All you can eat Fridays

I am breaking my record in posts today! Here is the weekly "All You Can Eat Fridays" post...

The Incoherent Segment

  • It was refreshing to see the Tom Penders weave. Weave action and hoisting random three-pointers while the defense is dazed and confused by all the weave action
  • Arizona looked a lot different on paper last summer. 10+ talented players, all figuring to be part of the rotation (similar to North Carolina, but not as talented). Fast-forward to right now, Arizona is really a five-man rotation, with three spot-up duty backups (Dillon, Brielmaier, Hill). Absent are JP Prince (transfer), Nic Wise (currently unknown), Kirk Walters (injury). Tangara and Onobun make occasional guest appearances.
  • Heard on TV: Greg Oden and the Odenettes! (I forgot who said it)


    The Negativity Segment
  • A correction for the all-knowning Billy Packer: The 2005 North Carolina championship team lost to Santa Clara, not Saint Mary's in November 2004. Mark it down, Billy Packer was wrong, during the Virginia at North Carolina broadcast
  • CJ Giles may have saved Jay John from the hot seat. Who else can get a McDonalds All-American at Corvalis? Even a "broken" one. Ouch!
  • A tape-delayed congratulations to Cal Tech for losing their ... losing streak.
  • Truthiness segment: I can't help but feel that Aaron Gray is over-rated :)


    Funniest TV analysts - in my opinion, not a scientific study
    1. The trio of Bill Raftery, Sean McDonough, and Jay Bilas (ESPN)
    2. Marques Johnson (FSN)
    3. Bill Raftery (ESPN, CBS)
    4. Pete Gillan (or Gillen?) (CSTV)
