Just didnt shoot all that great until later in the 2nd half. The team hasnt played in well over a week do to the finals, and you could tell. They were rusty big time.

that was close for temple, lucky the refs didnt call a BS foul on that georgetown shot.

Good news for you. We practiced and prepared for the game all week with the idea that our transfer from Marquette would be able to play only to have the school say that he he still isn't eligible even though the semester is over because he has to wait till the deadline for professors to change grades (even though he has had ever professor email compliance to say his grades are final). Awesome!

You just need to put a lot of pressure on Pitt the entire game. Our ball handlers are not that great and if Jamie still wants to try and play 8 or 9 guys, there will be discord on the press break. I really hope you guys push us.

so indiana plays UK today. indiana...i feel bad for them. not because UK is amazing (we're pretty good) but because they are bad and not getting any better. should be a fun game to watch, though.

:lol just wait a couple years.
We're probably going to be a NIT team this year, NCAA next year with Cody Zeller coming in and then we'll have the top class in 2012 and be back to where we should be from there on out. We've got some loaded classes lining up starting with 2012.

I have to disagree about not getting better. They are and I think next year they will have an NCAA team. Their big problem is that Tom Pritchard gets minutes. If Creek ever gets back to 100%, I think a starting lineup of Hulls, Creek, Jones III, Watford, and Zeller will be pretty good next year.
2012 on though they are going to be legit again. I was all aboard the "Tom Crean just isnt going to get it done at IU" but with getting the #20 guy in 2011 and #10 and #17 guy in 2012 (all which are more of four year players than one and done), I think Indiana will be for real again under him.
Saying all that, today shouldnt be competitive. I think this is actually going to be a huge day for Harrellson. He is actually a lot better than anyone who will guard him.

Yeah they gave Illini lots of trouble in the 1st half a few days ago before McCamey just went crazy.
They will be a tournament team for sure.

i don't "excuse" any player, but with Cal, as his history has shown you can never be sure about the wins he puts in the books. You're right though, the NCAA actually preempted this years ineligible player.NewLib said:

And MICHIGAN!

See this is what I dont get about Louisville fans. Instead of hoping to you know have a better year than your rival, have better players, etc., you just pray that their players are declared ineligible. You know if and when the hammer comes down on Cal, we can have all the internet I Told You So's imaginable.
I guess my point is I make a jab at Louisville and instead of coming back at with the argument that Louisville will beat Kentucky (which they very well might), you come back with "Cal is dirty". How about some pride in your own team? You just had a big victory.

Marquette struck down by the hand (physical perimeter defense) that got them back in the game! Beautiful irony.
NewLib said:
To be fair our defense is really good. It is like the fact that you have to play defense to win clicked in Pearl's head last year after he kicked Tyler Smith off the team.
Edit: What is surprising me though is our play inside. I though we were going to get dominated.
