Well, if they don't start off their investigation by digging up the bodies of John Wooden and Sam Gilbert, then the NCAA can go fuck themselves.

This shit's been going on for a long fucking time. Payment delivery methods have just become more sophisticated. Not surprising the shoe companies are fronting the $$$. Financial advisors? A lot of good they're doing.

I guess this is one way of making the Balls go away.

Bigtime road win for X in Wisconsin tonight.

Bluiett may be one of the better guards in the country and Macura is white fucking chocolate.

**Sluff** · 11-19-2017, 08:29 PM

Gophers looking good so far. Nice win at Providence. Hopefully we live up to expectations this year.

**BmillsSkier** · 12-02-2017, 02:38 PM

Huge week for X.

Beat #16 Baylor on Wednesday.

Curb stomped #11 Cincinnati today in the Cross Town Shootout.

Get em in your bracket going deep this year.

Did I see that nutjob pulled his kid out of UCLA to prepare for the draft?

The one that got detained in China for shoplifting?

Yeah, that should work out well.

Good to know he won’t be needing that free degree then.

Poor kids, saddled with an idiot for a father and too stupid to stand up to him.

Big East looking strong.

**iceman** · 01-20-2018, 10:50 PM

Geez it wasn't easy to find this thread. Seen a couple Oregon games lately, this kid Pritchard is sick.

I know Bill Walton drives people crazy but i get a kick out of him.

Also Trae Young is ridiculous.

Duke just got the top 3 recruits in the country for next year, fuck.

Hoyas up and down for Ewing. Beat St. John's today at least.

**BmillsSkier** · 01-21-2018, 12:13 AM

X with another huge Top 25 win tonight on the road, this time in the come from behind variety against Seton Hall.

Aside from getting curb-stomped at #1 Nova (and who wouldn't at this point?) they look like a Final Four caliber team. Senior led and tested.

**BmillsSkier** · 02-03-2018, 07:41 PM

Gave us a pretty good scare tonight, Ice!

Missed it by that much! Dammit.

How about St. Johns-Duke? I love it. SJU with 11 straight losses beats #4 duke, suck on that Dukies!

Love it. Although any other team would fall 10 spots after a loss like that; Puke will probably fall to #5

**wyeaster** · 02-03-2018, 11:52 PM

this isn't football and alabama come on

When Bluiett hit that 4 point play 3 to push OT I knew it was in the bag for X. That's a demoralizer.

Love it! I'm sure you noticed, cause Big East and all, but SJU has been really really close a lot this season. Just glad they pulled it all together against Duke and not X.

I think Mullen and Ewing are going to bring some good things to an already stacked conference in the next couple years.

And they do it again! This time at #1 Nova!

Trust me, Nova is good too.

X gets a gritty road win against the always tough to play Butler Bulldogs for their second OT game in a row.

Fun fact: assuming they both win their weekend games there will be two teams in the top 5 rankings who are in the same city and only separated by 3 miles, and they've already played head to head this year. (X and Cincy) I can't think of the last time something like that happened.

**BmillsSkier** · 02-10-2018, 03:41 PM

Holy shit what a finish by X at Creighton!

**BmillsSkier** · 02-14-2018, 11:27 PM

Wow, the bEast has another giant killer: Providence.

**SkiCougar** · 02-15-2018, 10:13 AM

Cincy still getting no respect.

project as the 8th or 4th #2 seed despite being ranked as 5 with many of the top 8 likely to have some more losses(villa, X, purdue, state and tech).
