He talked the other day about not ending the game with timeouts and if you notice, the second that things start to go ill, he calls timeout with this team and regroups, doesn't pull the "I'll let them play out of it"

You dont really believe this do you? Who has he "put" in the NBA? Derrick Rose and Tyreke Evans? They would have not even bothered with college had the age 19 rule not been in effect. Every school he leaves coincidentally has a huge amount of violations from the time period for which he coached. Naturally he knows or sees nothing.

Marcus Camby, CDR, Dorsey is in the NBA but doesn't play. Dozier plays in Greece. I am not sure how many made it besides Camby from the UMass days

Doubt it, think it'll be similar to the Wake spread. Cornell has looked amazing.

That was really really bad. I know Turgeon's teams from when he was at Wichita State and they were conditioned, A&M looked tired. And how they let that tool Kramer dribble drive for the winning score is shocking.

The defense and the lack of heart that team showed was appalling. Their guard play was extremely overrated. How they could throw it into the post with 17 seconds left and a 5 second differential is beyond rational thought especially considering the pace of the game.

They were basically playing 4 on 5 on the offense side of the ball. It was driving me nuts there were bounce passing into the post only to get it picked off, that had to happen 5-6 times. Harris didn't even attempt to shoot.

I will say that while the refs were letting them play all tourney, Davis got mugged about three times and they were no-calls. There guards cost them this game, plain and simple.

I just went back and looked at their schedule. 4 losses and 2 of them are to Syracuse and Kansas. Man did they have a cheering section today in Jacksonville! Not too mention Wisconsin was pitiful.

Really interesting stuff here.







No it's not.

Not reading it anymore as it bores and sedates.

Doesn't someone remind someone of someone?
