Watching Alabama vs Creighton (SEC network) ... Just mentioned the Gophers vs 'bama 3 on 5 game
Jackson McAndrew, freshman Wayzata, started for Creighton. He hasn't done much tonight, has a 3 pointer.
He finished well, totaled 5 3's, including a 4 pt play, ended up with 16 pts... 0 rebounds

Dreaming of the Sunday February 1978 match-up with Louisville at Williams Arena—after playing Purdue on Saturday. That was a weekend—and a hockey series with Wisconsin.

Once CBJ gets canned yes. He's pretty clearly afraid to schedule anyone good. In Pitino's last non COVID OOC, he scheduled Oklahoma, Butler, DePaul, Utah, Clemson, and Oklahoma State. Not all were at home, but at this point I'll take anything with a pulse.
 



That loss to Wichita State looking more and more pathetic with each passing day. Lose by 20 to DePaul with a first year HC. Lose by 10 at HOME to Kansas City. Good job Ben.
 









There's a Minneapolis native, Terrence Brown, that's leading FDU in scoring at 22.2 ppg and shooting 50% from the field, 6 rebounds and almost 3 assists so he may be looking to show out Saturday. Only a sophomore btw.

he has played in the Pro-am the last couple of summers. He will get some shots up.
I only talked with him a couple of times, mostly to ask where he was going to get an opportunity to play and seemed like a nice kid that just wanted a chance. Good for him that he gets minutes and gets to play back home
 


Why on earth is #6 Alabama in Grand Forks on a Wednesday night in December? Local player on the Tide?

Grant Nelson is from Devil's Lake, ND; about 90 miles west of UND.

“We obviously did it for Grant,” head coach Nate Oats said. “We try to take care of our guys when we can. There’s obviously no big-time, high-major programs up there, but they’ve got some pretty good basketball. North Dakota’s done a good job. I think Coach (Paul) Sather has done a pretty good job. They’ve won a decent amount of games in his years there.


“They helped us out with the game, called us. We’re playing in their arena, so I’m sure it’ll be packed. I don’t know for sure, but I’m guessing this is the highest-ranked team they’ve had coming into that arena. It’ll be good. We obviously did it to get Grant playing back close to family. Hopefully a lot of Grant’s family and friends and people he went to school with … will be there and we’ll get a decent crowd for us and for him.”

We didn’t want T Brown here at the U?
 




Oklahoma beats Michigan 87-86. Oklahoma with a 4 point play inside 15 seconds left.

Treysen Eaglestaff certainly would be starting for us.

If he decides to go the free agent route next season, he just made himself a whole bunch of money. 💰 💵 💰.

It's purely hypothetical. I'm not sure Ben would recruit a guy who makes 76 percent of his free throws.

Classy move by both sides
 


Down 3, Oklahoma gets a 4 point play to beat Michigan. Crazy.
