NCAA Basketball 23-24

[brian]

In a world where it’s legal to pay players, John Calipari is a dinosaur.

[mister d]

Well that was real bad.

[DSafetyGuy]

I must have turned off the Dayton game at the absolute lowest point because I just found out they won and I’m shocked. A-10 cannot be stopped.

[A_B]

Hey, Twitter kinda sucks today. Anyone else?

[degenerasian]

This is one of the craziest stats ever. Dude literally just operates behind the line. I'm guessing those 8 2PT shots were just him with his foot on the 3PT line.

[mister d]

That kid is the closest I've ever seen to myself in basketball. Tall friends + shitty handle + fear of a massive block and the ensuing mockery meant I almost never stepped inside the line when we'd play on real courts.

And I fucking hate you both.

He went Carson Edwards on Kentucky - complete with the banked-in three. Kentucky just needed Kihei Clark to save them.

What’s going on in this Northwestern-FAU game? They both average over 72 PPG, but it’s 16-12 with about 5:30 left in the 1st. They must’ve spent all last night in the Meatpacking District.

Don't know, the news broke in to tell me about cancer in the royal family.

[EnochRoot]

Yeah that tweet didn't age well.

Harold Arcenaux. Will remember that guy as long as I live

[EnochRoot]

So the lesson kids is to flop like a bitch to get the refs attention if they miss an errant arm that slaps your face.

I honestly didn't know they could review a blown call and apply a penalty in the past. I know about upgrading penalties, but not that.

[Nonlinear FC]

FAU-NW... they must've figured something out... 58-56 FAU with about 1:20 left in the game. Timeout, NW with possession.

[EnochRoot]

I never realized Goldin was such a prima donna.

[mister d]

Several kids on Northwestern and Kansas last night have looked more 1984 than 2024. Its really weird.

[mister d]

More like Yay Yayie.

[Ryan]

Classic "whoever does incredibly stupid things with the ball for the last 5 minutes won't win" game

[EnochRoot]

LOL at the refs not calling a foul there.

And now the announcers are saying they can't call a foul. Despite the fact Goldin flopping to the ground caused a stoppage of play several seconds later, and then they decided the no-call was actually a technical foul.

But the intentional foul by FAU can't be reviewed because it wasn't called.

So stupid.

[Ryan]

It's really bad.

[EnochRoot]

FAU is puzzling. Like, if you're going to foul, FOUL. Don't let them dick around for 10 or so seconds.

[mister d]

Yeah, that was weird and I'm more inclined to blame the coach for not being explicit there? Its like they weren't fouling but also not expecting Northwestern to eventually play.

[brian]

Stetson are getting their hats handed to them.

[mister d]

Ha, I haven't seen Bruce Pearl recently.

“We’ve decided to put SGA and Chet Holmgren in a commercial”

“Sounds great. Those guys can really ball”

“We’re going to have them sing”

“We’re going to have them sing”

A somewhat memorable song from before they were born. The kids will love it!

[Shirley]

BTW, I picked Auburn to win it all. Fuck me. I think I picked Purdue to win it all last year. I'm on a heater.

[sancarlos]

Two great finishes there in the CU/Fla and Yale/Auburn games.

SEC lost three games to lower seeded teams today.

Seems like a good place to drop this quote:

"We are giving away highly competitive opportunities for automatic qualifiers (from smaller leagues), and I think that pressure is going to rise as we have more competitive basketball leagues at the top end because of (conference) expansion."

Because everything sucks we know assholes like this are gonna win in the end but gotta hope he feels a little twinge of shame this weekend.

[Shirley]

Holy shit did Auburn miss a ton of free throws at the end. Good shooters too. It reminded me of how UVA blew the NC State game a week ago. (And nearly the BC game the night before)

SEC was seeded to be 6-0 right now. Instead, they are 1-5. Karma blames Sankey.

[rass]

Drives me crazy how lazy Nike is. Biggest event going and you give everyone “X Energy” shirts?

How about “Purdue Persistence”? No?

[HaulCitgo]

I saw duke wearing those and though it was great cause the utility. Didn't realize it was generic. Works way better duke.

Gonzaga Generosity! Florida Friendliness!

[rass]

Gonzaga Generosity! Florida Friendliness!

[rass]

The dick tweet have anyone else rooting against Houston?

[Ryan]

Evansville Energy

Florida Man!

Ok, here’s the part where we have to inquire wtf you’re talking about.
