How so? He is the woke mob

Wake up!

High Point up 20 late over Radford.

Oakland is up 17 late against UWM

Hopefully MU doesn't draw High Point in March

Kampe is a national treasure.

Purdue is beyond mid

Ace Bailey is legit.  He needs some help with Harper out.

[Shaka Shart]

You do mean I4

Sorry I can't read. I'm sure it was helpful though

There's definitely a flaw in the goaltend rule (end of Penn State/Northwestern).

Northwestern down 2, they have a shot blocked at the rim which is called goaltending on the court, and they immediately make a put back shot which should have tied it. Instead the call is reversed and Northwestern has to take the ball out and they don't score and lose.

It was a pretty obvious block and the only reason it was called a goaltending was so the refs could review it because it can only be reviewed if it's called on the floor. I guess I don't know why it needs to be called on the floor for them to review that. Should have been a play on and reviewed next dead ball or change of possession.

Kolek?

In reality, what is Wardle's next stop if he were to "move up"? AAC program? A10? Pac12?

I think high major. Minnesota, Iowa, Butler seem possible. If he went A-10, maybe Loyola if Valentine goes to Michigan State when Izzo retires?

[GoldenEagles03]

Gillespie in early foul trouble for Maryland at Washington. He had a strong game against MU.

Purdue looked pretty bad for about 30 minutes but then pulled away at Minnesota.

[PGsHeroes32]

That gopher team is horrific. For about 27 minutes of that game Purdue woulda been down double digits at minimum to any team with a pulse. The end up winning by 20

Crazy they are just keeping Johnson around just because. Its Stubblefield level inept

Several creative rules interpretations late.  That baseline spin move after.the aforementioned kerfuffle sure looked like a foul to me. If MU was on the wrong end of a no-call like that, there would be unhappiness.

Agreed.

[PGsHeroes32]

Ace Baldwin with quite the stat line tonight

17 pts, he was 1/7 from the floor and 0/4 from 3. 15-16 at the line

only 1 rebound.

Dropped 7 dimes. Stole the ball 5 times. Gave it up 6.

[GoldenEagles03]

Maryland down 3 at the Under 4.

Queen has 3 points and Gillespie has 1.

[MuggsyB]

Queen has 3 points and Gillespie has 1.

Damn.

Wow....Illinois 109 pts?

[Uncle Rico]

St. Thomas goes into North Dakota State and steals a big road win.  The Tommies are up to 119 in KenPom, well ahead of Seton Hall who checks in at 146.

They're not a serious program.  Clem Haskins is not walking through that door

BE should swap programs

[Uncle Rico]

BE should swap programs

At least St. Thomas has a goal for their athletic department.  Not sure I can say the same for all Big East members

With Butler's new AD having MU ties I could see them taking a close look at Wardle. He'd be better off staying at Bradley than going to Minnesota, that's a bad job in an increasingly difficult league. Their only sustained success has been purged from the official record books because of a massive academic fraud scandal.

[GoldenEagles03]

Just turned on FS1 thinking maybe there would be a pregame...instead I see that UW beat Iowa 116 to 85? Geez. Ever heard of defense?

🎉🥳 Top 2 in the B1G.

[Uncle Rico]

Wisconsin's win helps Marquette's cause

[GoldenEagles03]

🎉🥳 Top 2 in the B1G.

If they are going to go 21-31 from 3 that might be too light. Lotta mediocre in that league.
