Holy poo poo.

Anyway, here's something to laugh at in a year from now: http://www.sbnation.com/college-basketball/2016/4/5/11362474/2016-2017-college-basketball-early-ranking-top-25-villanova-kentucky-duke

Pretty much the only recruits in the Top 20 not signed with Duke a team yet are Josh Jackson and Terrance Ferguson, so there's the drama. I don't think anyone knows who's taking over at Tulane/Valparaiso/Georgia Tech yet. And tonight Connecticut wins yet another women's basketball title.

A Huffington Post article the other day tried to make Geno and UConn out as martyrs because no one was saying Villanova's forty-point win was ruining the men's game and :psyboom:

Pretty sure Diallo got not enough playing time because he got hosed by the NCAA and by the time he was reinstated, KU was in conference games and didn't have a lot of time to develop him in-game without risking a critical loss. Painting it just as him being raw seems a bit unfair. Also, what the gently caress is RR?

Weirdness today in Raleigh: NC State assistant Bobby Lutz seemed on the verge of joining Pastner's staff at Georgia Tech, which would make some sense as Lutz is a good X-and-O guy and Pastner is...not.

But right after that story circulated there was another one saying that Lutz was moving on from the basketball team, but only because he'd been kicked up into administration, where he will now serve as NC State's "Special Assistant to the Deputy Athletic Director for External Operations."

Anyway, looks like State might now try to hire Florida Gulf Coast coach Joe Dooley to be the new main assistant and possible future replacement if Gottfried does well enough to move on to something else. I dunno, whatever. Kinda funny to gently caress over Pastner on like day 1 of his ACC tenure though.

That sounds like serious bullshit since Dooley was already a KU assistant and FGCU got into the tournament last year. Why take anything short of a HC job?

I still don't know how we beat that Kansas team with Wiggins and Embiid at Kansas and it's been like three years

That team overall was kind of bad at shooting. Last year is one of the few years where I've seen Kansas have even a halfway dependable jumper.

Mizzou, unbeknownst to them, had a deal with the devil wherein they would be relentlessly destroyed by Kansas in basketball in exchange for being halfway respectable as a program. And then the SEC came calling.

I hate Tom Izzo because he's a giant dick, but I'm also aware that if he hadn't beaten Michigan like 5000 times I would find him being a giant dick hilarious instead of hating him

Look into your heart and I bet you'll find the same

No, Frank Martin is cool. Frank Haith is a hilarious train wreck, but I don't hate him. Calipari is kinda slimy, but is loyal as hell to his players, and I can totally get why a kid would want to go learn under him, and he has my respect for that.

Meanwhile, I actively believe Gregg Marshall eats children.
