College Basketball Thread 2024-25 Season (General)

[Centerpiece]

True. It's a damn ACC conspiracy to bring us down! Well played conference. Well played.

Now you know how Dean felt back in the day.
ABC crowd.
Perhaps now it’s ABD?
Either way, still sux the be you!

 

[Centerpiece]

Ouch. #9 Kansas takes a double digit beat down.
Crap, I’d like to play KU again, at our place this time.
I think we take ‘Em and we prolly should have beat them at their place earlier this season.

LOLState goes down again at VaTech

Blew a 15-point second half lead and gave up the victory dunk as time expired.

It was glorious.

Pitt is wearing these jerseys tonight against FSU...



I really want to tell them they have "P" on their jerseys.

They got their once in every 40 years final four run last year and now back to your regularly scheduled programming.

Someone hired the Wolpfack marketing team. Not only does Pitt have P in its jersey, they misspelled “Panthers” in the text.

Yes sir!!!
Playing better of late. Keep stringing those Ws together!

Edit: In my excitement of watching good UNC basketball, I put this in the wrong thread. Sorry.

Wait, what’s your connection to dook’s analytics department?

Personal connection

Personal connection

Can you describe their analytics department in general terms please? How many people, full time, part time, etc?

I would really like to know how carolina's use of technology compares with other schools. Reed Sheppard credited a real-time video shooting analysis tool that he used in practice for helping him shoot over 50% 3FG% last year at kentucky. What technology does carolina employ?

 

[CRHeel94]

I could, but would rather not. Sent you a DM.

Duke is clicking on all cylinders right now (personally, I think its their excellent analytics department ).

And that Miami team is terrible.

Maliq Brown is a big loss. Hopefully it allows the younger guys to continue getting some burn. Lots of funky lineups in their last outing.

There are still several tests left for Duke. The two Carolina games, at Clemson and the game with #19 Illinois. Duke will not go undefeated in the ACC.

 

[uncgriff]

I like the last little upswing that gave them hope just before the floor fell out.

 

[Enigma94]

Even though the quality of basketball wasn't great, the endings of the Moo-VT and SMU-UVA games were so crazy it was still a fun watch.

Brown's a really important part of their rotation, particularly on the defensive end. Gives a chance to get Nbonga some minutes at the 5 and Evans some more minutes in general. Not sure I love their lineup with Cooper at the 5, though it works well against smaller teams. A little adversity is probably a good thing at this stage.

 

[Heelsandeers]

Forgot about that random Illinois game for Duke. That is something

This Clemson team isn't good. I'll believe that one when I see it
