    Justin Taylor in the portal

    So you are saying that Judah who shot 28.2% shooter from 3 was judging and also righteously blackballing a 30.1% shooter from taking 3‘s this year? Career wise their first 2 years here, Judah was 29.1% from 3 and Taylor was 34%. Hmm I sure hope not.

    So Who Is The First Portaler?

    I agree with Bees, just saw his post.

    So Who Is The First Portaler?

    He may have made his own choice. It had to be a very tough year for him, if as Red stated how hard he worked, team dysfunction, dissension, fan criticism etc, he may have just decided enough was enough.

    Top 65 RPI P6 teams

    This year though very few teams were really consistent. So many teams with some good wins and conversely some bad losses. Heck only UConn, the regular season winners won their conference tournament unlike the Big 10, ACC, Pac 12, SEC, Big 12. There were so many teams that could win and then lose...

    Wonder if he will be making a big contribution towards NIL?

    I was there in the dome. Saw 14 seed Cleveland St beat 3 seed Bob Knight’s heavily favored Indiana squad too there.

    NC State

    Loading up early, losing, can equally hurt your ncaa bid and your conference ranking right from the start sadly. Now the preseason tournaments are adding NIL money to lure teams that could hurt them in the long run unless you are positive you can compete at a high level right out of the gate.

    We Need a Star

    I agree that there has to be balance because to have a “star” , a consistent reliable presence, others have to accept their roles to win and yet have the ability to step up when defenses key on stopping their “star” or he’s having a tough game. That’s what made our best teams great. I prefer...

    NC State

    Doesn’t seem to be much reward for challenging your team in tough preseason tournaments if losing hurts your NCAA chances so much almost 6 months later.

    NC State

    Despite my dislike for NCSt, I can’t say I’m disappointed to see Bacot get abused by Burns with those ridiculous chest bumps pushing his way to the basket like he does to others but can’t take it from good old DJ. Burns has great footwork and balance for a guy his size and his ability to exploit...

    Championship Week

    SHU beat then both early in the season at home but lost both their second games later in the season against UConn (by 30 points) and lost to Marquette (by 18 points) and then got demolished by St John’s by 19 in their first game in the Big East tournament. They have been, like us, a very...

    Watching SJU / UCONN Big East Tourney

    I think he actually over adjusted to the Steph Curry era of hoops. We had plenty of shooters - Buddy, Joe G, Swider even Jimmy Boeheim who shot .379 from 3 his only year here. What we lacked was a true point guard, a distributor, facilitator and an healthy consistent effective inside game. We...

    Watching SJU / UCONN Big East Tourney

    An addition is the huge effect of athletic director changes, direction and employees evolving from the Daryl Gross era that ended on June 2015, then the hiring of Mark Coyle and his quick subsequent resignation in May 2016 followed by the hiring of John Wildhack in July 2016. There had to be...

    Red's system

    I think part of the problem is we haven’t recruited players other than the point guard and some shooting guards who have very good ball handling or passing skills. Tough to have a good motion offense with players who aren’t decent passers or ball handlers when in motion and you invert positions...

    Does DJ Burns have a brother

    For being in college for 6 years, Burns isn’t that old - he’s 23 and won’t be 24 till October.

    Does DJ Burns have a brother

    Googled it - maybe they are wrong “According to the 247Sports.com industry composite for the Class of 2018, Burns was rated as a four-star recruit and the third-ranked prospect in the state of South Carolina … Two prospects ranked ahead of him were Zion Williamson and Ja Morant (the Top 2 picks...

    Does DJ Burns have a brother

    Burns was actually a 4 star recruit who redshirted after his commit to Tennessee. He transferred to Winthrop after his redshirt year, played there for 3 years before heading to NC St last year. Was shocked to read that he was the 3rd ranked player from South Carolina out of high school after #1...

    He’s a jerk for sure but a very good coach. He has to really stretch to find things to whine, cry and get outraged over. Seems to love being miserable and angry over something.

    Possible Portal Point Guards

    Not really a point guard though with a bad negative assist to turnover ratio unfortunately. More of a scoring guard.

    Without losing? That’s really strange to have a bye, win in the quarter finals and then play in a consolation game. Wonder if there is a missing game in the semi finals not posted on their webpage that they lost? Only way it makes any sense.

    He needs to harness that energy, emotion and work channeling it into increasing his efficiency, judgement and self discipline. It’s up to him to mature into the consistent player you can count on.

    Joe Girard playing well, Clemson down double figures.

    Joe G was Clemson’s leading rebounder with 7 over Scheiffelin (6) and Hall (1) - wow. Since our game Hall has really stunk - hurt? He wasn’t good even the game before ours against Notre Dame.

    Remember this is his 4th year in college, Kadary is a hybrid position player which is becoming more prevalent.We’re seeing more and more of these players who are more versatile on the court, not fitting the more traditional positions. Centers are seeing the same - more centers who spend half...

    Just got back from Cap One...

    One thing I noticed in this game when I was watching the media game ticker on my iPad, when we took Taylor out in the 2nd half for Q, the score was 41-48 and the next time out almost 3 minutes later the score unbelievably was 41-55. We didn’t score a point and they went on an additional 7 point...

    They have been a real strange team - look so good sometimes and absolutely horrific so many other games. So many up and down teams - Virginia is another one.

    Clemson’s fans just seem to hate Brownell - they have been crying for him to be fired for years - even this year when they were doing fairly well.

    B1G and SEC form joint advisory committee

    You can look at it a number of ways. That he’s arrogant being the fortunate recipient of being in the top of the caste system for so long OR if he was worried after all his success at the top of the heap then most every program should be worried OR if he thinks it’s the demise of college...

    OT: Womens hoop took center stage today.

    Actually this year, SU women, had a preseason closed scrimmage with UConn which could only help to show the team what is necessary to be successful. Thought it was really good that Coach Jack and Auriemma had mutual respect that each thought it was a benefit for them...

    Mike Hopkins and UW

    Guess, I don’t understand your point. He left in 2017 before the 2017-2018 season for Washington which, yes, would have been after the NIT. I had no issue with the timing. Sorry if I wasn’t clear. We had brought in 2 good transfer players, White and Gillon to fill one year open roster spots on...

    Only Cardosa who was charged with fighting - the others just ejected for that game for leaving the bench area.

    Love Hop but recruiting was down before he left. He left right before the 2017-2018 season. People were complaining before even then about recruiting wondering if JB and Hop’s summer Olympic involvement was hurting recruiting etc.

    Wow anyone watching LSU- South Carolina

    Fighting, pushing, ejections - 5 for LSU and 4 for South Carolina, Cardosa thrown out and will be out of the 1st round of the NCAA’s for fighting (she ran over and pushed down an LSU player retaliating for that LSU player pushing a SC player). Uggh dumb stuff.
