That was my freshman year in high school and back in the time when games were mostly regionalized on CBS, so that was an English class special. Still scarred by that one.

 

Avery Johnson gets to do color commentary on the Norfolk State team that ended his college coaching career.

 

Sun Belt's 5th or 6th-best team won the conference tournament and the auto bid. And it shows. Don't these leagues realize they're costing themselves money in potential units when they don't send their best teams?

 

"When the Sun Belt sends us teams, it's not sending us their best. They're bringing 0-for-18 3-point shooting, they're bringing silly turnovers, they're bringing disinterested transition defense."

Last tournament win for Drake? Beat Notre Dame 50 years ago to the day.

NCAA women's college basketball: Amenities in bubble 'disrespectful'

 

MSU just had a possession in which they botched an in-rhythm corner three because the guy straight up dropped the pass, resulting in a shot clock violation, which sums up the season effectively.

 

Well, I mean holding all those weights above shoulder level is so unladylike ...
