SEC Conference Records
Parity, total shittyness, or both?
From what I've seen, absolute mediocrity from almost the entire conference.
Pretty much :-\ Hope for 3 SEC teams to make the NCAA tournament, but it's not looking good right now. Tennessee losing to Texas A&M this past weekend? *sigh* At least Mark Fox had that 4 game SEC winning streak for Georgia until they played Tennessee (and bounced back with a win against SC), so he'll hopefully retain his job for next year since I feel he deserves a little more time before upending things once again with yet another new coach.

I don't know if I'm surprised or not at Duke not moving much or who should be ranked higher, if anybody. Duke looked all kinds of terrible against Carolina in the second half, though. Yeah, they beat Syracuse, to which Boston College says "join the club!"
Oh well, as I said last week and before, it will all sort itself out in March.

Sucks too cause based on talent we should be so much better. But when you have a coach that has no idea on what an offense is and whose defensive philosophy has been killed by the new rules you are left with the most disappointing team not named Oklahoma st.

The ACC Tournament as of today. We may end up with the rare situation where the loser of Duke/UNC Pt. 2 has a better road in the conference tourney. I would certainly rather be the 4 seed right now.

I think UVA's legit. They're better at getting stops than anybody else is at anything, so I'd rather play 'Cuse in round 2.

Apparently Myles Turner is going to be at the Duke/UNC game.

I guess we can start this game now. Who transfers?
Assuming Cook and Sulaimon stay, Parker and Hood leave, seniors graduate (Hopefully Hairston doesn't find some kind of loophole to stay on the team another year)
We have:
T. Jones
Cook
Sulaimon
M. Jones
Allen
Ojeleye
Winslow
Plumlee
Okafor
(Possibly) Turner
That's a lot of ballers with only one ball

You forgot Amile.
Top 15 shooting guard Charles Matthews is announcing his decision tomorrow. I had no idea he was close to a decision. UK has been seen as the favourite for a while, but this timing seems pretty bad for us. Probably headed to Illinois now or maybe Kansas.
If we lose him, then Luke Kennard becomes even more important for the 2015 class. Don't seem to have any major backcourt targets outside of Kennard and Malik Newman.

Turner is not coming to Duke, but I don't think Rodney Hood is leaving. He's been a good player, but he's late first round at best. He'd be a junior next year anyway.
The TDD transfer mongers are already talking about Ojeleye transferring, I just think that would be dumb on his part since he's always been since as a 4 year guy. He'll get a shitlload of pt his junior year since most of the team will be gone after 2015.

Mark Turgeon after loss: "We are a better team than Cuse". Boeheim's response: "If they didn't turn it over 18 times, they could say that".
Shame the Turtles leave this year. They could have started another not-rivalry, this one with Syracuse.

Duke's offense is junk right now. They have not shot the ball well in forever.

Could just be fatigue. Jump shots keep hitting front of the rim.

Well, they've got a week off before their next game. Rest up. They don't play again until @ Wake next Wednesday.

ESPN guy just promoted a GoHeels.com piece on Meredith Stapleton. I read it this afternoon, worth the read.

Indiana. Up 10 at half. Getting blown out in the second half.
and we're gonna go there and lose in a couple days
Don't worry - you'll win @ MSU next week.
Wisky and Michigan are the two best teams right now. Everyone else is falling apart.
Indiana. Up 10 at half. Getting blown out in the second half.
Wisc 19 points in first half and 50 in second.
Fucking lol.

Solid win for us at home. I was worried after the beat down WVU put on us on the road. Looks like we just had an off week. Need to finish out the season with wins.

I hope this link works.. I couldn't figure out how to download a video from the flash player on facebook. A gif of Paige and Meeks at the end would be awesome.
