    Langborg (and other Ivy Leaguers)

    I mean, he could. But he'd have to wear a mask.

    Reported Portal Visit: Fairfield PG Jalen Leach

    I think you gotta try for experience and athleticism in the portal. Need to contribute in a big way, right away, with the guys who are coming back. Being real - "all in" for us right now, isn't really national champion contender, not the way the game is played (on AND off the court) ... but...

    Was it a foul?

    I think that was the overriding sentiment. Hard to say it cost them the game given ... 1) They were already losing 2) They didn't get the rebound on the ensuing FT.

    Do you pull for the B10 @ the final 4

    Bama's only shot of beating UCONN is shooting a very high percentage of 3s for the game. I think they'll have trouble getting clean looks, but you just have to make contested ones for 40 minutes. I think they thrive on turnovers and UCONN doesn't turn it over that much. NC State vs Purdue is an...

    Do you pull for the B10 @ the final 4

    This. Having watched St. Anthony HS plenty over the years (that would be where Hurley grew up and received a master class in the sport from his father), I feel like UCONN would make life a living hell on Purdue's guards and make it so tough to get Edey the ball. I'd love to see the matchup...

    Our guy is in the portal: Malik Mack, Harvard

    As I expressed on other post - there are definite positives - but LISTED 3 inches, 25 pounds shorter/lighter than Langborg has me scared for his defense. Not to mention, wearing down in a more physical style. But I think that the Ivy guys saw what Langborg did this year. I hear they're a...

    Roster in review and the future

    Sure does. I do have some concerns in that he's listed 6-1, 170 ... I mean even Boo was listed at 6-2, 180 ... and I wished he was a bit bigger ....... but certainly, given the skill, the leadership, and where he grew up, I'm sure we'll be actively in on him.

    Something really awesome about national perspective

    I mean, maybe this is rationalization ... but to me, I think it's really a great reflection of where we are / can be as a program. The national perspective about us last night -- certainly wasn't that we were overmatched, lucky, happy to be there, out of our element, a dream season etc. It was...

    Boo deserved a better sendoff than disappointing loss to UConn

    He had that sendoff, but it was Friday. Special overtime period, we'll always remember.

    One negative to our win yesterday ...

    Yeah, realized that. I'm a bit slow. My fault.

    A curmudgeon’s impossible wish for restructuring the tournament

    Well, as long as you know it will never happen ... that's good.

    One negative to our win yesterday ...

    Didn't care during the season. Matters less now.

    WLAX @ Penn St. 3/22 7PM BTN

    I appreciate the responses of those with more experience than me; I'm a casual observer and certainly not down in the weeds. I'm confident (or at least hopeful!!!) that they will figure it out, they usually do. And I mean it's not like doom and gloom or anything. But the consistency just really...

    Like most of America I thought Oakland was in California. Wrong.

    Oakland IS in California But Oakland COUNTY is in Michigan.

    One negative to our win yesterday ...

    I'm sure our NET rating dropped 3 spots. I hope we make it to The Dance.

    Lost in the excitement of yesterday's win

    If they keep giving him he ball, he's gonna need a new display case soon

    Baseball Revival in 2024?

    Jeez Willie, that's really only 12 posts a year, so let's pick it up a bit, please! I enjoy your posts from the 1940s and 1950s myself, particularly the original Rose Bowl team. Can't wait to read the next 1000 ... and let's hope we keep Coach Greenspan around awhile.
