ziegler has made Tennessee even taller.

    That means you tip the first game around 3P Eastern on Thursday and Friday. CBS and Turner didn't pay $20 billion for the rights to go down that path. The first game tips for today and tomorrow moved up 40 minutes over last year to provide a little more cushion with things.

    Wooga Poplar very iffy to play tomorrow for Miami. DD scorer. Back injury vs IU. Whether he plays or not, Wooga's already made the all-name team for the tournament.

    And this is why the NIL is a great thing. Keeps these good college players around longer who know the NBA will be tough. It also should spread the talent out over time. Although there is much more parody in college basketball than football and it isn't even close. Bacot looks to be doing the same.

    Terry was in once he got to the 2nd weekend. He was likely in once he won the Big 12 tournament. Especially after destroying Kansas for the 2nd time. Del Conte said he was going to wait until the end of the season to name a coach. He's keeping to his word. Then he'll name Terry. Idiots like Bohls and Vitale are just throwing shit out there for that sake only. They'd be best served by just stepping aside and revisit what Del Conte has said from the get-go.

    Interesting hearing Timme this week on his decision to come back. Not about any allegiance to Gonzaga, etc. Simple math - more money on the NIL front than the NBA. There's always going to be these guys in college who are stars at that level but whose game won't necessarily translate much, or at all, to the next level. NIL makes it an easy decision for them. Great college player. I'll still take Jaquez tonight. I don't bet against him.

    Yeah, chills.

    Looks good:

    You're right about that. I did enjoy seeing the video of the hot Louisville player, in pigtails no less.

    I really like what I saw from Michigan State yesterday. Sometimes it's fine to get knocked out early in a conference tourney. (See Texas '03 in the run to New Orleans.) Sparty has that mix of blue collar, tough guys around the paint along with some nice talent on the perimeter and Hauser seems to love to take, and make, big shots. Izzo is Izzo. Nowell seemed to hit a wall at the end of the conference season but now he's playing teams that have not seen him and he's capable of carving up any defense, over and over. This will be a fun game.

    Sasser looked fine Saturday. Moving around fine and shot it well beyond the arc (6 for 9). Would have played more than 31 minutes had it not been for foul trouble. Sheed's knee may be a bigger issue than Sasser's groin. I think Houston wins by 6 - 8 points but we'll see.

    - CBS moved early tips on Thursday and Friday up 40 +/- minutes. Those two games have always started just after 6:00 central. - Sampson won’t be able to exact any revenge on and molest IU. Miami gets it instead. - Sparty and K-State is going to be outstanding; no need to worry about breathing exercises during timeouts from either coach. #laughatshaka - Barnes has to beat FAU. No option, It's FAU, a basketball juggernaut. Tenny will try and make this another football game. - Creighton will dispose of Princeton. The latter shoots wide open 3s really well and hustles alot but so do teams at the Y. - Zags and UCLA will be fun. Both play their conference tourneys in Vegas so they’re comfortable in the setting. Bruins dodged another injury situation, sounds like Singleton will play. Clark’s still done and that could be its undoing. But you never bet against Jacquez and Campbell. Timme, either, I guess after last night’s performance.

    You have some ifs and let's put them aside, especially the one about Baylor being better when George doesn't play. Your original post said that George might lose two spots in the draft due to the tourney. That's where you should take a step back and re-assess. Scouts are examining every data point In making a lottery pick, including tournament play but that's a very small piece of it. So, so much more goes into it. The idea that George may drop two spots in the draft, a huge drop, because of 4 hours this weekend is worthy of a good night's sleep and re-thinking that assertion. I'm not a fan of Baylor. More so, just a fan of objectivity.

    Two spots because he and his team had an off night, at altitude? Guessing you're not looking to be an NBA GM any time soon.
  19. Wally Pryor
    Not really. Talents supercedes things like this. And he's loaded with talent.
  20. Wally Pryor
    Precisely. It's stupid. Almost as stupid as emphasizing breathing exercises during a crucial moment of a game.
  21. Wally Pryor
    He's just as uninformed as Barkley. They cover the NBA all season and are supposed to know college basketball with a moments notice. Stupid.
  22. Wally Pryor
    Painter should give back a 1/4 of his salary for that abortion against a team that would struggle in a game at the Y. Atrocious.

    It's a beating listening to Barkley talk college basketball. Last time I tuned in to him w/ detail he said A/M was too athletic for Penn State and would win by DD. Smart basketball mind, but touches CBB 3 days before the tournament starts. Dumb.

    The yellows are infinitely better than these prison unis.
