2022-23 NCAA Men's Basketball Thread

[MU Fan in Connecticut]

The shoe has dropped.  5 level one violations = one less scholarship for a single year and a $5,000.00 fine.  How will Arizona's program ever survive?  Incredibly well done by the NCAA.

Where does Will Wade coach next?

Northern Arizona U goes on probation though?

(3-6)Stanford leads (2-9)UWGB 42-19 at halftime. Keeps getting worse for them.

To be fair, the Lopez twins are a handful.

Will Ryan has killed that program.

With a competent coach, it will rise like a phoenix from the ashes.

But are the ladies in GB happy and satisfied? I bet they are with a Coach Ryan in town. <in my best Ron Burgundy voice>

Treating it like an AutoZone.

Over the last 10 years we have been one or two scholarship players less for quite a few years.

Ian Eagle and Jim Spenarkle has always been my favorite broadcast crew. Spero Dedes is right great with Spenarkle as well.

College refs have absolutely no clue how to call the block/charge. Gonzaga guy steps in to try to take a charge as a Bama player is taking off for a dunk, the Gonzaga guy realizes he’s not really going to get the charge so he just stays up and kind of backs away based in the impact of the contact, doesn’t fall to the ground at all…and gets a charge call.

This draft class is absolutely stacked. Obviously Wemby is incredible. Scoot is awesome as well. But I’m seeing a mock draft that has Brandon Miller at TEN. If my team gets him at ten, my goodness I am happy.

The end of season tanking will be wild

Nate Oats with a great Wimp Sanderson homage.

I’ve seen him top 7 mostly.  But I’ve also seen mocks with Gradey Dick in the top 10.  He’s a great player, but I’d be real pissed if I had a lottery pick, missed out on guys like Wemby and Scoot and Miller, to get Great Plains Kevin Heuter

Yeah that’d be a tough pill to swallow if you wind up with Grady Dick when Brandon Miller is going 2 or 3 spots above.

Why you dogging Kevin Huerter? Hes playing pretty well. Many others from that draft class above Hierter could have been used.  Kevin Knox comes to mind.

Unfortunately, it didn't stop Bama from committing 20+ turnovers.

Any bigger early season disappointments than Creighton and Indiana?  I was ready to say Gonzaga, but they seem to have righted the ship.

Any bigger early season disappointments than Creighton and Indiana?  I was ready to say Gonzaga, but they seem to have righted the ship.

Is Indiana really that big of a disappointment?  They have 2 losses to top 10 teams and a nice win over UNC.  The Rutgers loss is bad, but nowhere near the Creighton slump.

Same with Gonzaga, this wasn’t a title contending Gonzaga team, regardless of ranking, but all their losses are top 10 teams as well.  Plus a really nice UK win.

I don’t even know if the Rutgers loss is that bad

It’s not all that terrible, it’s just a loss by double digits to a lesser team when you’re ranked in the top 10.

But we all know what a b***h the RAC can be

[mugrad_89]

Indiana wasn’t competitive in any of the 3 losses, which should not happen to a top-10 level team.  And the win over Carolina was nice, but they aren’t even ranked right now.

I’m not saying Indiana is a great team.  I’m just saying the loss to Rutgers isn’t that bad.  They have the 3rd best defense in KenPom

[tower912]

Indiana is missing a Dynamic PG and the best they had probably broke his foot today.
