Questions – lots of questions about college basketball – and for every question – an answer! Should Mike Krzyzewski and John Calipari leave Duke and UK, change their recruiting priorities, or keep thrashing with the best talent available? People tend to believe what they last saw, so basketball fans are losing their minds over Kentucky […]
I’ve always been a little bit fascinated with Purdue wing Ryan Cline. When he played basketball at Carmel High School, he dominated the ball late in games that Carmel led – which was almost all of them. Teams were forced to foul him, and Cline would sprint to the foul line, wait for everyone else […]
Devonte Green is an IU basketball player who some love, and others loathe, but no one is indifferent Some believe Green will play in the NBA, and others believe he shouldn’t come back to Indiana. He hits shots, and he turns the ball over. He gets steals, but allows a clear path to the bucket. […]
Indiana lost to Wichita State tonight, and its season went poof – if playing in the NIT counts as an actual continuation. Six wins against quad one opponents showed the Hoosiers to be capable of beating excellent teams, and 12 losses in 13 games showed they were also flawed in the extreme. Whether the losses came […]
Tim Miles is out at Nebraska. Don’t feel sorry for him, because he’s not feeling sorry for himself. Like he said on a podcast a couple of weeks ago, “”If they fire me, they’re still going to pay me. I’m still a millionaire, so I’ve got that going for me.” That’s a great outlook. Universities […]
UC Irvine’s basketball coach Russell Turner tried to get in the head of Oregon player Louis King by calling him “Queen”, and social media explodes. Turner’s choice of mockery wasn’t clever, but it didn’t effect King’s play either. In fact, King scored 16 points, and hit 4-of-7 from beyond the arc in Oregon’s 73-54 win. Coaches have heckled […]
Michael Avenatti is not a good guy. When porn stars turn on you, it’s time to re-evaluate priorities He showed up uninvited in my living room for the first time as he represented porn star Stormy Daniels in her lawsuit against Donald Trump. That suit went nowhere, as did Avenati’s 2020 presidential bid. Daniels fired […]
Tom Izzo screamed at freshman Aaron Henry during yesterday’s win against Bradley, and those who don’t get it are putting Izzo on blast. Henry is a 19-year-old kid who wasn’t getting back on defense with enough energy, and Izzo let him know in no uncertain terms, that is not acceptable. ESPN.com’s headline recounting the incident reads, […]
Butler lost to Nebraska last night in the opening round of a tournament the Bulldogs never wanted to play in. Expectations are higher than that at Hinkle Fieldhouse. Butler is one of just a few teams to play in and win at least one game during the past four NCAA Tournaments, so a trip to […]
Romeo Langford wants to compete at basketball. He wants to win. He wants to improve. Somehow, Indiana fans have come to the conclusion he’s counting the days until the NBA Draft, and that wealth is his only priority as his time at IU draws to a close. They are crapping on Romeo with enthusiasm. Its has […]
