Big Ten Basketball

Curious to see if that works for Pikell

His foundation has been veteran teams and hard nosed players. Having to elite young talents is quite the vast difference.

We are also seeing this year in NIL that veteran teams are mostly the path to winning. Especially early.

Was thinking the same thing. Reminds me of when Pitt started to get higher rated players in the Dixon era they didn't do as good. Rutgers wasn't that obviously, but you're right the foundation was built on lower rated recruits buying into a system.
 
Rutgers having the 2nd and 3rd best high school recruits in insane. Wtf.

Oh and big win for you boys @Hitman Hart!
with Reid + Monsanto, this could be a legit good team. too bad they won't be full squad until ACC play. Wasted opportunities against LSU (who might be legit horrible), Utah + Georgia.

shame, but it's a big part why i don't care anymore. this sport is going to unrecognizable next year. its gonna suck big time. can we just fast forward to the part where Texas + Bama get pissed off at each other and the SEC splits? same deal with the west coast schools and Ohio State/Michigan/Michigan State
 
Eddey is impossible to stop

If a team plays legit D its a foul. If he shuffles his feet its a foul

Fucking insane.

They're much the same team they were last year but Braden Smith and Edey are improved.

Right matchup on netural court and you can beat them with room to spare

I think UConn matches up well with them, Creighton too, Marquette not so much

There is just zero chance they win 6 games in a row in march. You take Edey off that team and the gophers beat them by 20

Smith is nice, but Kolek would have 20 assists a game throwing it to a cheat code.

There were 3 times that Bama was called for a foul in todays game where the annoucners didnt even hide their confusion. Then on the other end Edey is bodying anyone in the paint. Finally they call him for a foul late and it turns out it was a flagarant on review cause the ogre is hooking and holding.

I know part of it is just being bitter, but when you are 7 fucking 4 and have to exhaust your collegiate eligibility you are clearly flawed. He wouldnt get away with half the shit he does in the NBA
 
hey last time a 1 seed got beat by a 16 seed they won a Natty the next year

Not saying they do and I’m still laughing at that Purdue loss last year in the tourney
 
Called it. We go to Ped State and blow a 18 point 2nd half lead to a team who couldn’t beat a 3-7 bucknell squad like less than 2 weeks ago. So bad.

This Iowa team is fucking awful

This team can't play D OR shoot

At least before when we couldn't play D we would at least make shots lol


Going to be lucky to win 2 or 3 B10 games

I didnt know they were playing today. Just saw the score. O boy.

Home against michigan and getting slaughered is less than ideal
 
Sparty's season is officially on the brink
 
Northwestern remember when you beat Purdue??

Loses a lot of luster when you add a L to Chicago State to the resume.
 
NW drops 27 spots in KenPom with that horrific loss. Unreal. If that's followed up with a loss to DePaul...
