Didn't help that the ACC went 0-3 against the B10 in the Tourney and two of them were blowouts. This was a game I thought FSU had a good shot of winning, man was I wrong. Just not competitive at all. 2 awful Sweet 16 performances by the ACC this weekend.

Pastner said in his PC earlier this week this is what all of them would do. No surprise here at all. We have 4 guys that are going to get feedback from the NBA and how many come back juts depends upon what they hear and what their personal situations are.

The reffing is irrelevant. What's the difference between a 15 pt loss and a 20+ pt loss. FSU was dog sh*t today. They have no offensive gameplan at all. It is mostly one on one hero ball. The Big10 was still overrated, and the ACC was still a mediocre at best conference this year, this game...

Bot teams shoot 33% in the first half. The basiv difference is TO and FT. FSU has 10 TO to 4 for MI and MI is 8-11 FT vs 1-2 for FSU. They were talking pre-game about FSU's length at guard and comparing it to the small guards at MI, but i've seen FSU struggle a few times this year against...

This is a good discussion for another thread, probably in the Lounge. What is the purpose of college athletics? Is it about capitalism and making money and then using that money on the sports that produce it? Is it about spreading the money made off it around among many sports? Is it about...

He is such a dork, probably perfect for GT.

I'm not saying he didn't succeed, he did. But he chose not to stay in the college game.

Just looking at how teams have performed in the ACC in the last 2+ years (last 42 games, and I chose that because it is the most advantageous to GT). Here are how ACC teams have performed in ACC games (both regular season and ACC tourney) in their last 42. FSU and UVA - 32-10 Duke 28-14 GT and...

didn't stay in college very long though (I guess you could say he never stayed anywhere very long) and went back to the NBA fairly quickly.

Just looking at this, I didn't realize how old Woodson is - he's 63 years old. He's a decade older than Matta. So it sounds to me like Matta handles alot of the behind the scenes stuff of running a program (hence his title) and allow Woodson to concentrate mainly on coaching.

So basically IN looks like it is going to coach by committee a little. NBA coaches succeeding in college is a mixed bag at best. Honestly, really only Juwan Howard has succeeded well at this point, He will need a couple of good recruiters on staff, but coming from the NBA will be a positive...

They also got a commit from Top 5 guard Hunter Sallis (the top rated guard that will go to college next season) in the 2021 class this past week. They also have a top 60 big man signee from WA in the incoming class.

They are so good offensively. They have been held below 85 pts just 4 times all season. 82-71 in a win at BYU, 78-55 against St. Mary's in the WCC Tourney, 76-58 at Pacific and 73-59 at St. Mary's. Heck ,they scored 98 @ UVA back in December. 12 games of 90 or more. 515 assists on 950 made...

With us down to 4 teams left playing after today i think we can expect the coaching hires to pick up in the next week at the big name schools as they likely get to interview candidates they have been waiting on. Do we see any high major coaches change jobs this week opening other high major...

I doubt we go more than 7-8 deep, that is basically what Pastner is comfortable with. Let's wait and see who comes back before we worry about how many play.

Of course the reason for AL's setup is that the analytics suggest that not enough players can hit jumpshots in the 10-18 ft range to make it worthwhile to take them. It's pretty simple to chart. You simply take the value of the shot and multiply it by the percentage of makes. That gives you a...

You definitely won't like AL and Nate Oats. His entire offensive philsophy rests on advanced analytics that say any shot other than a shot in the circle or a 3-pt shot are bad shots. In their practices they tape their floors and basically show where there players should take shots from and they...

Syracuse was going to lose as soon as they had a bad shooting night. In their first 2 Tournament games they shot 54% from the field and 50% from three (29-58). Those were both way above their season avg (44% and 35%), eventually they were going to come back to the mean. They came back largely...

Good play, just didn't go down. That was a fun game to watch.

Oregon State joins the 2002 Missouri Tigers as the lowest seed ever to advance to the Elite Eight. The lowest seed to make the Final Four is an 11-seed, which has occurred 4 times. Last time that happened was Loyola-Chicago in 2018. (LSU 1986, George Mason 2006, VCU 2011). The only other double...
