It isn't the first sign of adversity, dickfvck. It is a decade of science. If they prove me wrong, I will eat that crow proudly. I haven't bailed on the team, but I have bailed on the current atmosphere of college basketball.

What a pathetic excuse. You hide behind a history but you're the first to criticize the program when adversity presents itself. We see ya man.
Ah, so it’s Bruce Pearl’s johnson you think about while doing the deed? Hadn’t considered it, but I guess it makes sense.

Go back to the women's thread, bitch.
You brought the dude in the relationship. Evidently you need more than one hole filled at a time.
Our women advanced like your men, albeit without help from an injury. Our ladies earned it.
She and I tried to make a man of you, but nothing seems to get your mind off sweaty Jew balls bouncing in your face.
And you're anti-semetic?!?!? Jesus man. Ok I don't know you, prank caller!!
I'm really hoping for great games the next two days.
I'ts easy to watch with no vested interest.

Is that what you tell yourself? That it would be anti-Semitic to not put Pearl’s balls in your mouth?
Why would you force Jewish balls into a Protestant's mouth? That's some awfully aggressive recruiting tactics for Judaism.
Duke got pretty damn lucky Shead got hurt. Now a rematch of the ACC quarterfinal with a trip to the FF on the line. What kind of bizzaro shit is this?
Purdue keeps rolling, it won’t surprise me if the UVA story happens again.

NC State is the first game that I’ve felt good about Duke in, which means State wins by 20.
Damnit, the games are so early on Sunday, I might miss the Purdue vs Tennessee game.
One can hope, but IMO the toughest game is next before the championship game.
Man, my thoughts really seem to have gone balls deep in you. I apologize for fvcking you up so badly.
I think it's kind of obvious now, the committee gave the MWC too much credit.
If I was in charge of the selection committee, CSU and Boise would have been out. Michigan State and Mississippi State would have been out as well. Sparty was 19-14 and .500 in the Big Ten. Go enjoy the NIT guys. Miss State had a losing conference record. None of the conferences are good enough to let that slide IMO.
Take those 4 out and include Seton Hall, Indiana State, Pittsburgh and Wake Forest. Providence and St. John's would have gotten serious consideration but you have to leave someone out.

Let's be honest. Duke did not beat the second best team in the country last night.
Once Shead went down, Houston immediately became an 8 to 10 seed, not a top 2 team.
Houston rolls if Shead plays. It is what it is. Houston was an absolute shell of itself when he went down early in the first half. And was only a 3 pt win for Duke.
The issue with this is, the teams you’re trying to say should have been in the tournament, had bigger warts than the teams you’re saying should have been out.
Now, I have had an issue with Michigan State getting in, simply because they had 13 losses and only a couple good wins, but their resume was still better than Wake, Pitt, Providence, SH and ISU. Boise and CSU also had better resume's. The MWC was damn good this year.
If you want to swap someone out, it would be Virginia for ISU, but that's it. You can't just look at the warts of those in the the tournament and ignore the warts of the ones you thought should be in.
Wake was on the right side of the bubble after beating duke, but then they proceeded to lose games to a couple of the worst teams in the ACC. Meanwhile, Mississippi State destroyed Tennessee in the SECT, which was their 2nd win over the vols.
There's a reason Lunardi only missed on one team, he didn't have UVA in, he had ISU and that’s really the only argument that can be made.
I was pretty impressed with Duke's physicality last night. I think the game still would have come down to the wire, but yeah, losing Shead was a big blow to Houston. I do think Cryer did a decent job of taking over at the pg spot.
What does that have to do with this game? Every tourney game is different. Houston wins with Shead, Duke got lucky.
What's the old adage...would rather be lucky than good....
Yep, Duke was super physical.
Duke would have lost if Shead played. You take away a 20 point performer, there best player, an All-American, and a top 5 player in the country, it ain't gonna go well for that team. And Duke only won by 3. Pretty confident Houston wins comfortably with Shead, especially with how they were dominating Duke in the first half before he went out.
Both statements are true.
Too bad Goehlke didn't get hurt for Oakland, maybe Cal would have actually gotten outta the first weekend for a change haha.
Nope. 6 MWC teams in the dance was ridiculous and I said that before a single game was played.
Sparty had an NIT resume. Too many losses not enough wins. Miss State had too many conference losses. A win in the conference tournament doesn't undo that.
UVA had 23 wins (13-7 in the ACC) and finished 3rd in the conference. I'm fine with them making it, even though they laid an egg in the tournament.
