Running 2011-12 College Basketball thread

Bozeman had already been suspended once after getting into some sort of fracas at a sandwich place in Farmville, Va., when Morgan State played at Longwood.

Here it is:

Hey, the girls are still pretty good. BK and SB.

 

Loved it when they played KU at home. Very quiet in there, and only a couple minutes in, you're already hearing O'Neill, plan as day on TV......."ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME?"

 

I had a buddy who used to work on the scorer's table during home basketball games at Alabama. His seat was the one closest to the opposing team's bench. He said that the coach with the filthiest mouth was BY FAR Kevin O'Neill (who was then at Tennessee).

 

Except that Pat Summitt was diagnosed with Alzheimer's.

 

My wife works at USC; a few months ago she received a free Kevin O'Neill bobblehead doll with some goodie bag that went out to all employees. It's a constant source of amusement to make his head go while letting loose with a stream of blue words.

(Note: the bobblehead is sponsored by Coca-Cola - sadly, it's not more accurately co-sponsored by Jack Daniels.)

 

Iowa is bad. Real, real bad.

Saw afterward that Fran McCaffery did a Bobby Knight imitation when his deficit reached some 30 points, except instead of tossing the chair across the floor, he raised it straight up and spiked it straight into the hardwood.

 

This Baylor-KSU game looks like it's going to be a good finish. They're exchanging body blows at this point. Baylor's foul trouble could end up being an issue.

 

Iowa got skunked at home by Campbell, a team that couldn't beat Houston Baptist on the road. So there's that.

 

The Kansas State coach is one miserable prick. If I were President of that school watching his post-game interview, I would be less than amused.

 

Back in the day, Iowa flat out scared the shit out of teams in Iowa City.

Now? Cheap knock-off of a college basketball team, and has been for a while.

 

Interesting first half in Lubbock.

The first 10 minutes featured Billy Clyde getting whacked, a Tech player getting whacked after making contact with a KU player who was out of bounds, and another Tech player getting a flagrant 2 (essentially, it was a punch.)
