2013-14 NCAA Basketball Season Thread

[PIMking]

so how about that Basketball powerhouse conference in the ACC?

[Displaced Flames fan]

Russ Smith was brutal again last night. Too funny. Never seen a more overrated point guard. The guy has talent, but no brain. Can't make a free throw to save his life (or his team's season) and elects to take an off balance 3 pointer at the end of the game rather than pass to the open Luke "Ice in my veins" Hancock who makes every clutch 3 he takes.

I wouldn't be surprised to see Kentucky win this tournament.

Florida was kicking the tar out of Dayton early in the second half then decided to play dumb. Stupid shots, passes, and play in general.

Hard to argue Florida isn't the best basketball program of the last 8 years or so. Three Final Four's, three other Elite Eights and two National Titles. Pretty damn consistent.

Two years they didn't make it to the tourney either.

It's kind of scary, championship or bust

Billy seems the master of having decent teams when all the other guys are done.

Won two titles with no great teams out there and again is poised when everyone else is having a down year.

He gets a lot of hype but those two years out of the tournament are pretty terrible for a supposedly top level coach.

dude, he's went to the elite 8 4 years in a row....
what about Calipari? dude gets all the top talent and lost in the first round of the NIT last year at a POWER HOUSE basketball school

What Billy D has done is nothing short of amazing, he took a football school and turned a non exsistant basketball program to a perennial top 10 school with okay talent

I think Calipari is an unreal recruiter but not an elite coach at all.

Billy D has his moments but you don't see coach K, Roy Williams, Self etc. spending multiple years in the NIT in a row.

Donovan is a fine coach but doesn't deserve to be included in the top level of coaches in the NCAA.

What Billy had done with a non exsistant program is more impressive than what Self, and Williams have done at basketball powerhouses.

He went to the NIT two years in a row after the two in a row titles. One year they should of been in the big tournement

UConn in the Garden was never going to be fair. They owned that place for years. Only bad news for UConn is Kevin Ollie might be leaving for the NBA mighty quick with how fast he's got them in the Final Four.

[PIMking]

I laughed

Also I got 3 if 4 right in the final four.

I don't understand why March Madness ends 7 days into April.

Damn. I thought we'd get Nantz and Kerr like TBS does. That's too bad. I really like Kerr.
