Running 2022-23 NCAA Basketball Thread

Last time Pitt won 20 games in a season I didn't even know my wife.

 

But I did!

Antoine Davis is now 97 points away from passing Pete Maravich, with at least two games (one in the regular season, and then the Horizon League tournament) left.

 

The back story: K.J. Buffen had no family to stand on the court with him for Senior night. His mother had died, his brother was killed.

He didn't stand alone.

 

That’s sweet.

 

It's not easy being a Rebel.
Ole Miss whacked head coach Kermit Davis this morning, at the tail end of a 10-18 season in which little has gone right since about mid-December. Seven losses by four points or less, and they've lost 15 out of 17.

I actually went last night and noticed that. Didn’t know the backstory of his family, but figured there had to have been some rough shit happen in life for nobody to make what amounts to a four hour drive from Georgia.

I also noticed Rice couldn’t stop you, me and three other drunks with a gun and a badge.

 

He takes a lot of shots and gets the benefit of the doubt as the coach's kid, but if you watch video, he's an amazing shooter and can just light it up.

 

He's a Rebel and he'll never, ever be any good.

 

Since he's now technically unemployed, but still getting paid by Ole Miss, I suppose that does make him a Rebel without a cause.

 

That was one helluva first half, and probably their most complete game of the season. I feel bad about doubting them, but I can't help but worry that they'll fall back into bad habits and not be able to make the undefeated run through the conference tourney and dance.

They're peaking at the right time, give them that.

Fun first half though. Looked up and it was 33-8.
