I'm not big on UNC this year, I probably wouldn't have them ranked but it's close. Texas Tech is a wildcard for me. A lot of moving pieces but they certainly have the talent to be a top 25 team. I don't have any huge issues with the AP Top 25 either.

Good thing Brownell got another extension. Was starting to be concerned Clemson may actually receive a vote or two.

They should only get to play basketball in a community YMCA Belly Buster League pick up game.

I enjoyed their program. I was able to watch a couple games at Cole when Dixon was playing there and it was pretty awesome. Their new arena sucks though, having been to some games there as well. Now they own the Gophers, so fuck em.

I remember Juan Dixon playing against UVA when I was younger. That was a fun Maryland team to watch.

A few years ago I was at the Coppin State/Oregon basketball game and they announced Juan Dixon was Coppin State's coach. I was like "Wait, is it that Juan Dixon?" Turns out it was.

I think he's been at Coppin State since 2017. He used to coach women's basketball at a small school somewhere near DC.

Maryland fans are infamous for throwing batteries at opposing fans, chant things like "I fucked JJ Reddick's sister" and "LOL, Skip Prosser is dead" They are uncivilized animals. Vol Nation's shitfest on Saturday would be called just another Tuesday in College Park.

10 year old me rooting for Maryland to win the natty in 2002 is without a doubt the dumbest thing I have ever done. I'm not religious, but I have to go to church every Sunday just so i can get some type of forgiveness from somebody for being such a dummy as a kid.
