I hope Houston continues to improve and Temple bounces back next year. It's too bad to lose Louisville but we have a handful of solid teams that should do well in the tourney for the next few years.

Temple was in the tournament 6 years in a row until this year. They lost to UT by 1 in OT, and ...

Completely serious, I wouldn't mind seeing SMU go to the Mountain West. I think it's typically a very strong bball conference, down this year, but won't be for long. They also play good football and schools that make more sense geographically. Probably in the minority since it doesn't have UConn ...

Lots of teams in front of us lost. Handle business at home against UCF and we will be moving up in the rankings.


the rankings are rather inelastic now.

it depends on WHO those teams (17, 20, 21, 22) lost to. Ex: if 17 lost to 6, they won't drop. If they lost to unRanked, then yes. Conversely ...

AT THE WATER COOLER: Louisville coach Rick Pitino and his players have decided not to shave their facial hair with a "grow our beards until we lose " approach.

The way the Cardinals (23-4, 12-2) have been ...

both polls have UConn at (26)

We consistently shut down their best player:

INXS was

A lot of fans have clamored about starting cheering traditions at Moody. At the United Center (Chicago Blackhawks), they start cheering at the beginning of the National Anthem and get progressively louder until they are bringing down the house by the end. Not that we necessarily need to do it ...

Still way too many empty red seats last night, sections on the end were worse.

ya'know, it was a Wednesday, and some of those empties were enjoying a cocktail in the bar area...

Question: Ironic that Larry Brown credits June Jones for helping him get the job at SMU , and LB's success points out that the football team has plateaued. How much longer before June's seat starts getting hot?

Cowlishaw: I've felt (and I'm hardly alone on this) that rebuilding SMU's basketball ...

So, these new high school recruits, who paid NOTHING to create the infrastructure (stadiums, college student body, university system) 'deserve' to get paid?

Let them unionize and start their own minor league

The Northwestern players don't want to be paid, they only want the university to pay for the long term costs associated with injuries sustained due to their participation on the team.

If it prevents another disgusting case like TCU refusing to help their player who became a quadriplegic, I'm all ...

you can't pay football players unless you pay ALL female athletes as well -- evenly. This is a non-starter. Title IX prevents any of this.

One theory is that he came out to preempt the real reason why he was about to slide in the draft -- that he is a 255 lbs DT.
