Yeah, he'll be able to write his own paycheck for next year, then he'll get fired after 4 years at whatever BCS conference school picks him up (Tennessee is just one possibility, I think) due to a 63-59 record (30-42 in conference).

It should have been intentional instead. There was an "obvious advantage" that can be interpreted. Two can play at that game.

Depends on the extent to which he's willing to emulate the "successful" coaches. Might take him a while to catch on to the rules of the game.

I don't know about that...if the school/alumni/boosters will get out of his way and let him recruit the kind of players he wants for his program (ala Coach K), he will be successful at any level. If and when they stick their noses in and start whining about "not getting the top quality players" then he will have to turn into a Calipari/Self/Pitino/etc...

Sorry, I'm still a bit jaded after the last two Iowa coaches.

Speaking of your tagline....Heard that one of the Morris twins told a VCU player that the run was over at the pre-game. He was right.

Wow...if that's true, it reminds me of the Seahawks/Packers playoff game a few years back. Went into OT, Seattle wins the toss and Hasselbeck says "We want the ball and we're going to score."

Three plays later he throws an interception that the Pack runs back for a TD...

Sometimes it's better to just keep your damn mouth shut.

Play from the UK/UNC game:



Possible missed travel call...important call/no call since a foul came subsequent to it.

In the chat room, it was discussed whether this is a call we pass on? Should there have been a more patient whistle?

This one is dedicated to BBR. Charge or a flop?

RE: Post 204
It's borderline, I think. He plays through and gets a good shot, but how difficult was the shot due to the contact? I probably pass on it, but I can see situations (game getting rough) where I'd need to get it.

On 205:
Sure looks like an Oscar to me, but the decision seems to have been made before he fell. Maybe he was anticipating something; guessing he'd like to have that back.

I thought this was a good call on the continuation IMO...this is exactly why we don't say "on the floor."

From the UK/UNC game:



The late three point attempt and no call...agree/disagree?

On #207, I have a different question. Why a foul?

Good no-call on #208. Shooter jumped into defender's chest. The defender takes a risk with his hands down, but contact is never made with his arms/hands.

On #205, I was taught that if a player bends his knees and goes pretty much straight down it's a flop!
