Does anyone know when seat reassignments will be communicated for this season?

... despite the rumors flying around, Tubby stays, we get C. Joseph and M. Walker, and we go into next year with a top-3 finish in the Big Ten in our sights. That possibility, despite the rumors flying around, seems like it might actually happen.

It is my understanding that literally tens of millions of public funding has been taken away from the U in the past 5 years. For those who are more educated about the financial situation at the U, can you shed some light on what the impact of the broader legislative environment or funding...

Funny analysis from Pat Forde at ESPN. Sorry if it has already been posted... Minnesota (11) Best Case: With a succession of off-court problems behind them, the refocused and confident Gophers surprise Xavier and Pittsburgh to reach the Sweet 16. Spurred by the Tubby Smith Death Stare...

Don't want to look ahead, but will anyways. Between Ralph, Hoff and Devoe, with Nolen and (hopefully Mbakwe) coming back, plus Rodney in year 2, we will have a very solid core of guys. Bring Carter and Iverson off the bench with Cobbs and (hopefully) C. Joseph and we have a really good young...

... that we didn't take care of Indiana or Northwestern on the road, or played a little better against MSU at home to squeak one out. Oh well. I won't live in the past, I won't live in the past...

I saw Joe Coleman on ESPN. Anyone else there?

First game of the season attended last night. Had the opportunity to sit 2 rows behind the bench, and spent most of the night with one eye on the game, and the other eye on the interactions between players and coaches, as well as body language. Below are my observations. Premise is that I am...

Is a real prick but he sure can recruit. Not sure he can coach however so that will be interesting... I agree with others that there are some real questions about the integrity of his methods, but I'm pretty sure the administration at USC doesn't give a rip about what his methods are. For...

Nolen has an incredibly difficult time finishing around the basket. Not sure how many bunnies he missed, but the fact that he can get into the lane whenever he wants (which is generally true) means nothing when he can't finish. Cobbs on the otherhand I thought played a great game. Even though...

Interesting. Coach Hedstrom was a staple in high school basketball locally and has had a lot of success. http://www.startribune.com/sports/preps/81748727.html?elr=KArksLckD8EQDUoaEyqyP4O:DW3ckUiD3aPc:_Yyc:aUUX

Has unbelievable talent. And their style is such that the other squad never has to rest. Amazing athleticism and fitness; specifically with Wall, Bledsoe and Patterson. Those 3 can go forever in that style. Bledsoe will stick around after Wall departs and will be a top-10 pick 2 years from...

Played poorly today. What's going on with him?

A couple of observations: I haven't seen Turner play much, but he is a REALLY good player. I am not sure how his skills will translate to the NBA, but nevertheless he is a great college player. He was clearly the best player on the court, however Matta's system of having him bring it up is a...

He looked like he belonged out there last night. Good to see. If we can land Devoe's bro, we will have solid depth at the guard positions next year with Nolen, Hoff, Devoe, Cobbs, Devoe's bro. I like our chances with those 5 taking turns in a 2 or 3-guard lineup.

Does anyone else find it annoying that Tim Doyle says the same things over and over again during the BTN broadcasts? Specifically I am recalling the comments re: Devoe. If I hear him say "this guy is averaging 15 shots every 30 minutes" or whatever statistic he cites, I'm going to barf. I for...

Before last evening, had not watched a game yet this year due to the commies over at the BTN... So here are some thoughts from afar. Williams - No one thought he would be this good so far. It will be interesting to see him against Butler; I think he will struggle offensively in the 1/2 court...

Makes one start to pay attention to the headlines. Unfortunately, we are not alone. http://sports.espn.go.com/ncf/news/story?id=4647094

Seems like there is an over-abundance of players next year. Even under the assumption that Tubby will continue with a 10+ man rotation, there is still too many bodies to get real minutes. Below is the list of guys that could legitimately figure into the rotation based on what we know today...
