Once again, I love how many Celtics fans there are in arenas on the road. The comment about it being all Celtics free throws when they had only taken 8 at the time. Sometimes I think fans do...

Year 3 of the Adrian Autry is coming to a disappointing end and a look at the numbers shows that this year’s team has improved in some areas, while stepping […]
It started off with Northwestern falling behind by 11 just over 10 minutes into the game. It started off with a horrific defensive effort and a stagnant offense. It started off looking like Northwestern would suffer its sixth loss in seven games and fall to second-to-last in the Big Ten standings. But I hope you […]

The ACC continues its season of improvement a year after getting an all time low four bids into the NCAA tournament. Better conference teams mean more opportunities for quality wins (just ask the SEC last year, who got a record 14 teams in including a subpar Oklahoma team). So as teams continue to jockey for […]
With 14 seconds to go at Assembly Hall, Jake West stepped into the biggest moment of his young career.

Bracketology experts are projecting Ole Miss as a 5-seed in the women’s NCAA Tournament just outside the hosting bubble of top 16 teams.

Way back when, Dean Smith seemed to have plateaued as a coach, while an ascendent Mike Kryzewski took Duke to five straight Final Fours, three title games, and two national titles. “Dean must go!“ talk dominated UNC fan discussions, with the occasional flying object in support of arguments totally based in sound logic. In other […]
