Do his teams play the style on offense or defense (or both) that Red wants to play? If so, he can help teach and develop guys for that system? I have no idea what his teams played. We lose the coach that develops guard play. Does he have a track record of developing guards? Certainly Leffew...

Agree. Would have liked to see a hire who could expand recruiting ties to a new area.

What? Our team is light years away from a #10 national ranking. Still trying to avoid a #10 ranking in the ACC.

Is it too late to get Ballo?

Good grief. Cashman just loves guys who can't hit .200.

The pen is going to be a major problem for the Yankees this year. It was great last season mostly because of King and Wandy who are both gone and replaced by a bunch of rejects from other teams. The only guys that are trustworthy are Ian Hamilton and Holmes. And with Holmes you never know if he...

Judah doesn't know what's happening with his draft possibility so he has to be non-committal to keep his options open. Red cannot let Judah hold him up for an answer until June while all the portal options sign elsewhere. Red did the only thing he could for the good of the program. He made the...

Best of luck to Judah. Now I'll have an interest in watching the 2nd round of the NBA draft.

Knicks going down the crapper. The injuries have forced Thibs to play such a short rotation he's been playing guys 46 minutes a game and now you can see how fatigue is destroying their effectiveness. It's becoming obvious Randle likely isn't coming back and who knows about OG. A slide down to...

We would never get a guy this muscular.

Nice shot by Donnie to beat the buzzer. He looks more like a 3 than a 4.

Since Bell hasn't appeared in the portal the assumption is Red has told him he's the starting SF again next season. Freeman starts at PF. Red clearly wants a true center from the portal. Weather Lampkin fills that role is debatable. So Brown was looking at a bench role backing up the PF/C. Which...

So why is Red bringing him in? He better get someone who can guard the bigs we're going to see at the top of the conference teams.

State is on a great roll. Congrats to them they earned it. I don't know how we beat them twice. But they're a different team now. Burns vs Edey is going to be fascinating. Burns is so quick and has such great footwork it's possible he scores inside and gets Edey in foul trouble. Looking forward...

The refs really helped Purdue by calling the game tight. If Tenn breathed on Edey it was a foul.

Two observations from last night: 1. It's amazing how many times a coach calls a TO and then his team runs a play to get a quick easy bucket. Seems like that rarely ever happens for us. 2. UNC should hire Roy back as a bench coach for Hubert Davis. Davis has zero idea how to make adjustments...

Next season will depend on how Red answers 2 questions: 1. Who is the PG? Red cannot let himself get hung up waiting until June for Mintz to decide if he's coming back. All the good PGs in the portal will be signed by then. Wish Judah well and move on. Get a top PG from the portal. The...

Louisville program dropping like a stone in prestige if that's all they can get.

At least they buried the UConn game on TruTv.

The awful, weak ACC gets 4 teams in the Sweet 16. Hahahahaha. Eat it pundits.

It's amazing how good a team can be (and look) when they have a center who can score and pass out of double teams with great vision and 2 wings who can shoot 3's and create their own shot off the bounce -- like NC State has played this last week. It's not rocket science. Hit the portal Red.

Izzo had his team work out in full pads yesterday. Mich St in their puke green unis.

Some big money UK boosters want to replace Cal with Billy Donovan. Discussed on ESPN yesterday. Woe to any UK coach who loses in the first round to a much lower seed, twice no less.

William & Mary is a step up from Cornell?? Huh?

Break time from these so far unexciting games. Question: How much would the field need to be expanded before Cuse could get in? Remember the days we all used to be against expanding the field?

Freeman and Brown are likely the two best players on the team. They both need to start. Neither will be happy sharing time. Nor is it optimal to not maximize the minutes of your two best talents.

If Bell starts it indicates that Brown would again be at center since it's certain that Freeman starts at one of the forward spots. If we get a legit center from the portal, which is a top need, then Brown moves to a starting forward and Bell becomes 6th man. Not sure that Bell would accept...

Strength of Schedule is not valued by the NET system. Not like the old RPI system. Either change your schedule or be left behind. Some teams figured this out faster than others.

Q is talented he just doesn't fit. He wants to start. He's too wild to be a PG. He can't shoot well enough to be SG. Freeman/Brown/Bell at forward. So there's no role other than spark off the bench and it's going to be hard to get the type of minutes he wants. Wish him all the best.

Good. Time to clean house (except for a few). Let's go Red. It's go time.

These home courts in the women's tourney is BS. Send us to UConn in Storrs. So predictable. Screw this so called tourney.

Offensive and defensive efficiency is going to correlate strongly with scoring margin. To maximize both Ken Pom and NET you need to run up scoring margins in wins and minimize margins in defeat. If you look at our team this year we have just as good of a story on Won/Loss Q1-Q2 as many teams...

Then get ready for a record number of turnovers.

Welcome to "I used to love Selection Sunday, but now I don't care about Selection Sunday". It's just another Sunday.

Anyone on the team who has his eye on the portal and doesn't want to play in the NIT can leave now and good riddance. I hope Red has the stones to recruit over some of these guys and raise the talent level of the team for next year. That's the difficult business end of being the HC. We'll see.

The bubble shrunk yesterday as 4 teams won conference tourneys who were never going to get bids. There's a chance for 2 more today. As teams that were previously last 4 or last 8 in get left out now they get pushed into the NIT. I have a hard time seeing how Cuse gets into the NIT now. How sad...

It's hard to see the Yankees going anywhere this season. The starting pitching outside of Cole is poor and now he will miss at least the first 2 months. The pen is going to go from best to bad. The reason it was so good was heavily because of Mike King and Peralta. They're both gone. Loaisiga...

Having the transfer portal open before the NCAAT is over is just insane. But then the whole administration of college sports is insane today.

So is St John's getting a #5 seed because of the reputation of Slick Rick? Likely will be massively over-seeded.

If DJ Horn is OK then State has a chance. UNC will not be able to bully State in the paint which negates a lot of their game. Should be interesting.

Agree that Judah is likely gone. He won't get drafted so his play will be to transfer for a bigger NIL payday than he can get here.

It's debatable if Cuse is even a top 65 program now. Never did I think I'd ever see this. Red needs to hit the portal hard.

Frankly the only guys I want back are Brown, JJ, Copeland and Bell. We have 2 good freshmen coming in. Red needs to hit the portal hard and bring in some size and muscle up front so we don't have another year of getting bullied in the paint. Oh, and get a PG who distributes the ball.

Raise the talent level next year. Get in the portal and import some size and muscle up front that can play with physical ACC teams. Every good team bullied us in the paint. Tonight was unwatchable. Moore and Freeman should improve the perimeter shooting which was also horrible this year.

IMO it's unlikely we get NIT. Our NET is just too low. Will go lower after another huge margin beatdown tonight.

I used to feel that way. But 3 consecutive years of not even sniffing the tourney has really eroded my interest in it.

Maybe Fran Brown should do our basketball recruiting too.

Clemson is a really bad match up for Cuse. We are too small across the front line to deal with them in the paint. We need more size and muscle up front which has been lacking for at least 8 years. The Tigers had their way in the paint. Our offense relies on turnovers to fuel it and we didn't get...

Hopefully we learned something from our scheduling this year and our NET experience. Next season we should game the NET rankings just as other teams, and entire conferences did this season. 9 of our 11 OOC games next season should be scheduled against Q4 teams. Run up the margin of victory in...

Gritty performance by Taylor. Good for him. But why oh why does the ball end up in the hands of our worst free throw shooter multiple times in late game situation where you know the opponent is going to foul. Have to get the ball into your best free throw guys.
