UT is 1-3 in conference, and not particularly good this year.  As I expected. Would love to have kept Beard.  Not surprisingly, Ole Miss is currently 15-2 on the season with Beard at the helm, after going 12-21 last season.

Rodney should send him 10 percent of his paycheck right after tithing.  A lot easier to Coach when you are handed a final four-caliber team someone else put together.  UT didn’t have much choice giving him a deal but they gave him more money and more years than I thought was necessary.  Still not a ridiculous deal and certainly can afford to buy him out after next season (which may be likely if he doesn’t figure it out).  When you have someone who has coached for many years, their record will tell you who they are.  Then again, I’ve seen some colleges hire guys who have barely ever had a winning season.  Rodney is a nice guy but may be over his head.

Will Wade is a damn good coach and paying kids is legal now.  Someone is going to scoop him up 

 

 

 

Yes he is.  I wouldn’t be surprised if the Tigers wanted him back (although they have been better of late).  Watching McNeese the other night, they may stumble somewhere in conference (because, well basketball) but it won’t be easy.  Tough to beat a team that has the best roster and is the best coached.

The 3rd 7footer is finally eligible. NCAA could've did this months ago.

Horns with a big time win over Baylor at the buzzer on a circus shot by Tyrese Hunter!  They needed that one on the resume, but even more so needed to avoid going 1-4 in Big 12 play

Just glad the HC wont be crying about Horns Down.

Rupp Arena is LOUD! Loudest I've heard Rupp Arena since 2015.

#3 Kansas just lost to West Virginia on the road 91-85. 

[Mr. Buddy Garrity]

Big Z I'm convinced was the missing piece. It's Kentucky vs the field come March barring health.

So embarrassing. And I’m sure the students behind the UCF bench weren’t saying God knows what about their mothers, families, etc. And why anyone would be triggered by a horns down is beyond me anyway.  Who cares?  They are demonstrating why you have the coolest hand gesture in sports.  Most iconic anyway.

He was more concerned about the Horns Down than the horrible loss, that's the thing that made me laugh. Glad for his sake they won today or it would've been one hell of a weekend for all the wrong reasons.

Down goes #7 Dook at home 80-76 to Pitt. Pitt 1st win at Dook since 1979!

[Mr. Buddy Garrity]

#22 Ole Piss seems like it's finally getting exposed in SEC play. #13 Auburn 82-59 win. I haven't looked at Ole Piss non-conference schedule, but I'm willing to bet it was weak. 

 

#1 UConn survives 66-65 over Villanova.

From New Orleans sports columnist Rod Walker: Tulane upsets 10th ranked Memphis 81-79 at home 

 

Green Wave hadn’t beat a ranked team in 24 years. 53 straight losses to ranked teams before today.

 Holy cow!!!! McNeese with an unbelievable dub! Straight miracle! Texas A&M Corpus Christi gotta be sick. McNeese wins it on a rebound and put back at the buzzer. 62–61. Islanders blew an 18 point second half lead.

March will be fun. 

[Mr. Buddy Garrity]

UK at South Carolina tonight, I fully expect Calipari to get ejected for no reason again in that arena. 

[Mr. Buddy Garrity]

SC 33

#6 UK 25 

 

Halftime

 

Cal almost got a tech heading into the locker room. Expected this kind of game. 

[Mr. Buddy Garrity]

This is the worst I've seen UK play all season, they can't play in the halfcourt offensively tonight, credit to SC. 

[Mr. Buddy Garrity]

Down goes another top 10 team on the road to an unranked team: #6 UK loses to South Carolina 79-62. 

[bullets13]

Texas with their second big win in a row.  Follow up a buzzer beater win at home over top-10 Baylor with a 15-point win on the road against OU.  

[bullets13]

Doesn’t get any easier for them.  next two are at #21 byu Saturday and home Vs #4 Houston on Monday 

[Mr. Buddy Garrity]

Iron Bowl on Hardwood is great tonight in Tuscaloosa. 

[Mr. Buddy Garrity]

Unranked Bama beats #8 Auburn 79-75 at home.

That dude should be playing power 5.  If he was 6-9 or 6-10 he would be set for life in the league.
