High Point playing five on eight it seems. A bit of a head scratcher.

Purdue too much at the end. The Panthers will be a tough opponent in Hickory next season.

McNeese is having their way against Clemson so far. Up 22 in the 2nd half.
Picked up via free agency by the High Country All-Stars

Reading between the lines from Georgia boards… Abson seems gone. Where is the big question.

I'm happy the Wolfpack will get Mcneese's coach next year. Hopefully they can get back to the tournament.

Wofford impressed given the resource disparity. Well coached team.

Being in grad school at UGA, I've defended Abson's decision to transfer to Georgia. I also would understand his decision to transfer out. It's not a perfect comparison because they play different positions, but if you compare the productivity of Blue Cain's 27 minutes a game to Abson's 9 minutes a game, Abson is massively more productive.
Having watched more Georgia basketball this season than ever in my life, I have started seeing the tendencies that led Florida to fire Mike White, despite Georgia having their best season in a long time.

Refs don’t watch feet anymore. Like the NBA.

Game is too quick nowadays. Refs let them get away with pretty much everything. One of the many reasons the NBA is unwatchable.

The game isn't too quick, they just adopted ridiculous rules to accommodate various forms of traveling into the game under the guise of "gathering" before a shot or "Hezi stepping" and other mess. Basically they looked at the AND1 street ball from the 90s and said yea let's do that.

I agree with the dislike for it. I follow the nba but I no longer watch games because they can move 20 feet and never dribble. It's allowed players to put up absurdly gaudy stats.

Norfolk State coach tells the press he’s angry the line at -27.5 for their game against UF.
Said the Spartans deserved more respect than that. And they covered, only getting blown out by 26 pts.

The lead arm of dribbler being used as a shield 🛡️ and then pushing off is my biggest gripe.

If I could referee one game, no one would ever get past half court because no one knows how to dribble without carrying the ball.

If I had the opportunity the ref one game, we would be going retro to 80s and early 90s...you actually have to foul someone to hear my whistle...these phantom fools...you ain't getting that call on my court. I would call a technical on Elliott Cadeau (sp?) for flopping. He may not make through the first half of my ref'ed game.
