Season starts tonight in tremendous fashion. Champions Classic double header.

#3 Kansas vs #4 Duke
#1 MSU vs #2 Kentucky.


Doesn't get any better than that!


Also the ACC is debuting it's new network by starting the year out with conference games so look for those all week.

Yup.

Sounds like Greg Anthony and Timmy Hardaway offspring are the two best players in the country.

_________________

Cole Anthony is supposed to be legit, possible #1 pick next year.

You sure about Tim Hardaway? I wasn't aware he had another kid in college, let alone someone really good.

_________________

I heard the " expert" say Hardaway and I assumed it was Tim.. thinking it's Penny now.

_________________

I don't think it's either. Think you are misunderstanding what you heard. They are probably talking about how Penny Hardaway landed the top recruiting class in the country.

_________________

kind of a shitty couple of games, but the one standout in the whole thing was Tyrese Maxey of Kentucky. Kid came off the bench and looked really good. Should be starting soon.

_________________

so Greg Anthony's kid, Cole, is legit. Watched him beat Notre Dame by himself last night. Set the record for most points by a UNC freshman in his debut with 34 to go along with 11 boards and 5 assists. He couldn't miss in the 2nd half, put on a shooting display.


Unfortunately his team is pretty bad so not sure he is going to be enough to contend nationally. But he's definitely must see TV.


Looking forward to seeing Georgia next cause they have Anthony Edwards, another guard who is supposed to be must see TV.

Real good game tonight between Purdue and Texas. Texas pulled it out in the end. Purdue seemed to struggle not really having a go to guy. I am sure Painter will have them ready to cause some issues in Big 10 play.

Evansville beats Kentucky. How did that happen? Evansville doesn’t have a single kid from Simeon or Morgan Park.

Their loss.

I'm so sad that I am not in NC today to revel in the school and horror of talk radio over Duke losing at home to the #262 program, Stephen Fucking Austin.

Illinois thread disappeared, they take on Miami tonight..in one hour.. I'm expecting a comfortable win.

_________________

Well, this Illini game sucks.

Illini basketball proving they can suck worse than football. What an embarrassment.

Damn....great comeback....will be just short barring a miracle. Shitty offensive foul call, but that was a bad play anyway.

Let's hope the Illini learn from this. Show up!!!

Good to see they can turn it on, though. Need to hit free throws, too.

Well... damn.

_________________
You know me like that.

Many college basketball insiders are privately saying that the Illini "won" their matchup with Miami. Garrett Belcha, a straight white Lutheran sports personality whose behind-the-scenes reporting twice won him Minnetonka's version of the Pulitzer, remarked that he saw "a Top Ten team on the floor last night, and the Top Ten team I am referring to was not Miami. Just to clarify, the Top Ten team was Illinois." Belcha is not alone. Al Schoendienst, the straight, racially mixed (he's got some Latino in there, and perhaps Native American, but he's white-appearing) editor of NCAA Hoops Alive, agreed, saying that if he still had a vote in the AP Poll, he'd slate the Illini at number five. "Anyone who disagrees with me is an idiot," he says. "Or they just didn't watch the damn game."

5th in the B!G T#N maybe

Ok, Mr. Expert. We don't even know your race or qualifications.

how was that a shitty offensive foul call? The guy on Illinois literally ran the Miami player over. The Miami player clearly had established position. Just a real bone head play by a supposed high draft pick.

_________________

That's me being a homer. It was a shitty play!!! You have a chance to win the game, and that's what you come up with? Still, as the experts I cited above said, this team is kind of amazing.

Real nice win for IU tonight over Florida State to move to 8-0 on the season
