Outspoken Buffalo coach Nate Oats has not restrained his comments since his team took down Arizona. Following the first round win, he made this remark about John Calipari:

“Calipari’s been whining about no experience, young, young, young, we don’t have that problem.”

When a reporter read that quote to Calipari during today’s press conference, he cut off the reporter before he could finish talking.

“Who said that?”

After the quip, Calipari cooled down and responded to the opposing head coach.

“I don’t know if it’s whining or I’m telling the truth. I’m not whining about it. I got a pretty good team, but I am telling the truth. He shouldn’t tell the truth. He should not even say it. Introduce them and don’t give their year. That’s fine. At the end of the day we gotta play basketball game. Everybody’s gotta get in the ring and play.”

It’s on, boys.

Yeah, this 8th Region assistant coach lookin' SOB should definitely be sniping at Cal. Keep doing it, though; Cal usually succumbs easily to personal and professional potshots.

- Had drinks with Willy today and I can speak from a position of knowledge that he’s still as fat and obnoxious as ever.

- Shocking Buffalo’s coach is a loudmouth prick.

- I’m still pissed some of y’all doubted my dude/my guy Cal and my program. Its cool. Lets bow up.

We should want to run I would think. Trying to force an uptempo team to slow down is good strategy when you are extremely effiecient on offense.

We are not, but we a damn good at attacking the rim, which they can’t stop, and we are superior on defense compared to what they saw from Arizona so matching their uptempo could play in our favor big time.

The only thing I saw that I do not want to see tomorrow is their 6’7 post players attacking the rim like they did to Ayton. That could lead to foul trouble if #2 is not playing which also leads to Richards playing more limiting any game plan we would want to have.

Trying to provoke John Vincent Calipari into a ****-talking contest when you've got a scrub squad and you're a heavy underdog in March?

Cal might even put on a tie tomorrow.

Dumb motherf***er.

The pod system keeps teams closer to home.

Kentucky-Buffalo in Boise

Auburn-Charleston in San Diego

:rolleyes:

The pod system isn't what they primarily used to seed the tournament, it was the S-curve and that tries to ensure the overall #1 gets the lowest 2, the highest 3, the lowest 4, highest 5 in their region and so on.

For example, we were ranked 17th on the seed rankings (highest 5) and Arizona 16th (lowest 4) and paired with the overall #1. That's why teams (other than the 1's) weren't necessarily kept close to home.

Wow, put that media rep that Mike Davis was talking to as he got T’d up on suicide watch. Ol’ boy has a dome with that “painted on” hair “felt/fuzz” with an absurd hairline and he just got a good two minutes of national airtime... And the camera is still on him! Poor Kyle.

I was never convinced the SEC was really good this year. The basketball I witnessed watching our games all winter was pretty ******, honestly.

But, if the committee and the media types want to jerk SEC basketball off for once, fine.

Those Jesuit Jimmies at Xavier fancy themselves as Duke-light and are probably viewing Mack as their potential Coach K. I could see them really pressing to beat Louisville’s offer.

Plus some plucky genius architect recently redesigned their lower bowl seating to provide one of the most intimidating home court environments in all of sport. So that will definitely factor in to the equation. Do the players at the YUM center almost have their toes on the court? No? Well they do at that Cintas sardine can.

In summation: Will I get a ring if Xavier brings home the hardware: maybe. Should I: my answer is “yes.” Make it happen, ‘08.
