2011-2012 NCAA Basketball Thread

[AsburySkinsFan]

Well we're into the regular season and the only other thread I see is the CAA (Colonial Athletic Association) thread so I figured we'd need a place to talk about all the teams that actually matter in the NCAA this year. And since I started it, I get first dibs....

Kansas who?!
75-65 UK!! Go Big BLUE!!!

Stay classy Coach K
I know a lot of people hate Duke, but Coach K. seems like one of the legit good guys (of course, we all thought the same about Paterno ).
Remember, you can't spell NCAA w/o CAA

Congrats to my boy Coach K, as I said in RT thread

Lotta power conference blood on the floor yesterday: UCLA, LSU, Iowa State, South Carolina, Ariz St all go down. The world is flat.

Last night, Coach K's former players, myself included, were poppin' bottles in the club. That's what winners do.

When's UNC play on ESPN again? I wanna see Barnes and McAdoo (among others).

The refs did their damnedest to get Coach K that victory last night and not **** up the moment with Bob Knight and a bunch of ex-Duke players in attendance. Just a really absurd game. Michigan State made a run at the end and that would've been ****ing amazing if they pulled it out.

They play Wisconsin in the ACC/B1G Challenge at the end of the month

How's McAdoo looking?

[The Evil Genius]

WVU has 7....SEVEN...freshmen on their roster.

It's going to be a tough part of the early year, as evidenced by their collapse yesterday in the second half against Kent St (who, I didn't know - had 10 consecutive 20 win seasons)....

If Huggins can find a shooter or two, they will be their usual tough out for anyone.

[MattFancy]

How's McAdoo looking?

Not much so far, but he hasn't played a whole lot yet. I'm sure Roy will try to ease him into the lineup. He's averaging 5 PPG while only playing 13 minutes per game, so not bad. He definitely had a freshmen type game against MSU though, 4pts, 3rebs, 4 fouls in 17 minutes. Then he looked good against UNc-Asheville, 9 minutes, 6 points, 4 rebs. But I think he'll continue to improve throughout the year and be a beast.

[G.A.C.O.L.B.]

Yeah Barnes started off in similar fashion last year. Both of them are def at the center of my radar as far as the upcoming draft goes.

Both would be great additions to the Wiz that's for sure.

BTW, Asbury and other Kentucky fans: can you please do something about Anthony Davis' unibrow? It's beyond distracting.

Oh I agree! There was no way they were going to let Michigan State back into that game, some of those calls were absurd.

Yeah, if I see him in Lexington, I will tackle him and shave a gap between them, I'll probably get a medal from the governor.
