It's pretty clear that Pearl's helter skelter style has run this group of players out of gas. But as he gets his players in there (ie: people in better shape more suited to play the style) they are going to be damn good consistently IMO.

They can run teams out of the gym all they want but until they learn to play better defense they're not going to have a long run in the ncaa's.

ZoomSlowik Posted March 10, 2006 Share Posted March 10, 2006 Forget anything I ever said about NC State making a run. They're about to lose their 4th in a row and their 2nd straight to Wake Forest. They're down 50-28. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a friend thats a Vols insider, and thats exactly what he said. They play 7 players, and they just can't handle the pace all season long. But on the bright side for them, everyone returns next year and they should be a pre-season top 15 team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe one of the two but I think that one of either Hofstra or George Mason deserves to be in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THEWOOD Posted March 10, 2006 Share Posted March 10, 2006 QUOTE(whitesoxfan101 @ Mar 10, 2006 -> 10:05 AM) It's official, NCAA is a joke once again. Ohio State gets a slap on the wrist considering the crimes, a 3 year probation period and a loss of 1 basketball scholarship. Of course, it LOOKS tough, but considering what they did it's very little. No postseason bans, and the 1 scholly loss won't affect the Thad 5. If anybody other than one of the main cash cows did this, it would be a death penalty like punishment. *Sighs* man does the NCAA suck, I just wish everybody was treated the same way. No postseason ban? Do you not remember last year? OSU made a self imposed ban from postseason play..does this not count? They also lose all record of basketball 99-03. They have to take down the final four banner from 99. Explain to me how this is not a good punishment? It was really not OSUs fault that Obrien was a f***ing idiot. Once they found out about what he had done the fired him and took the actions. You can clearly see that the NCAA felt that Obrien and his assistant were the majority of the problem.

THEWOOD Posted March 10, 2006 Share Posted March 10, 2006 QUOTE(Chisoxfn @ Mar 10, 2006 -> 12:01 PM) You know what I just realized. I may be the only person on here that goes to a school that won a national championship whlie they attended said school. I'm guessing maybe a few OSU people went there when they won a National Championship. Just had to say this since Fullerton's cinderalla dream ended last night with a last second loss to arch rival Long Beach State. I was a junior during the year OSU won it in football.

Sounded like no new details, they just said that it's an eye injury. It's either a non-issue or a really serious problem, with the former being a lot more likely. If he is out however, Nova is totally screwed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently it's not nearly as bad as first thought. He's regained his vision and is going to be released from the hospital tonight. No news on his NCAA Tourney playing status yet, but there were Villanova people crying in fear the kid might have been blinded for life in that eye, so the news has been good. This is all per Andy Katz on ESPNEWS about 15 minutes ago btw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel the same way about the Pittsburgh team as a whole, can't stand them. Whether its the showboating, the smack talking/gesturing, or the un-needed 3 point attempt at the end of the game against Villanova. That's one team I will be cheering against, even if it was Duke playing them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whitesoxfan101 Posted March 11, 2006 Share Posted March 11, 2006 Nevada will play Utah State in Reno for the WAC Title tomorrow, and all the bubble teams will root for the Wolfpack. UAB and Memphis, 2 tourney teams, will play for the CUSA title tomorrow and the MAC title game is between Toledo and Kent, and that is only a 1 bid league. Nebraska improve to 19-12 with an upset win over Oklahoma today. Doubtful they have much of a shot at the dance, but hey you never know, they are 2 wins from that auto bid. A&M demolished Colorado, so A&M is in and Colorado is out of the dance. Maryland was smacked in the mouth by Boston College, and they are also just about finished. Long Beach State will take on Pacific for the Big West title tomorrow, and just to be safe, all the bubble teams out there will be big Pacific fans no doubt. San Diego State defeated a game UNLV game 63-60 to advance to the MWC title game. All bubble teams will be rooting for them, as if they win, the MWC is a lock for only 1 bid. SDSU will take on Wyoming, which is an amazing story. Wyoming is 14-17, went 5-11 in league play during the regular season, has a coach that is rumored to be all but fired, and yet is 1 win from the Big Dance. And Pac 10 #1 seed UCLA won today to improve to 26-6 and advance to the title game of the tourney. Oregon with another amazing effort tonight, but loses by inches to Cal in double OT. The Pac 10 looks set with 4 bids: Cal, Arizona, UCLA, Washington. Also, on a side note....Justin Williams of Wyoming with QUITE a triple double.....10 points, 14 rebounds, and 12 BLOCKS....whoa.

whitesoxfan101 Posted March 11, 2006 Share Posted March 11, 2006 Good news for bubble teams: Wake and Oregon both have lost in the last 12 or so hours. Bad news for bubble teams; South Carolina beats Kentucky, and will play the LSU/Florida winner with a shot at an auto bid, taking away somebody's at large IF they can pull off the miracle. To watch later for bubble teams: Nebraska vs. Kansas, the bubble teams want a Kansas win in that one. Wyoming vs. San Diego State, Wyoming is below .500 and SDSU is a potential at large threat if they lose, so go SDSU if your on the bubble. Pacific vs. LBSU, Pacific is another POTENTIAL at large candidate if they lose, so go Pacific if your on the bubble. Nevada vs. Utah State, go Nevada if your on the bubble....they are already in, and Utah State is a bubble team at best if they lose tonight.
