2015 ncaa

good win by nd, they look p solid

That was so much fun. I really love Jerian Grant. He is so confident this year. And I'm always happy to see Jackson do well since we went to the same high school, where he played ball with my cousin.

also good to see the pavilion get rowdy since it was a bit quiet when I was there during the students' winter break.

starting to feel like this 'beating duke' high will never end. it's dangerous because I didn't actually do anything productive or good in my own life.

naturally notre dame drops its next game

duke's final 15 offensive possessions against virginia: 14 baskets, 34 points

Gotta love college bball. Pitt hit their free throws where duke did not.

lol syracuse

'our team isn't that great this year, so we're gonna voluntarily skip the postseason'

oh man. giving up the NIT. how noble.

is it just because i'm out of college and uconn is mediocre or is college basketball less popular now than it's ever been?

partly you, partly the conference reshuffling i'll guess

obviously by "ever been" you mean "your lifetime". It has slipped a bit compared to the last 5 years. But I don't think it's less popular than it was more than 5 years ago.

^ source: googling "march madness tv ratings"

the 30 for 30 about the Big East is very good, and I'd imagine the end of the true Big East is indicative of something. I guess that's probably just that college football has grown at a larger clip than college basketball.

March Madness is still my favorite sport event of the year

College hoops is the pits now! Can't stomach a full game. Can only watch like the last 5 minutes of a game anymore and even then I need it recorded to ffwd the inevitable foul/ft fest. March madness is still amazing especially the first weekend cos you can jump from close game to close game and you don't have to watch full stretches.

The shot clock is ridiculous.

shot clock will be reduced next year

What's the proposed time?

30, I think

Hm maybe that'll help but still only halfway there. Best thing about college hoops to me is that a full court press actually often works.

sooo duke/nd o_0

fg 14-18 77.8
3p 7-8 87.5

;_;

:-o

cool day of games, itd be sweet if uf had a prayer of beaking uk but prob no

It'd be sweet if uk played in a different conference

i'm by no means an nba stan, but i'm not sure that watching top-10 college teams struggle to get into the 50s is ideal

crazy vcu/richmond game

joe linardi is def rocking a hairpiece right

guess this 'cuse zone is effective

smdh

shorten the shot clock? maybe lengthen the shot clock and have every team run 'cuse zone. 50 shades of grey crossover market.

well, they did give up 73 two days ago

yeah, it's like the knuckle ball or something

there's a jim boeheim looking dude at my gym that's always yelling at the employees and doing curls while looking at himself in the mirror. can't stand this dude.

having a hard time picturing that tbh

it is understandably difficult to picture. perhaps I can grab a picture next time.

whats that then, abt 150 of boeheims wins vacated?

tar heels must be scared

boeheim vacates 135, i'm told

carmello anthony to destroy 135 hats, i'm told

weird season for uconn, theyve def improved but i think their dfense is not good enough to run 3/4 games in this acc tourney…v tough loss 2 memphis where backup dude named BURRELL has the game of his life, and uconn shot terribly; i think we'd get the 5 seed if mem loses vs cincy & if we can win @ temple

acc tourney

bite yr tongue

then the path is friday afternoon beat temple (only loss this season in hfd was to temple v end of ot down 2pts, hamilton was fouled shooting a 3 and missed all 3 shots) > sat morning in hartford there is a st patties day parade, whole city get trashed and then afternoon game vs. prob smu is rowdy & packed & they win > then sunday afternoon state is too hungover to show up & support them and they go out to a 30 pt effort by houston's Jherrod Stiggers :|

Amazing due to its enormous improbability. Whatever drove Tiger's run to greatness, it seems totally broken and scattered to the winds now. He's a lost soul.

I mostly agree with Joe Posnanski's theory on the matter, which is....he turned 35. not a lot of golfers having consistent success after that age. The fall from "he will definitely break Jack Nicklaus's record" to "he will probably never win another major again" is pretty crazy though

Someone on twitter said Grayson Allen kinda looks like Joffrey and that's something I can't shake
