Teams like Gonzaga and Memphis better schedule some tough OOC games cuz their competition in league is weak sauce.

Lies.

 

[krisp kicks]

Explain.

Well, the whole conference isn't terrible anymore.

San Diego and St. Mary's both made the tournament, and San Diego even won a game.

 

[krisp kicks]

What I'm saying is throw the Zags or even Memphis into the Big East, Pac 10, even the ACC and they would lose a bunch more games every year.

I'm not implying they would no longer be good teams, but playing quality teams 95% of the time makes league play a lot tougher for schools in powerconferences. For example throw San Diego and St. Mary's (the 2 teams you gave as tournament teams in the WAC) into a real conference, and they would belucky to win 10 games.

?

So you're saying the Big East, Pac 10, and ACC are tougher than Conference USA or the WCC? Really? Tough limb to climb out on...

Obviously they'd lose more games. But those two teams have and will continue to play top-flight OOC schedules, and more than hold their own against them.

haha coach crean is only gunna get us guards ehh?? you must know something i dont??


we cominnnnnnnnnnn

 

[ricardo malta]

^ who y'all got ooc? (duke)
I haven't seen it yet but I'm almost certain it'll consist of a bunch of games on neutral sites like Charlotte or Greensboro, MSGdefinitely, maybe a game in Jersey, and an away game in the ACC/Big 10 challenge. It's the same damn schedule every year.

As far as UConn their full schedule hasn't been released I believe but I know there's a game at Gonzaga and their Big East schedule was released:


HOME BIG EAST GAMES

GEORGETOWN
NOTRE DAME*
PITTSBURGH*
PROVIDENCE
RUTGERS
SETON HALL*
USF
SYRACUSE
VILLANOVA

AWAY BIG EAST GAMES
CINCINNATI
DEPAUL
LOUISVILLE
MARQUETTE
NOTRE DAME*
PITTSBURGH*
ST. JOHN'S
SETON HALL*
WEST VIRGINIA
* - indicates home and home series.

Tell me the last legit big man Crean has had..

It isn't his style.

A) He's never had one

B) He can't develop the 6'8 kids into anything but role players.

His like a current Coach K...only a whole lot worse.

 

[ThaxbyChamblis]

Dar Tucker put up 13.6 ppg despite averaging only 23.6 minutes as a sub.
STUD. Dre, this boy's game might be to your liking..

Who is this kid, and why have I never heard of him until now?

How the hell did he end up at Depaul? Is he a Chicago kid?

Oh yeah.

We gonna smash G-Twon in Cameron......

Yeah. Best believe it will work for them. They will get a top 4 seed in the tourney and they will be fine.

I mean I saw my school do the same thing last year, and they got a 4 seed, even though they were vastly overrated.

�Thanks for the videos. I heard about the dude but never saw him in action. What do you think he will do this year?

 

[ThaxbyChamblis]

Dunk against Syracuse was sick...

It's hard enough to smack off after somebody hits the ball while you're in the air...

This _ dunked it....

 

[seymore cake]

that boi gets up I see... I'ma have to ask Haiti how the hell they landed him

He prolly can't shoot a lick

Yea that situation isn't looking too well for us

 

[allen3xis]

Yeah...this year at Cameron, next year at DC..

I wouldn't worry too much...those guys are a little perimiter orientated right now offensively..(Sims more so)

There greatest addition will be defensively...while they won't be the presence Roy was...they'll be able to hedge out and switch really well. Plusblock shots..

...

Dar Tucker...kid was slept on as a freshmen all year...I believe he's from Michigan..Top 50 recruit the past year....seems to just always getoverlooked....but definitely one of my favorites for the coming year.

He should log 30+ minutes and probably get close to 20 a game.

 

[ThaxbyChamblis]

Yeah.

We playing them early in the year.

Sims and Monroe later in the year will be a much tougher matchup.

 

[allen3xis]

We'll run with you guys...no doubt...

So that should be interesting.

I don't expect a win...but it should be a good experience for the younger guys.

 

[allen3xis]

Delvon Roe has to have surgery again..

 

[allen3xis]

Chase Stanback to UNLV

 

[seymore cake]

Yea it'll be a damn good game unlike the Pitt game... that was just a debacle ({})'s got lucky
