Running 2011-12 College Basketball thread

Led from start to finish.

Hate it for the Commode-door fans in my family. Over-rated.

 

Or, you know, beholden to her religious beliefs and her congregation.

Especially in a world where we are constantly reminded of the supposed importance of sports to a community, it makes sense that someone would allow their religion to affect their entire life.

But I guess it's easier to just say "SCARY!!!!!"

 

I think that rubber floor destroyed a lot of knees. Michigan, NC State and a few others had it as well.

 

No Ezeli makes it tough for the Commies.

 

Knight, on this MNF interview sitting with Coach K, looks like he is sitting on that red-hot poker he once used as a motivational tool.

 

24 Hours of College Hooops has begun, I think. Washington State vs. Gonzaga on the mothership right now, at least, with a "Tip-Off Marathon" heading above the ticker.

I watch ESPN probably 20-25 hours a week, on average, and think I only saw half of the commercial for the 24-hour thing and, of course, didn't catch the start time.

 

Nevermind, it's in the featured story box on espn.com. I'm an idiot.

 

As many stupid things as ESPN does, this 20-some hour basketball marathon is fucking cool as shit.

 

I've been saying that for about a week, too.

I'm a little late to the party on commenting on this, but basketball on the battleship was absolutely awesome and breathtaking. Kudos to ESPN and the military for helping make it happen. College sports needed that in so many ways at the end of last week.

 

Couldn't sleep, so am watching Drexel-Rider. Is that a stage at one end of the court? At a D-1 program??

 

It looks like they're playing in a high school gym, maybe juco.

 

I thought the same thing; it was like he just discovered his name and number was listed on Sandusky's phone under "favorites."
