Running 2023-24 NCAA Basketball Thread

Last week he called a timeout while standing on the midcourt logo.

 

Bruce Pearl is coaching a D1 basketball game while wearing a t-shirt.
Last week, I saw an entire coaching staff in sweatpants/hoodies.
What are we doing?
Enough of the warmup pants/pullovers. Let’s dress like actual college coaches.

 

I mean fuck Bruce Pearl on general principle. But the T-shirt is an annual thing for a cancer prevention fundraiser.

"This is a warning!! It's illegal for coaches to run on the court during the game! We mean it!'"

 

Chris Mullin is not walking through that door.

 

"With five games left in the regular season before the Big East tournament, St. John's likely needs to run the table the rest of the way..."

Should be a cinch for Pitino, once he's found the right guy to guard the restaurant door.

 

Move over, Detroit Mercy -- Mississippi Valley State is 0-26 with two home games in its final six.

 

I think someone who hasn't been at a higher-level program (no offense Iona) in seven years returned and found a very different landscape than what he was used to. I also have a feeling next year if they don't get in the tourney, he's done.

The crazy thing about this rant is that it's not like they are 9-17 and terrible. They are 14-12 and they have losses of 7, 6, 6, 4, 3, 1, 1 points. They have been a terible second-half team but they are a handful of possessions from being at worst 17-9. And they went into that game against Seton Hall as the last four out in a lot of projections.

 

Ain’t no brawl like a Southland brawl, because a Southland brawl don’t quit.

Just wanted to make sure everyone saw that VT 75, UVA 41 score from last night, the one in which UVA didn't break the 40-point mark until the final minute against Tech's bench scrubs.

 

Did UVA make more than 10% of its free throws this time?
