College Basketball 14-15

[Smack]

Purdue got murdered. When is opening day?

[Derwood]

Penn State is 11-1, yo

[Smack]

Penn State is 11-1, yo

 

On their way to a 17 win season?

Optimistically

Ugh, Iowa. At least we aren't Michigan.

[UMFan83]

This year maybe. I'll take this year in exchange for having the last 2 seasons.

true, Michigan just sent a bunch of players to the pros, easily explaining its recent struggles

[Guest]

Kentucky - 41

UCLA - 7

 

at halftime

 

Just give them a [expletive] bye to the championship game.

 

Don't crown them for what they did against UCLA.

[Smack]

Purdue lost to Gardner-Webb at home today. I guess our hope now is for the NIT. Sad.

[SouthSideRyan]

The Big Ten is going to have like 3 tournament teams in a 14 team conference

[Cubswin11]

And other than Wisconsin I don't think you can say any other team is a "lock" for the tournament. Worst case for them is everyone is shitty outside of Wisconsin, they take turns beating each other and all end up with 8-9 conference losses.

That's what I'm hoping for. That works in favor of a team like IU, who has wins over teams that could also be bubble teams (SMU, Pitt, and if they beat Georgetown Saturday, them too).

[SouthSideRyan]

I'd be shocked if OSU missed, but they haven't beaten anybody yet, so I guess it's possible they're not that good. What will probably happen is they'll wind up with like 5 9-12 seeds.

I generally dislike Michigan, but the Austin Hatch story is great. Good on them.

Their defense sucks. They'll have to out-chuck people this year

[apete6]

So, DePaul started 6-1 and are now 6-6 and have been blown out 4 times in the past week. If they don't fire the AD and everyone else down from there, they might as well disband the program. Jerkoffs.

Sounds like the feelings of Purdue fans right now.

I'd kill someone to have the past 25 years of Purdue basketball instead of DePaul's

I've watched you a couple times this year, love Myke Henry, where the hell do you guys go from here? I thought Purnell might be able to make it work there, but that clearly isn't the case.

Until they fire the AD and put a focus on athletics as a university (facilities, etc...), they won't get a decent coach in there and will probably be kicked out of the Big East when the TV contract is up in 8 years. There is close to 0 administration/board of trustees interest in athletics and the most apathetic fan base out there, the practice facilities are complete garbage, and the only reason they can recruit anyone is their location and opportunity for kids to think they are playing in a major conference. It's a dumpster fire.

[bukie]

Yay, Illinois' offense is fixed!

 

Now do it against teams that aren't terrible.

[shnsajax]

Wrong thread.

[Sosa21MVP]

Didn't realize Gunner Kiel is at Cinci.

 

He has a silky smooth mid-range jumper.

To me it's all about the lack of somewhere to play in the city. Unless they figure out a miraculous way to play somewhere downtown they're doomed. I was all about DePaul basketball back in the day, but by the time I was attending school there I had zero interest in being bused all the way out to see them play.

Is the South Loop close enough to downtown?
