I remember & Mourn Article: All from a snob who moved from the Boston Burb's and no can say you All
 
Good Seth Davis article. Really understands the impact of Baye and Jerami had on our losses. Thinks we are one of five to win it.


Florida. My pick to win it all.

Syracuse. Got their mojo back.

Louisville. Pitino is working his late-season magic again.

Wichita State. Yes, I think they're that good.

Michigan State. They're not healthy and in sync now, but they've got two weeks to get there.

Very interesting article from him. I might need to make a new post that discusses the refereeing issues he brought up.

I liked this section.

Based on my conversations with coaches over the last few weeks, and based on what I've seen, it appears that the refs are once again letting too much contact go. Adams has noticed the same thing. Next week, he is going to have a conference call with roughly 100 officials, during which he plans to re-emphasize the importance of preserving freedom of movement for the offensive player, whether he's a dribbler or cutter. Remember, referees are independent contractors who are monitored by various league coordinators. So the only area in which Adams and the committee have the ability to reward and punish the zebras is through their assignments in the NCAA tournament.

In other words, another adjustment is coming. Players and coaches who grew accustomed to more physical play down the stretch of the regular season are going to be dealing with referees who will call games more strictly because, just like the teams, they want to advance to the later rounds of the NCAA tournament. This is all part of the adjustment process that is going to take longer than one year. Former Phoenix Suns' GM Jerry Colangelo recently told Adams that when the NBA clamped down on hand checking, it took three years for everyone to adjust accordingly. And that's with one commissioner and a smaller roster of referees who are fulltime league employees. So the task that college basketball faces in cleaning things up is even more daunting. It's a worthy destination, but we will see during the NCAA tournament that the journey won't always be pretty.

I take it that's your old hometown?
Nah, too many Italians LOL.

It's next door (almost) to Utica. And it's Frankfort (notice the 'k' - that's my gripe - it's been misspelled in those ads for MONTHS)
