Just saw the box score for that game...crazy.
Wisconsin 2 for 21 from beyond the arc. At some point, you have to just stop taking threes, don't you?
I went to a Pitt game where the score was around 15 to 7 at half time. It was like 7-6 for most of the first half, then Pitt went on a 9-0 run in the last three minutes of the quarter. Both teams went something like 13 minutes without scoring a single point.
It was incredible, really. The other team was awful, so they were just taking horrible shots, passing it out of bounds, and dropping it going up for layups and stupid stuff like that. Pitt was just missing every shot they took. The crowd absolutely erupted when somebody finally scored.

I've been riding a high for the last couple hours. Can't wait for tomorrow night...
Preston Knowles is only 4 points away from being the 63rd Louisville Cardinal with 1000 points in his career, and possibly a 2nd Big East Tourney title under his belt.
UCONN won't be a slouch either, but I am hoping for a repeat of 2009. Hope we tire them and contain Kemba Walker.

Two dirty old man legends in one room.
I'd be down with anyone at this point. Tubby would at least keep some of our recruits from leaving.truly101 said:

He's a good guy, just not a coach. One of the best recruiters though.

Stony Brook and Boston U. channeling their inner Badger and Nittany Lion. Score after 4 minutes 2-0.

So you send Tubby Smith and Paul Hewitt through those gizmos from The Fly and Georgia Tech is set.
truly101 said:
Seriously dude? He couldn't recruit to a school coming off of THREE straight championship games. It doesn't MATTER if Atlanta can recruit itself. He won't be interested in the players trying to come. And before you say he can hire a good recruiter, don't bother, because he won't. We tried that at Kentucky and he refused to allow it. He willfully and deliberately refuses to take/recruit players that aren't his "type" no matter their skill or desire to play for his school.
Even at Kentucky, 4 of his seasons were ended in the second round. Kentucky is the only school he's been able to get beyond the Sweet 16. At Minnesota he's thus far not managed to escape the first round. If that's the best Georgia Tech wants, why bother firing Paul Hewitt?
Heres the ajc on who we could pick up.
Mike Anderson, Missouri: He presides over a Top 25 program in a major conference. (And Missouri can throw money at him to stay.) But he grew up in Birmingham and coached at UAB and worked under Nolan Richardson at Arkansas, and he might have a hankering to return to the South. And I for one would love to see his full-tilt style shake up the rather staid ACC.
Scott Drew, Baylor: He coached under his famous dad Homer at Valparaiso and has worked since 2003 in Waco, where he inherited a program leveled by a scandal involving the murder of a by a former player. Last spring he took the Bears to the Elite Eight, after which he signed a 10-year extension. Not sure hed leave for Tech, but how much longer is a coach this young (40) and skilled apt to stay in Waco?
Brian Gregory, Dayton: He doesnt fit the definition of a Hot Young Guy. Hes 44, which isnt that young, but hes 167-89 in seven-plus seasons at a mid-major that takes the sport seriously, and he apprenticed under Tom Izzo at Michigan State.
Cuonzo Martin, Missouri State: Heres your Hot Young Guy. Martin was Glenn Robinsons wingman at Purdue when the Big Dog was the best player in college basketball. Martin played in Europe and survived non-Hodgkins lymphoma and has become a coach of growing portfolio. He won 24 games last season at Missouri State, which as Southwest Missouri State perpetrated a memorable NCAA tournament upset of Clemson at the old Omni. Another reason to like Martin: He worked under Gene Keady at Purdue, and Keady assistants do well. Think Kevin Stallings at Vanderbilt, Bruce Weber at Illinois and now Matt Painter with the Boilermakers.
Chris Mooney, Richmond: Good young coach hes 38 at another pedigreed mid-major. He played under the legendary Pete Carril at Princeton, which means, surprisingly enough, that he runs the Princeton Offense. Mooney led the Spiders to the NCAA tournament last season.
Mark Turgeon, Texas A&M: Played under Larry Brown at Kansas, coached under both Brown and Roy Williams there. Turgeon also signed a contract extension after last season, in which he took the Aggies to the NCAA tournament for the third time in three tries. Not sure hed leave for Tech, either, unless he just wants out of College Station and into the ACC. (A&M is rumored to be bound for the SEC, which might or might not be a consideration.)
Craig Neal, New Mexico: Known as Noodles when he played at Tech, where he first served as Mark Prices backup before becoming an outstanding point after Price departed. He has been Steve Alfords chief assistant in Albuquerque since 2007, and last season the Lobos were 30-5 and entered the NCAA tournament as a No. 3 seed. I cannot imagine a circumstance in which Neal would not crawl to Atlanta for a chance to coach his alma mater.
Herb Sendek, Arizona State: Hes the dullest guy in the world, and hes not a great recruiter. He left N.C. State in a snit because Wolfpack fans werent satisfied with five consecutive NCAA tournament appearances. Theres a chance Sendek could get fired this season. Its not often a big-time program hires a coach who has just been canned at another school, but Sendek does have a history of winning in the ACC. He was 46-34 in league play his final five seasons at State.
Mike Anderson, Missouri: He presides over a Top 25 program in a major conference. (And Missouri can throw money at him to stay.) But he grew up in Birmingham and coached at UAB and worked under Nolan Richardson at Arkansas, and he might have a hankering to return to the South.

mike anderson is a good coach. i have no idea how much he wants the arkansas job but if he wants it a lot i could see him staying at missouri for now until it opens up. dont let him fool you scott drew is dirty and might be up for leaving before the shit hits the fan. i know yahoo has started investigating him/baylor basketball and ive heard rumors the ncaa is as well. i wouldnt want him leading my team although he will get you recruits but they will prob come with ncaa trouble down the line

Harrison Barnes is a great college basketball player and would be a great fit for the flex. I don't think he'll be a star in the NBA because his athleticism is only average, but he could pretty good.

Just throwing out my input for yesterday: Awesome second half for the Gators. I couldn't watch the game because I was working, but I had a bad feeling when I saw they were down at halftime. I'm continually impressed with their ability to fight back. Vandy is a tough matchup, but still winnable. I'm hoping Florida sticks to whatever they had going for them in the second half against Tennessee.

You don't want Drew, trust me. Nobody in the Big 12 likes him, most prominently the other coaches. He has an awful reputation as a dirty recruiter, and he doesn't seem to be a very talented coach, outside of recruiting.
Where's this TAMU to SEC business coming from? They may or may not want to go, but I'm 99% positive that the Texas legislature would block any attempt by TAMU to split the 3 Texas schools up.
