welcome to the 2019-20 college basketball season. many of the great players you remember from last year have gone on to the NBA or other pursuits (Zion Williamson, for example). however, there are many good players still in college (Luke Maye [citation needed]).

did you know that John Beilein left Michigan for the Cleveland Cavs? at one time i knew it happened, but i forgot about it until just now. i know Buzz Williams left VT but i couldn't remember where he went - turns out it was Texas A&M. who did VT hire to replace Buzz? i dunno, i'm not gonna bother looking that up. some guy named Mike Young. i've never heard of him. one final fun fact is that Tubby Smith is still coaching. he's in his second season at High Point. that may be common knowledge, but i did not know that (or more likely, had forgotten it).

the season starts tomorrow, by the way. markell johnson should wreck a lot of dudes this year.

Really wish Memphis would have had some balls and stuck with their challenge against the NCAA. Instead, they ain't got no balls

^^^ EXACTLY how i feel about college basketball (and was wondering why VT was predicted to finish so low preseason, had completely forgotten about Buzz).

^ agree. would've been great to watch that play out, was rooting for Memphis

man, i had forgotten how bad refs favoring duke could be until i started watching this duke-SFA game tonight. jesus christ it's ridiculous. currently a 32-7 FT differential despite SFA scoring nearly all their points inside.

thats the most incredible open layup i've ever seen. 99 times out of 100, someone heaves that with 2 seconds on the clock.

SFA scored something like a ridiculous 64 points in the paint. They were gonna go to the rim.

Imagine having so much disrespect for Howard that you don't think Michigan is a top 25 team. I still have a lot more teams to watch but Michigan is the most complete team I've seen thus far.

I haven't seen anything so impressive from anyone else besides Kansas. UNC, Arizona, Oregon, Duke, UVA, MSU, Gonzaga all seem to have major holes offensively this year and lack outside shooting from multiple guys.

I also think this is could end up as most parity theres ever been in a college basketball season. I think it will be the year the tournament seeds are thrown upside down.

And actually it's 4-4, there were two games on Monday.

I know UVA’s O has been ass this year. But I’m watching them vs SCar right now and holy shit. They look completely inept offensively. 10+ turnovers in the first half already. SCar is hitting some tough shots against their D, but offense is a reeeeal struggle for UVa.

If you aren't watching this UNC-GT game, you should. It's hilarious. Currently 27-4 at the under 8 timeout in the first half.

[Edited on January 4, 2020 at 6:49 PM. Reason : Nevermind, the refs decided GT needed a fuck ton of fouls and got UNC some points]

I realize UNC has had more important guys miss more time than we have (I’m assuming). And Cole Anthony is really good, so his injury is very significant to them. But we’ve had the following guys miss time due to injury: Markell, Hellems, Bryce, Bates, Andree, Dixon (I know he’s an end of the bench guy but I’ll count him), AJ Taylor (again, he wouldn’t be a regular. But still). And that doesn’t include Seabron being redshirted/ineligible/whatever his situation is and Funderburk missing time with a suspension.

Im not sure what point I’m trying to make. UNC’s injury issues have been significant. But it’s not like they’re the only team working with a depleted roster. Fuck UNC. Fuck Roy. I still never really landed on a real purpose to this post and I don’t care.

Was that the best Duke-UNC game ever?
Where does Jones play at the end of regulation rank in all time college basketball plays?

They ran the NC State play at the end of OT. RIP Charles!

Notre Dame up 26-22 on Virginia at the half. No wonder the ACC is down this year.

There seems to be very little separation between all ACC teams. The difference between the top teams and bottom teams seems to only be ability to finish laser close games. I feel like Louisville, FSU, and Duke are all overrated and anyone could win the ACCT.

TB is the goat. This is what Virginia looks like in a rebuilding year with a lot less talent. Right back in position to win the ACC.

Danny Manning has to be out right?

2014–15 Wake Forest 13–19 5–13 12th
2015–16 Wake Forest 11–20 2–16 13th
2016–17 Wake Forest 19–14 9–9 10th NCAA Division I First Four
2017–18 Wake Forest 11–20 4–14 14th
2018–19 Wake Forest 11–20 4–14
2019-20 Wake Forest 13-18 6-14

Still amazing this got Gaudio fired:

2007–08 Wake Forest 17–13 7–9 T–7th
2008–09 Wake Forest 24–7 11–5 T–2nd NCAA Division I First Round
2009–10 Wake Forest 20–11 9–7 5th NCAA Division I Second Round

Manning for sure should be gone. But he apparently has a huge buyout. So who knows

I thought I read that Gaudio clashed with the administration and it was a personality thing. Might be wrong

https://www.charlotteobserver.com/latest-news/article239954898.html

This was a good article by Andrew Carter about the decline of Wake basketball.

I was wrong, nothing in there about clashing personalities with Gaudio but there is this:

Quote :
"

Gaudio lost his job after three seasons, two of which ended with NCAA tournament appearances. Behind the scenes, though, all was not well. After Wake’s 2009 tournament appearance, a woman accused a Wake Forest player of sexual assault. She went public with her story in 2011, more than a year after Gaudio was fired.

After his departure, two other players he either coached or recruited, or both, found trouble. In the fall of 2010, Tony Woods, a forward, was charged with assault on a female. He later transferred to Oregon. In 2011, J.T. Terrell was charged with DWI after he was found passed out in a running car. He transferred to Southern California."


Maybe some of that contributed to his firing? I dunno.

Manning has an 8-figure buyout.

Wake is going to have to pony up to get rid of him, but at this point it is probably their best bet.

No one actually knows how big Manning's buyout is, but they didn't for him last year and they haven't fired him yet, which means it's big.

No fans at any basketball tourney games. Came down an hour ago. Administrators and families only.

They're looking at moving Regionals and the Final Four to smaller venues.
