    See a lot of that in the women's game. A lot of "Moses Malone rebounds" with the players rebounding their own missed layup, throwing it back up and hitting the bottom of the rim.

    I would be amazed if it wasn’t.

    LOST: One head. If found, return to Vols men's basketball office.

    And that was a terrible call to start the USC game.

    There was a moment late in the 3rd quarter as LSU was nearing the end of its 2-for-17 stretch or whatever, and the cutaway shot to Mulkey just looked so much like, "It's your fault, players, not mine."

    I thought calling them “Southern Cal” was a big no no. Or did these uniforms come from the court design people?

    I’ve seen one (1) double dribble in the men’s tournament. Feels like I see at least one a day for the women.

    Don't know if they still do it since Tim Tessalone retired, but it used to be in the football media guide:

    'It's Not 'Southern Cal''
    Note to the media: In editorial references to athletic teams of the University of Southern California, the following are preferred: USC, Southern California, So. California, Troy and Trojans for men's or women's teams, and Women of Troy for women's teams. PLEASE do not use Southern Cal (it's like calling San Francisco "Frisco" or North Carolina "North Car.") The usage of "Southern Cal" on licensed apparel and merchandise is limited in scope and necessary to protect federal trademark rights.

    This is now an internet thing, thanks in part to abominations such as Outkick:



    Except all the yahoos calling LSU and bunch of commies and calling for federal funding to be withdrawn from the school are forgetting Kim Mulkey is a Trump fan. I don't know why LSU was in the locker room when the anthem was played but it's not some woke, Kaepernick kind of thing.

    It’s rare for teams to be on court for the anthem, at least regular season.
