Nice to see Gene Keady back at Purdue. He even had a segment as a guest analyst on ESPN alongside former assistant Steve Lavin and Brett Massburger.
You know the expression "among the trees" when a player drives in the lane occupied by taller forwards/centers. Well this sentence takes a whole new meaning at Stanford where the lane is occupied by two 7-footers, the Lopez Twins, and Stanford's mascot is The Cardinal (a tree).
Outsmarting the smarties: Josh Heytvelt. As he was walking towards the bench after he fouled out of the game at Stanford, the Stanford fans were showering him with the "left, right, left, right" chant. Heytvelt smiled and pointed at the scoreboard!.
Coach Speak: "Chasing two rabbits" used by Kelvin Sampson
Seventeen is a bad number when it comes to winning streaks this season. Wisconsin lost theirs at 17, just like Clemson and Florida. Florida is the new frontrunner with 12 wins in a row, chased by a couple of mid-majors.
So much for Bob Knight not caring for the all time winningest coaching record!. He framed his game plan for the New Mexico game and presented it to Rick Barnes to thank him for not letting Kevin Durant score 50 on his Red Raiders :-)
37 days til Selection Sunday. Before you know it we will be crowning the next national champion! In order words, it's just five Sundays after this Sunday... It's awesome baby! It's unbelievable!
The Silver Fox is sliding. Game mismanagement by the coaching staff at Arizona. With the team being down the whole game, someone from the coaching staff or the players should have noted that the team only had four fouls, so the strategy to start fouling with 11 seconds failed... Lute is so stingy with time-outs while Ben Howland uses them almost as fast as Pete Gillan. The difference is that Howland uses them when his team is doing well.
