Around the Big East 25-26

Shaka needs to find the sweet spot re transfer component of roster imo. His philosophy avoiding the portal seems stubborn and foolish.

 

[Hardy]

Shaka smart: gets two transfers who go on to be nba players, makes sweet 16

Also Shaka: never doing that again

Seton Hall

Seton Hall

Providence has to be ahead of Xavier imho.

 

[SJUNC]

Georgetown will be better than expected

 

[Marillac2]

Creighton +700 is the best value.

I have nothing to say. Just quote-posting these .... because.

FYI- St. Louis and Bradley played 5 ten minute quarters. UConn and Michigan State agreed to play their exhibition under the six foul rule. Could have came in handy for Sanon and Sellers v Michigan.

NCAA should be 6 fouls but then again that means more time for Breeding and company to prove their incompetence

It looks like Kentucky is treating the game like an NFL preseason game.

I think we had this discussion before but I would much rather see a penalty; extra foul shot or something of that nature as a certain # of fouls is reached, possibly with escalating penalties, such as not being available for an amount of time as the penalty box in hockey as the # of fouls on a player mounts, rather than a banishment.
Makes a coach still have to manage fouls but doesn’t glue your best players to the bench. So a Richmond logically has to sit for fouling against Arkansas but can still be available at the coaches discretion.
