College Basketball Thread 2024-25 Season (General)

[Centerpiece]

Doesn’t really matter, but I highly doubt this just considering where the majority of the respective alumni bases are from originally (northeast vs. NC).

This is true. NJ voted Kamala. NC voted trump. So there it is.

I would not take that bet.

Neither would I.

Regardless, eff d00k!

 

[UNCRx85]

The "Nipple" has a nice ring to it!

 

[DiehardHeelFan]

He’s really, really good, but he got a little cocky and tried to do too much at the end.

Flexed after he got a nice roll on his last bucket only to follow that with two costly TO’s to seal the win for UK.

 

[chrissteel]

F d00k is correct.

And Cal left KY in the cupboard, but little else. The Portal was kind to Kentucky fans.

All of this slobbering over Col. Flagg has already worn thin on the entire country. He’s like the Elon Musk of college basketball world. People have more reasons to hate d00k, as if they needed more reasons….

Did you know he was only 17

Jay Bilas repeat something over and over? And over? And over? That's not his style.

Yo @RockyMtnHoo the Hoos have some dang three point takers and makers this year! Sheesh. They were 12-18 from 3 against Villanova at one point in the game.

Jay is Master of the Obvious, but still one of my favorites.

#6 Purdue in a battle with #15 Marquette

I need to be paid to watch that game.

I used to watch each-and-every game I could.

Games on November 19th? Nope.

It's football season

It's football season

It’s Carolina football season……I started looking at basketball before the James Madison debacle.

You’re a d00k fan…..don’t tell me you go into football season being optimistic.

Twenty or twenty-five seasons ago, the ACC had to lobby the NCAA to change its minimum home attendance standards for a team to be Division I……

The attendance standard was something like 15k…..maybe 18K or 19,999K……

d00k’s attendance was well south of 15K…….well south……sub-11,000……likely sub-10K

d00k got innovative…….the ACC and NCAA didn’t want to punt d00k……so, d00k football survived.

Stay up? I may nap first, so more wake up and watch it. But I want to see the Blue Devils/AZ game at 10:30 (I think) as well, so we’ll see.
