2023-2024 College Basketball Thread

[MU82]

After losing at home to arguably the worst D1 basketball program of the last half-century, I guess we should hold off on crowning Northwestern's azz and putting up a statue of Chris Collins.

So STU > CSU > NW > PU > MU

Marquette is worse than the team that's worse than the team that's worse than the team that lost to STU.

Muggy's right, better throw in the towel.

[PointWarrior]

Where does Radford fit in the equation - then we will know for sure...

I saw on Twitter, I forget which account, that it's Mick Cronin's job if he wants it. The same account said Tang from K-State would be considered an option if Cronin declines. Although I think a guy who was an assistant for 20 years will show more loyalty than bailing after 2 at K St

Why would Cronin leave UCLA, now that they'll be in the B1G next season? I'm sure UCLA would match L'ville if it was just money.

Louisville will be a significantly better job next year.  UCLA will get lost in the quagmire the Big Ten is about to become and the travel is going to be brutal no matter how nice it is versus regular Joe's traveling.

IU up 11 on Kansas.  Wow. 

[MarquetteMike1977]

Texas up 12 on LSU

IU up 11 on Kansas.  Wow.

Kansas's first true road game of the year.   Assembly Hall is rough.

[MuggsyB]

Texas up 12 on LSU

LSU is bad.  And I mean really, really, bad. 

[MuggsyB]

Kansas's first true road game of the year.   Assembly Hall is rough.

True but they did lose to Auburn last week by like 30.

[Uncle Rico]

True but they did lose to Auburn last week by like 30.

A + B doesn't equal C

[tower912]

True but they did lose to Auburn last week by like 30.

Yes, Indiana is better at Assembly Hall than they are on a neutral floor in Atlanta.

[Juan Anderson's Mixtape]

Do we want Kansas to win, so our win is as good as possible, or lose to drop behind us?

[Milkshakes]

Providence looking really uninspired. 

[MuggsyB]

Do we want Kansas to win, so our win is as good as possible, or lose to drop behind us?

It's hard to root for Kansas.  I honestly don't know....it's a good question. 

[Uncle Rico]

Root for who you want.  Marquette controls its destiny

[tower912]

Yes, the outcome of this game will have miniscule affect on MU's season.

[MuggsyB]

Baylor not exactly shredding the nets early. 

[CountryRoads]

It's hard to root for Kansas.  I honestly don't know....it's a good question.

We don't need to worry about the Kansas win losing its value. I prefer the teams ranked ahead of us to lose. That's the only way MU will move up.

[MuggsyB]

Fair enough. 

[MuggsyB]

We've just moved up at least one spot.  Although Baylor had no biz being #6. 

[MarquetteMike1977]

Nice 75-71 Kansas win over Indiana
