MourningView posted:Nah, Ryan is way worse. Izzo can be irritating but he wouldn't have pulled the poo poo after the game that Bo did, if only because he's a lot more media savy (which I suppose is what happens when you make a deep tournament run EVERY GODDAMN YEAR NO MATTER HOW BAD YOUR TEAM IS WHAT THE gently caress). Izzo would have found a way to blame it on injuries.

Probably Magic posted:What are your thoughts on this hire? Really good. Provides continuity in terms of youth, scheme, coaching tree, and alliteration. He was the first assistant Shaka hired in 09 and was with the team until 2013. Don't know about him as a recruiter but X's and O's wise he has the credentials to step right in and keep the Rams about where they were. It's be dope if he kept Shaka's recruiting class together but I won't be surprised at transfers and decommits. I'd give him about two yeats to develop on that front.

So the officials apparently never saw the angle everyone kept talking about on the out of bounds call according to John Adams (the outgoing head of NCAA officiating).quote:“We never saw, on our monitor, what everybody saw at home, if you can believe that... I saw it after they had left the monitor, and actually thought about, is it in my prerogative to get up, run over to the table, buzz the buzzer, and tell them to come back and look?”

quote:"In today's world you have to adapt to what's happening. Throughout college, there are many kids who don't go even the whole four years because of opportunities, business opportunities that are available, and they're not just athletes. And so if the opportunity arises for a youngster to leave early from school, whether he's an athlete or she's an athlete or not, it's their opportunity to pursue it," Krzyzewski said. "So I think we're living in the dark ages when we say that it should only be done one way." gently caress off Bo Ryan

Paul Zuvella posted:I don't understand this... he is like tops a late, late late 1st rounder. Why go in this year? Because he may not even be eligible to play in the NCAA depending on how that whole deal shakes out, and he was already really unhappy with his role/playing time at KU. He's also the type of guy who should probably get out while he can still live on potential, because if he doesn't get better there are not going to be a lot of people interested in an older 6'7" PF with no offensive skill. The longer he stays the more glaring his flaws will become.

I didn't know anything about Grayson Allen before the game. I was very surprised by the level of his athleticism turning the corner to get to the rim. I didn't realize he had won the McDonald's AA dunk contest.

Adun posted:gently caress off Bo Ryan Like I said earlier, Bo Ryan has recruited guys who were projected to be one and done, he just hasn't done a good job landing them. He's not taking some moral stand, he's just way shittier at recruiting than Coach K. poo poo, lots of people had Dekker pegged as a guy who would jump early before his freshman year, but then he wasn't as good out of the box as a lot of people expected and wound up being a shaky shooter. It's always dumb when people act like Cal or other people are doing something shady by recruiting lots of one and done guys. Those are super talented players who everyone in the country would love to have. The only thing Cal and now Coach K do differently is actually getting a significant number of them to commit on a regular basis. MourningView fucked around with this message at 22:52 on Apr 7, 2015 |

I'm really interested to see how the guys from this Kentucky team fair in the pros, because my gut feeling is that Calipari did a completely poo poo job of coaching this tournament. Their loss may well go down as one of the most inexplicable in tournament history.

Their loss may well go down as one of the most inexplicable in tournament history. Age and experience matter more in basketball than some may think. Most teams that win championships in college and NBA are on the older end of the bell curve.

Their loss may well go down as one of the most inexplicable in tournament history. Wisconsin had just the right amount of advantages to have Kentucky at a disadvantage - Some length for defense, three-point shooting for offense, and slow ball that kept Kentucky from taking advantage of the transition game as much as they could. And it was a close game throughout. It's not that inexplicable. As for Cliff, I have a feeling his parents are pretty broke if they were risking getting caught with the whole loan thing, so I figure it's mainly a money issue. Cliff was getting more time throughout the season leading up to his suspension, but he did get benched pretty quick at the least sign of foul trouble. And he's better off learning the NBA system than being molded by Self into a purely post player when in the pros that's a really bad limited skillset to have for his size.

Notre Dame had no business being in that game either. Really the only game that Kentucky looked good other than the obligatory 1-16 seed demolition was when they were called out by West Virginia. Watching Duke and Kentucky play Wisconsin highlighted the gap in coaching between Kryzewski and Calipari, as I think Wisconsin's game plan was actually pretty dumb. They didn't really shoot very well in either game but they crashed the offensive boards and got a ton of 2nd chance points. Kentucky never adjusted and just did a poor job all game of boxing out, whereas Duke made an adjustment and frankly abused Wisconsin in the second half, even though Okafor barely played and Winslow spent a lot of time on the bench in foul trouble. They were in the double bonus with something like 6 minutes left, and the rest of the game at that point was mostly a formality. Kentucky is certainly a more experienced team than this Duke squad, and I would argue more talented.

Notre Dame was a top 10 team with 2 wins against Duke and had one of the best offenses in the country. E: christ, Notre Dame and Wisconsin were two team that matched up well with Kentucky and all season long Wisconsin was considered a top 3 team with a real chance to knock UK off. Give me a loving break. Kidd-Liggit fucked around with this message at 00:55 on Apr 8, 2015 |

They would be led by (today's version of) Anthony Davis, Michael Kidd-Gilchrist, Darius Miller, Marquis Teague, Terrence Jones, Doron Lamb, and Kyle Wiltjer. Not to mention Sam Malone and Brian Long, the x factors.  Let's say that all of those guys had two solid years experience in the NBA too. That's worth at least 20 games in the Eastern Conference, Atlantic division this year.
