    Greenwood, MS question...

    Greenville just declared a state of emergency for violent crimes. Curfew from 9pm -6AM until further notice.

    Greenwood, MS question...

    I have family in Greenville and every time I go see them it’s more and more depressing. Never seen anything like it. Rampant poverty and disregard everywhere. Just a sad sad existence.

    The Case for and Against a Mid-Season Firing...

    If you fire him now it sends a message that MSU is about to get serious again about baseball. It’ll throw the fans a bone and can get some donors invigorated. Keep the path we’re on and we further dig into apathy not just for baseball but as an entire athletic department. It’s the same fans...

    Net rankings comparison

    WAB - wins above bubble. Our current WAB is 4.4 or we have a predictive 4.4 wins over the average bubble team given the same schedule. What’s hurting us are the Prarie View, Butler and Missouri games. Those games were so bad for our metrics they’re making skewing our efficiency numbers, which...

    This loss seems worse than the others in a general way….

    I think Melendez is actually hurt but Kugel was just awful. Nwoko wasn’t much better, he gets abused on the boards. Harris is a generic college basketball player. He’s just out there.

    OT: Favorite Truck Stop/Gas Station

    You’re generally safe taking a dump at most chain gas stations but for food Fastbreak in Starkville is really good and Jordan’s out by the dirt race track between Starkville and Columbus is fantastic. They do fried rib tips that are amazing.

    Predict the remaining SEC schedule...

    We’re the only school in the conference thus far to play @Auburn and @Tennessee both of which were on the quick turnaround Tuesday. Now that Vandy is ranked, 6/8 games in January were vs AP top 25 teams, the only two were both games vs USC with one of those on the the road. We have played as...

    Day one results

    Home court matters. Vandy was the only road win yesterday and only Florida made it close, everything else was a blowout.

    Next MBB Poll

    A&M is the top rebounding team in the country and get to the foul line more than anyone in the SEC. Their style is boring but they’re good at what they do and can be a real matchup problem.

    Article College Basketball Rankings: CBS Sports overhauls Top 25 and 1 after multiple ranked losses - Grant Grubbs

    I don’t either. Their efficiency profiles are good but their schedule is very weak. It’ll be interesting to see them play some real competition in back to back games.

    Where I see basketball...

    At 11 conference wins we’ll be a locked 3 seed with an opportunity to move up to a 2 in the SEC tournament. We already have 3 Q1 wins and to get to 11 wins that would add 6-8 more Q1 wins to our resume. Our NET as of this morning sits at 11. Ken Pom is 17 and Torvik at 20. All of that points...
