Last year! This is our first down year in some time. They were top 20 preseason. Very frustrating team to watch, they either win by 20 or loose by 20. Still time to turn it around but not looking good.
Lol! Well you can tell how I've kept up with college bball since we've fell off. Best of luck to your orange men this year!

Your team sucking isn't helping us! I was hoping that would be a quality win come March but it's not looking likely at this point. Hoping you turn it around yet this year! Lots of time left. We were 9-9 last year around this point and won 11 of 13 down the stretch.
 
Nothing like giving a team their worst loss in 95 years! Sorry Oklahoma!

I'm starting to get a little more interested now that my Gators are on a little mini roll. I finally got around to watching the Gator/Kentucky game from Saturday last night and it wasn't much of a game...
 
My Illiini have fell apart again this year. All the talent in the world but terrible coaching. Groce just flat out can not get anything out of those kids. Either he does a poor job in recruiting kids with character or he does a poor job coaching them to their potential. I haven't figured out which yet. I think it is time to say goodbye to him. They have a top 10 recruiting class coming in next year and a very good start to their 2019 recruiting class. We might lose a few of them to Groce leaving but I think it is a chance that U of I needs to take. They could be a potential deep tournament team in 2019 if they can keep all of these kids in school and focused.
 
You need a new coach period. There's some talent there, but Groce is plain awful on the sidelines. I can't count how many kids that had UW offers and picked Illinois and ended up doing next to nothing. Aaron Jordan appears to be rotting on your bench. How does that happen to a 4* SG w/ good length?

We've done pretty good w/ IU's leftovers so I can't complain too much. But a lot of the guys we got from Illinois were plan B's.
 
The Cuse is saving my winter. 3 at the buzzer to beat Clemson last night. That makes 5 in a row! Back in the tourney baring a collapse.

Watch out for Syracuse! They've pulled a 180 on the season. I couldn't watch them early in the season, but now they're starting to gel.
 
Cowboys have been on a 5 game winning streak winning on the Road against ZeroU and WV but the streak ended last night with a loss to Baylor. Looks like our new coach though is turning the program around.
Looking forward to March Madness.

The Big 12 is a crazy conference right now. They are all beating each other up and some of them are looking tired. I thought KU looked like hammered dog crap the other night against KSU. No legs, no shot, no rebounding (rebounding indicates hustle to me). That game did confirm how much I like the Wade kid for KSU though. I hope the conference doesn't fall apart in March!
 
Anybody else see that VCU won it's last two games after trailing by 1 point with 0.4 seconds left in the game? Crazy. That inbounds play was fantastic though! Surprised that isn't used a lot more frequently.

Was it the one where they set a screen for the blob and draw a foul before the clock starts?
 
Try watching the rollercoaster of my Mountaineers for frustration. If they go to 7 rank again, I quit, that's no lucky number for them.
