what a goon.

It just shows a total lack of research/awareness of the sport he's covering. Very much from the school of trying to name drop and have people in the industry like him, rather than doing his damn homework. Mike Wilbon-esque

So, Seth Davis is mayfairskatingrink?

Lunardi: MU (10) vs. Gonzaga (7) @ Wichita.  Winner gets Kansas...in Kansas.  Would prefer Detroit, but that leads to #1 Purdue.

Would rather take Purdue on now that we have more height and John has experience. Plus Detroit is a nice neutral location for us and Purdue.

Yeah, these guys don't follow all teams like we follow MU.  Maybe he is still believing the Pre season predictions that many on our Board drank.  I think the Villanova may give us more positive national notice.

[JamilJaeJamailJrJuan]

Give me Texas Tech, Clemson, Auburn, Ohio State Or some other vastly overrated team in the opposite pod.

We're due for a good draw.

Loving that first reply.  As they say, a picture is worth 1,000 words... or in this case, more words than Davis has ever coherently congregated into something remotely resembling remedial intelligence.

It appears that tweet got the reaction it deserved.  But in the end, all that matters to Seth is that it got a reaction.

We got this.

That's the first step, for sure.

Amen.  Worrying about what 1 seed we would run into as a projected 10 seed is...well, a little silly.

Sure, but with 9 days and no basketball, not a ton to talk about.

Seth's one chip off the old block.

+1. More than a little, actually.

Exactly..........Bring on Purdue!!!

Yeah, but after we win the national championship, I like our chances to repeat!

He's not entirely wrong. I love Howard and think he is a phenomenal player, but he does sometimes put up clunkers, which is entirely excusable given his age:

His last eight games are as follows:

American: 10 points
Xavier: 13 points
Gtown: 13 points
Providence: 52 points
Nova: 37 points
Seton Hall: 12 points
Butler: 14 points
DePaul: 7 points.

Well below his season average in 6 of those 8 games. I know points are one, perhaps very small, part of the puzzle in evaluating a player's performance from game to game, but I have to figure that advanced metrics don't look too kindly on those 6 games in which he fell short of his season average (by a decent margin) combined with his sub-par D. And Seth is right regarding his 3-point shooting slump. (Obviously, I'm by no means worried about it.)

That being said, I'm receptive to being schooled.

Let's remember Markus has been both sick and beat up lately.  Let's see how he does with fresh legs (and body).

I know Wojo said he was sick the last game, but what is the "beat up lately"?  Don't recall any injuries.

...he had like 19 stitches in his head

Legs, lower back (see Dickey) too besides being concused.
