[You Play to Win the Game]

I feel like even most pro teams these days would at least suspend a guy or put them on temp leave after such bombshell news.

And yeah 2035 that commentator totally white washing it that game against South Carolina was just ridiculous. Terrible message to send.

The player, the skill and talent, just phenomenal. Will be a great pro.

There are some...things going on inside Alabama's basketball program. Darius Miles was dismissed from the team after killing a woman outside a strip mall last month, and now it comes out that Brandon Miller brought the gun that was used in the shooting. Nate Oats says that Miller was just in the "wrong place at the wrong time" and isn't at any risk of being dismissed from the team.

 

It's always been known that the way Oats runs his program is a little shady, but this could really derail things.

 

I genuinely don't keep up with scuttlebutt around programs outside murder allegations, what does Oats do that is shady?

 

I guess I'm glad right now that the Terps couldn't outbid Alabama for his services.

Really looking forward to tonight's matchup in the Big 12 between Baylor and Oklahoma State. Like many matchups we've seen over recent weeks, Oklahoma State could be playing for an NCAA Tournament bid tonight, especially considering they are in the "Last 4 In" graphic from just about every bracketologist you see and are fresh off a tough home loss to Kansas State on saturday. Baylor will be without star Freshman Guard Keyontae George as well, which makes this a massive opportunity, however it will not be easy.

Good stuff. Was talking with 2035 last night - he’s been trailing the KenPom rankings as it pertains to the correlations to final four teams. Creighton was one of the four teams this year that fit the historical criteria of leading indicators.

Apparently the last 30’ish Final Four Champs have entered the tournament with a top 37 offense and top 40 defense. In addition to Creighton mentioned above, UCLA, Indiana and Maryland for the criteria (as of Sunday afternoon).

Wake hits a shot at the buzzer (well, close enough) and sends Boeheim and 'Cuse packing.

 

Wondering if that is the last game Old Grumpy Jim will coach.

 

It's probably time to move on.

In unsurprising news Herm hit that Wake bet. He knows Im jealous of how often he hits on games that could go either way in the final seconds/minutes. 😑

In his post-game presser, it sounded like Boeheim announced his retirement without announcing his retirement.

[BSLChrisStoner]

Boeheim is so unlikable.

Sorry for taking a while to respond. Was polishing that horseshoe. Wake wasn’t going to lose to that crap team back to back games. Even if they are also a crap team. Love making a few $$ fading Syracuse.

Anyone want to take a guess as to where the ACC tournament is being held this year?

Is that a trick question?

Sounds like it's official now. Adrian Autry is the new head coach. Also sounds more like this was Syracuse pushing him out versus Boeheim retiring.
