Well this thread was merged with another. That was slightly directed towards someone who was calling out OSU for the pre-game stuff.

That said, Holtmann has made it past the round of 32 once as a head coach, never has at OSU and 2 of the 3 losses were against a lower seed in first/second round.

He really hasn't proven enough to be the HC of Kentucky.
Agreed. And I didn't think it was directed at me. No genz-er here taking offense! Lol

I do like him and think he could be that guy in 3-5 years. If it was this year then no. He hasn't done enough.

Somebody asked me a question about Brad Davison? I haven't seen what happened? Anybody know?

I guess he scored 29.

It is weird seeing these kids hustle and scrap like the games mean something and are not just passing time until they get to the NBA.

Offense sure is becoming a lost art in college basketball. I won't list them all in this post, but I've seen so many teams just look incompetent on that end of the court these last couple of days.
San Diego State is the most recent example.

Lmao 18 points in the first half for San Diego State after a miss on the front end of a 1 and 1. No points in the final 9:39 of the half. Jeez, I could roll out of bed and wouldn't look any worse despite how out of shape I am 🤣

3 double digit seeds have already win. Syracuse will make it 4. Rutgers is tied with 3:50 to go and Winthrop is down one at half.

Chaos!!

'Cuse is absolutely shooting the lights out now. SDST cannot figure out the zone whatsoever.

Watching all these teams today after watching our shitshow of a season, it’s evident these dudes just make the game easier for each other and make the right basketball play/pass 90% of the time. Us on the other hand, we make things so difficult, stand out there and dribble dribble dribble, look at a wide open dude but hesitate and don’t pass it. Just dumb **** all the time like that, gotta be “me” ball I guess.

I miss when we made the easy pass and got open shots and made the game easier for each other. Can we go back to that please?

Lol that turn around 3 from the mid court logo to beat the shot clock by Boeheim was insane.

I cant stand Boeheim, but there is a good argument that he is the best Coach in the nation at overachieving in the tourney in regards to what seed Cuse is.

Love the guy, he's not a media guy and can be very abrasive but he defends his players voraciously. He over achieves in the tourney because, unless you are in conference with them, that zone is really hard to figure out over the course of one game.

There goes my dark horse. Damn it San Diego State
Grew up around Syracuse so they are my 2nd favorite team, nice to have at least one team in the tourney. I think they can beat WVU if they shoot well, don't even need to shoot as well as this game just close.

what I like about this tourney so far, as opposed to the entire season for UK, is that we are not hearing a whistle every 30 seconds! Where could we get some of these refs for our games?? I haven't seen a single player foul out today for any team! How refreshing......
