I WAS WONDERING WHY WE STARTED LOSING THEN I SAW THE SPIRITUS NOX JINX AND EVEN THE EARLY LEAVING UT FANS (ONLY DOWN 10 WITH 6:30 TO GO) COULDNT UN JINX IT

Fun game but they threw out half of both teams for a really minor scuffle during OT and I think cherry got fouled on the last shot but they didn't call it and I couldn't see it clearly.

It's amazing what they can do with computers these days.

I'm ashamed to admit that I decided to go to bed instead of watching the second half of the ISU game last night. I really didn't want to watch them continue to struggle and then go to bed really angry. Glad they won, hopefully that takes away the ISU jinx that came around in the KSU game.

Huh, I just realized I don't think I've ever even thought about Army or Navy basketball. Have they ever been good? Is it like football where they were really good around WW2?

Navy had David Robinson and actually made the elite eight in 1986!

poo poo how could I forget Robinson? More for his commercials later on but still.

Also looking them up Bob Knight and Mike Krzyzewski started at Army (although neither made the tournament there).

There's also an excellent book by John Feinstein - The Last Amateurs - that is about the Patriot League but goes a fair bit into Army and Navy, specifically the differences between how their teams are run compared to the rest of the Patriot League.

Patriot league owns and army almost made the tournament twice in the past ten years. Its a good amateur league and when you win and make the tournament it actually means something. Army womens made it once recently but then their coach died (pitt coaches sister)

Rhode Island getting crushed by Dayton, which probably seals their NIT fate.

Nothing else to say at this point. This doesn't even look like the same team that smoked Maryland.

I used to think a lot of Indiana fans were being idiots when they called for Crean's head after every loss, but I'm really starting to think a change is needed. Nothing ever changes on the court. It's been the same poo poo game after game.

Isn't there not a lot of talent on this squad this year, though? I'd wait for a better recruiting class to come in before making judgments on how he develops players. Case in point: Barnes is ripe for getting fired.

Iowa is going to finish this season 7-3 in true road games, that's gonna help when it comes to NCAA seeding.

Is this Heaven?
Really big win for Iowa. Indiana isn't great or anything, but getting to 20 should pretty much make them a lock for the tourney. Hopefully they avenge their worst loss of the year game against Northwestern and win at least one game in the BTT, but they should be safe even if that goes wrong. Probably as an 8 or 9 but it'd be really nice to get up to 6 or 7.

Another great game for Aaron White. Probably my favorite Hawkeye since Woolridge, and one of the best players in the history of the program. Hope he makes first team all conference.

Lipscomb edges Northern Kentucky in OT, so the A-Sun gets to avoid that awkward question of who gets the tourney bid if NKU won it all.

Nolan Arenado
May 8, 2009

Lipscomb beat Northern Kentucky. Which is good because Northern Kentucky isn't eligible for the NCAA tournament, and if they would have made the A-Sun championship game, their opponent would have gotten the bid regardless. Which would have been dumb.

edit: multiple posts about a Lipscomb-Northern Kentucky game, wow!

This has been how KU has been playing all year long for the most part. Inability to handle pressure, rebounding incompetence, poor inside game and 2pt shooting, no fast break offense or defense... Pretty much it right there.
