we're gonna win the ACC! Wahoo!

nvm, Florida State remembered how to play basketball. only down 38-43 now

11/24/2009 8:29:49 PM

maryland looked pretty crappy tonight against Cincy. I guess it is still early though

Maryland should be consistently a top 20 program. They have a great recruiting base and won a national championship not too long ago. Williams has really struggled to get enough talent to that school (and it shouldn't be as hard as he is making it look).

11/24/2009 10:19:33 PM

cmon they weren't a one man team for 2 years. they had an awesome pg and a white lobster and that african dude and paulus goslin

^^ here is an interesting article about his recruiting problems...

(more in link)

Quote :

"COLLEGE PARK, Md. – He ate dinner with North Carolina’s Roy Williams and toured the Villanova campus on a golf cart driven by Jay Wright. But when high school standout Kendall Marshall went to Maryland for an unofficial visit, he never met the head coach. Instead of Gary Williams, Marshall and his parents were greeted at the Comcast Center by a Terrapins assistant. After asking Marshall’s mother to wait outside, the assistant escorted Marshall and his father, Dennis, into a musty men’s dressing room, clearing away clutter so the two could sit. Using a dry erase board, he gave the Marshalls a short presentation about how Kendall would fit into Maryland’s program. And then? “That was it,” Dennis Marshall said. “The whole visit was over in 20 minutes. No tour of the campus, no tour of the facilities … nothing. We just walked back to our car and went home.”"

And there was like a four day story on how Sweaty doesn't deal with handlers and AAU which made me nauseated. He was neck fucking deep in the Rudy Gay AAU sweepstakes and then bitched about how UConn "cheated" even though they never broke a single fucking rule in his recruitment that was on the books at that time.

And then this motherfucker, Gary Williams, had the gaul to act high and might about Rudy Gay and be, once again, neck fucking deep in the recruitment of Lance "Born Ready" Stephenson, perhaps the most shady recruitment we've seen in a decade...

He can rot in hell as far as I'm concerned... and then eat the scraps off of Georgetown's recruiting plate.

Zoubek is seriously the worst player I've ever seen at an elite team... it's just pathetic. How was this guy highly recruited.

11/25/2009 10:57:53 PM

mcmillan is terrible.


classic 2 TOs with a duke layup in the middle to put the game out of reach. give them an inch, they take a mile

ugly game for both teams

duke would be in a lot of trouble in conference during a normal year. this year...maybe not so much

11/25/2009 11:03:52 PM

I have this horrible feeling they will be drilling fade-away contested 3's in two days...

But I don't see anyone on Duke that can contain Dyson or Robinson...

11/25/2009 11:04:48 PM

well since you dont actually need to attend uconn to play for them just grab some guys from the streets of ny to out-athlete them

11/25/2009 11:06:30 PM

???? Kemba is the only guy from NYC on the roster...

[Edited on November 25, 2009 at 11:09 PM. Reason : duke is pretty solid on the nj pipeline tho

[Edited on November 25, 2009 at 11:09 PM. Reason : scheyer flop!]

11/25/2009 11:07:34 PM

if there's one positive i can take from this game is that Duke definitely doesn't miss Boateng.. dude is awful

11/25/2009 11:09:43 PM

scoring drought followed by a foul on 3 pointer....

11/25/2009 11:10:19 PM

if you have cstv, stanford still up 2 on uk with >2min to go

11/25/2009 11:34:24 PM

I've watched 3 of their 4 games and I've thought the same thing...

Been more impressed with Lance Stephenson (the other MAJOR headcase from the class) than DC as a team player..

[Edited on November 25, 2009 at 11:36 PM. Reason : and wall is my november POY... no joke. ice water.]

11/25/2009 11:35:50 PM

stanford could have sealed it up at the line... epic choke. they will lose in ot

11/25/2009 11:37:39 PM

LOL @ this celebration

11/25/2009 11:54:36 PM

Clemson is remembering who they are early this year... Guess they aren't used to playing an actual team this early in the season...

11/26/2009 5:49:43 PM

This is probably the worst ACC since 1999. 4th best conference at best... and I'm not 100% certain the SEC isn't better.

11/26/2009 6:52:51 PM

ugh if only we were the golden child of the NCAA and couldve gotten Harrow in here a year early .500 in conference could at least be a delusion of grandeur

instead we're getting him and Zo in the same year everyone else is bringing in the equivalent of Teixeira and Sabathia as well

11/26/2009 6:56:45 PM

UConn-Duke in the Garden tonight @ 5:30 or so... Duke is so used to having a home game every time they hit the Garden floor, but it should be 50/50 or 60/40 UConn in the crowd tonight.

Duke is a 3.5 pt favorites.

11/27/2009 9:26:51 AM

I was suprised when I saw that the line was in favor of duke. Duke looked like shit the other night and UConn looked damn good. Stanley robinson is going to torch whoever is guarding him.

seems like easy money to me regardless if its usually a "home" game for the dookies.

yeah but Duke won its first few games of this tourney by like 30+ each...Arizona State was their closest game...whereas UConn won their first few by like 10 points each...before stomping the piss out of LSU

Go Huskies!

11/27/2009 5:00:13 PM

wtf are these refs watching? that "elbow" call on uconn was terrible

11/27/2009 5:27:01 PM

I didn't see that one, but Nolan Smith's entire hand was out of bounds last time down...

11/27/2009 5:34:06 PM

i enjoyed the first half

11/27/2009 5:56:13 PM

Jeez, can't even hit 2 foot bunnies.

UConn'll be a lot better in Feb/March. Weds was just fools gold.

wow backcourt much

never knew you had to have possession, but i think i was assuming inbounding it implied like an origin of possession

[Edited on November 27, 2009 at 7:08 PM. Reason : ]

11/27/2009 6:55:56 PM

Not at all, actually. Have to establish possession. Ref saw him tip it and even made the tipped signal...

Dyson is going to be bruised all over. He gets drilled when he gets fouled. Yikes.

[Edited on November 27, 2009 at 6:59 PM. Reason : haha... outplayed but NO luck either... my lord.]

11/27/2009 6:58:23 PM

stall ball makes me want to fucking kill myself

11/27/2009 7:04:28 PM

worst free throw shooting team ever?

11/27/2009 7:15:17 PM

memphis the other year

11/27/2009 7:17:24 PM

Dyson is an 85% FT shooter... he had the worst game of his career. Total frustration.

Actually, all three of UConn's best players were taken out of their game.

Duke looked really good, but I think UConn will improve more over the course of the year. More high ceiling talent. Doesn't mean they'll be better than Duke by season's end but they'll improve more.

** UConn, as a team, even after today is still a 70% FT team. Unexplainable today...

[Edited on November 27, 2009 at 7:18 PM. Reason : x]

you know UCONN did something wrong if LANCE THOMAS got a career high in rebounds

11/27/2009 8:40:18 PM

11/28/2009 12:22:41 AM

sad sad year for the ACC

11/29/2009 7:24:38 PM

wolf pack takes the lead!

and loses it

11/29/2009 7:50:06 PM

it would be pretty awesome if the Holes lost to the Wolfpack / Wolf Pack on two straight days

11/29/2009 7:53:25 PM

back on top!

11/29/2009 7:58:45 PM

i just saw the highlight during the fsu game and immediately knew this would already be here

this will have its own thread soon if it keeps up i'm sure
