    Double double doubles

    To your point, the arena environment did not help. The Noblesville arena is new, but low attendance made it a very cold environment. Game was not close from mid 3rd quarter, teams were playing back to back, so that did not help either. Great seats though, you are right. I was expecting more...

    Double double doubles

    I went to a G League game last year. Only one I ever went. Thought the product was incredibly poor. If you think there's not a ton of defense in 3 of 4 quarters of the NBA regular season, you ain't see nothing yet. What I'm saying is that I believe Nick will score a lot in the G league.

    End of the Prime mystique

    When you’re a parent, you often have an internal debate about whether to push your child toward a certain outcome or not. The challenge is that pushing too hard can come with a risk: potentially affecting the kind of relationship you’ll have with your child for the rest of your life. Good...

    Flow of international players into college programs

    I believe most international students find the curriculum in American universities relatively easy. That is, if they are decent students at home. Having said that, it's not necessarily easy for them to do it. There's the language issue that, even if they have a decent grasp of, still makes it...

    Northwestern adds transfer big Okku Federiko from Drake

    Your comments and his stats are why i can't understand why folks are debating that he played as a 5 but should be a 4. Based on what? Size? If he can't shoot he can't play 4. Modern basketball does not live with both a 4 and a 5 that can't shoot.

    Transfer big man Luke McEldon commits to NU

    I like the pickups so far. They have decent stats, they are experienced. I understand the concerns about mid majors. For every 1 that thrives when transfering to a power conference there's probably 3 or 4 who do not. But we have the money we have. And we need many bodies. Last year we hit...

    I hope Green stays

    I’m one who sees potential in Green.

    State of the program

    In sum, we don’t have money to retain, let alone to attract. I’d be panicking of my fandom was not fading. I feel old, but I don’t like what this has turned into.

    Story: Tre Singleton to the portal

    So, how much are we NOT paying him? We have been pretty insulated from this, with, for example, Barnhizer and Martinelli. But that's, ultimately, the question for 90% of promising guys who enter the portal.

    Where the Roster Stands

    How do Sweet 16 men’s basketball programs compare financially? Purdue fans, now that I am somewhat one, love to praise how Painter does not rely on portal, develps players. Almost like they believe Kauffman-Renn or Smith play for peanuts. What Sweet 16 teams spend Duke $25.247M Illinois...
