Around College Basketball (non-Big East) 2018/19

[quote="ron " post=324777][quote="richard A Steinfeld" post=324776]Just read that Boheim was behind the wheel of a car that killed pedestrian.[/quote]

He was not at fault. The man killed was a passenger in a car that was involved in an accident before Boheim happened upon the scene. The man was walking on the highway. Apparently, neither speed or alcohol was was involved. Very unfortunate![/quote]

Agree on all counts. Still, it was the right move to tell ESPN College Gameday not to come on Saturday (they will do a studio show, instead).
 
35,642 a college record to watch Duke play Syracuse tonight at the Carrier Dôme.Absolurtly amazing. What a game , what a spectacular player and athlete Barrett is. Single handedly keeping Duke in this game.
 
How many 5 stars redshirt. Was he really going to stay 5 years. No question marks for my first 2 sentences because they are rhetorical questions. Bama sometimes redshirts a 5 star and then they live after their sophomore redshirt season so what's the point of the redshirt. May as well get some use out of them and let them gain some experience. K probably should have used him sooner.
 
Sid Wilson still a challenge

Dan Hurley on different starting lineup, sans Vital and Wilson:: "A combination of me not wanting them in there, as well as violating the conduct that you carry yourself as a member of my program. That’s why people were sitting.”

Raw big man with minimal skill and skinny build with major attitude issues...couldn't have happened to a better program! Thank god we dodged him.
 
Rutgers dealt Minnesota a major blow to their chances to dance by beating them 68-64 yesterday. Rutgers is a decent team with a great young core. Our win there shouldn’t be overlooked by our fans.

Our non-conference schedule was not good, but Rutgers and VCU have beaten expectations in decent to very good conferences, and that has made it more tolerable (and better) for us.

Bowling Green too, though most of our more astute fans knew they were going to be good.

Yeah, they flashed to Maria Taylor in the farthest seats and it was a joke, even she said you couldn't see anything and there were folks sitting there watching the game on their phones. On the flip side the guys sitting there got to look at Maria Taylor.

Princeton is 15-8 as well and could win a very top-heavy Ivy League with four wins to close out the year.

Our recruitment of Sid Wilson still puzzles me. Was he a Matt recruit?
 
[quote="Jack Williams" post=325770]Syracuse is playing at UNC tonight and it isnt even on TV. Streaming on ESPN3. How does that happen[/quote]

Directv Channel 790

Assume it is because they are no longer NY’s team

Yes but its not a nationally televised game. Instead on ESPN they are showing Wisconsin visit a bad Indiana team. You can't tell me that game would perform better than Cuse @ UNC. on ESPN2 they are showing LSU play a bad Texas AM team

Understood, Raycom televising regionally, just pointing out it is available other than ESPN3 streaming.
Tim Brando, he of the belief South Orange is a borough, is on the call.

ACC Network. Cablevision on LI ch 10. Directv 790. Think there is a new ACC network in conjunction with ESPN launching in August and will probably have their own channel ala BIG 10 and SEC and PAC 12.
