Around the Big East

[SJU85]

Lay off my guy Spanarkel!

Man he’s got to be better than that. It was so obvious and yet are going on about how much time would be on the court as Pierre didn't step out and got rid of the ball before which was subsequently deflected out by a Nova player like it counted when the whistle had already blew the play did.

 

[IDRAFT]

Two inadvertent whistles in the last 4.5 seconds. Three reviews in the last 4.5 seconds, giving both teams (each out of timeouts) free timeouts. In two cases that gave English the ability to draw up out of bounds plays, of course, seeing what they ran they might have been better off if he stayed out of it.

The replay rules in place are madness.

DePaul up 9 with 5 minutes to go @Georgetown...

 

[espken]

No Sorber, no Epps, no chance

DePaul up 9 with 5 minutes to go @Georgetown...

Gtown w/o Sorber & Epps

 

[paultzman]

DeP beats GT without Sorber on road by 5

 

[dk423]

First DePaul Big East victory in two years!

 

[espken]

First Big East win in 730 days for DePaul

Gtown w/o Sorber & Epps

Yeah obviously that is tough for them without 2 key players.

DePaul has been snakebitten losing 3 OT games all of which theyled with less than 1 minute to play. They were going to knock someone off.

Gtown needs to regroup now.

Looking at Marquette's near loss to DePaul last night, they were pounded on the boards again, -15 on the evening.

I really do think they have a weakness there that we can exploit. I am starting to get really pumped for that first matchup with them at MSG. I am sensing a big Zuby game

Sweep is in the realm of plausibility.

 

[paultzman]

Nova is the gold standard of honoring and staying in touch w former players. Hopefully Ed Kull will get this going at SJU.

 

[Mullins Revenge]

Heck of a matchup to start off the day. Uconn vs Creighton.

 

[Andrew]

Frankly I'd be happy with 5 BE teams in even if we are only a 7 seed though would much prefer a 5 or 6.

Really want to avoid the 8/9 game. It gives us a decent chance to win our first NCAA tournament game in 25 years but then puts us up against a 1 seed. A 5 or 6 seed would be ideal. I would almost rather have an 11 seed then be in the 8/9 game. Syracuse made the Final Four from there a few years ago.

 

[espken]

$2 beer day at UConn. Authorities with abundance of calls from mothers reporting money stolen from their purses.

 

[Jack Williams]

If you catch Jamiya Neal on the right day he looks like he should be in the league

 

[espken]

Neal had Hurley blowing a gasket on his team.

 

[dk423]

UConn is so beatable this year.

 

[Mullins Revenge]

kalkbrenner alters/blocks more shots than any college player I have seen in awhile.

He changes rhe entire way teams play offfense.

 

[sjc88]

UConn is so beatable this year.

They are missing McNeeley or however you spell it. Our 1 point loss at Creighton doesn’t look as bad.

 

[Jack Williams]

UConn was bad this half
