2018-2019 College Basketball thread/NCAA Tournament Talk

God, Alleva is the last person in the world to you’d want to handle this. I respect the move though.

 

He must have had a strong ass offer for the AD.

 

Welp ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Obviously Walton was fired and the Kings snatched him up less than a day later. My buddy is bummed as he was set to join his staff at Zona had it worked out that way.

"make 3-point shots more challenging and therefore less prevalent"

Riiiiiiight...

 

I don't think moving the three line back 5 inches is going to do a thing.

 

It's just change for the sake of change. Move it back to the NBA 3 point line and be done with it.

 

Guys who can shoot aren't worried about +/- 3 feet at least.

 

A notable percentage of them are from that distance or farther anyway

 

Uconn back to Big East. Someone finally uses common sense.

 

The least surprising development in the history of developments

 

I wouldn’t say a word if it wasn’t Forde (or Thamel or Wolken). Guy’s a total hack and has been throwing shit against the wall when it comes to Auburn for 10 years.

 

Yep, Ole Bruce is clean as whistle. Nothing to see here. Moving on...

 

Forde is running with that nonsense on his own, you see a lot of talk about it elsewhere? Auburn already paid a hefty price for what Chuck Person did. I’ve heard Bruce will probably have to serve a token suspension because they’re now sticking head coaches whether they knew or not.

You choosing to take Forde and his clowncar it pals seriously though, that could not be less surprising.

 

Saint Bruce is just misunderstood.

 

Did I say that? An assistant coach helped secure a small amount of cash to two players to leave Auburn and sign with an agent. Everyone knows this. Those players then sat out a full year. If you think Bruce is gonna get hammered for that, by all means Dooz.

 

I trash Forde as a hack and he’s so damn kind that 12 hours later he puts out a column where he gargles Urban Meyer’s nutsack. What a guy.

 

I don’t give a [uck fay] about Urban Meyer.

 

Not the point.
