Kinda ironic that they’re calling it earliest anything

Isn't this Chris Mack's 4th year at Louisville? I forget whether he's dealing with NCAA sanctions or anything, but this is surprising giving the promise he showed in his 2nd season there.

i was pretty damn high on him at Xavier, and would have been more than happy to have either he or Mick Cronin replace Shaka 3-4 years ago. i'm glad things worked out the way they did, but yeah, surprising that he isn't having more success.

[Underdog 28633]

Brown leading UNC by 3 early 2H.

My thoughts exactly. I was extremely impressed with him a couple years ago. I think Louisville rose to #1 or something around there and they got a recruit out of Rockwall, TX that I was hoping we'd get. He hasn't done much of anything there yet, but he was the long, skilled wing that our program has lacked for a long time. Of course flash forward a couple years, Beard gets here, and immediately gets those exact specs on not 1, but 2  wing recruits in back to back classes with Jaylon Tyson and Dilon Mitchell, so crisis averted.

Aggies beat Abilene Christian by one on a buzzer beating three in 2OT. lol

UNC hangs on, Princeton leading SCarolina by 8 late in 2H.

I had no idea Meth-stache Manek transferred to UNC

Sucks there’s no bill Walton on the mic

[shadow_operative2.0 15983]

Fuck, that Oregon court is a shock to the system. 

[Scraps 13561]

Gillespie gonna end up winning this game for Nova

Nyet!

[Sbbruin 21853]

This game is blow for blow.

So is Arcidiocano a little brother?

si.

[Sbbruin 21853]

What a game

[shadow_operative 15932]

what a shot to tie the game.

[shadow_operative 15932]

Jay Wright suddenly looks like somebody's grandpa. That dude has aged even more than Barnes and Mack did.

Gotta be careful with this fouling shit... 

[Sbbruin 21853]

Overtime

[shadow_operative 15932]

how did he not get off a better shot?

[shadow_operative 15932]

uh, ok:

 

[Sbbruin 21853]

Jaquez!

[ztejas 43449]

This is pretty much exactly how UCLA made the FF last year. 

[Sbbruin 21853]

Bruins gutted that out.  Big win.  Nova is legit.

[ztejas 43449]

CUT THE NETS DOWN!

Exactly.  Played harder than the other guy.

Eh. Some of that - some of it is just mentality and coaching. Pick your spots and stick with it. Don't worry about the scoreboard. I don't think a Jay Wright team ever doesn't play hard.

You get a little excited there, @Sbbruin?

Nice win for UCLA.  Was fighting the insides of my eyelids trying to stay up and watch this game, last I remember was Nova up 67-60 then woke up with it in OT.  

[DeadArmadillo 907]

I figure South Carolina will open up by the end of the season, if not sooner. Francisco will be lucky to make it through the season. That Final Four seems like it was decades ago

And described by a headline that made the 13 year old in me laugh

Yeah, by no means was I suggesting Nova didn’t play hard.  They kept coming and we’re very physical.  More like you say, don’t look at the scoreboard and just keep up relentless effort and see where you are at the end.  

[Scraps 13561]

Nova went full retard on the offensive end from the 5 min mark of reg til the end. Not sure what the hell they were doing. Deserved to take that L.

[Underdog 28633]

Didn’t even recognize Martin at first while watching a bit of USCe’s game vs Princeton. 

[cafe society 2871]

Did UCLA miss any shot - from the field or the line - in OT?  Between OT and the final three minutes of regulation I can't recall a missed anything.

[Underdog 28633]

Dartmouth up 19, 33-14 on Gtown late 1H.  On FS2.

It's been a fun game to watch.  

[Underdog 28633]

Hoyas have made a run to cut it down to 48-40 with just over 13 to play. 

[cafe society 2871]

All these threes, it's like watching a couple of battleships fire broadsides at each other.

You’re not lying, ball came down wet on a couple of those 3s by Dartmouth. 

[cafe society 2871]

This game is insanely streaky.

[Underdog 28633]

Big Green has had some questionable possessions of late, shot clock violation won’t help their cause. 

Last time I saw this much bombing was when the Germans attacked Pearl Harbor.  

Get you some, Big Green.

Absolutely.  I almost went there, but distance was an issue (mother health issues).  But I loved it up there.

[Underdog 28633]

We live near Albany, NY and drove over that way a few years ago as a day trip, really nice looking campus and town.  Of course I had to checkout their sports facilities. 

[cafe society 2871]

You really have to rack up the frequent flyer miles to support your 'Cats.

[Underdog 28633]

Thank God for cable/internet.  Usually just go see them whenever they’re in NYC, did fly out to Chicago to meet with my boy for the ChampionsClassic a few years ago, that was fun.

Do you ever attend the Albany games?  They've certainly had success in their conference over the years.

[Underdog 28633]

Have only been once for theirs and Siena’s games, will try and do both again this season.  Also trying to knock off Fordham(Rose Hill Gym) and The Palestra off the bucket list this season.
