Congratulate Chris Beard. We’d all do the same

0 comments by on 4/15/2016

Chris Beard took a job shortly after taking a different job, a week, to be exact. People got really, really mad, which is odd, because in general, “people” would do the same thing. Beard took the head men’s basketball post at UNLV after taking Arkansas Little Rock on a fun NCAA run, punctuated best by […]

5 reasons to Watch Ohio State’s Spring Game on Saturday

0 comments by

There aren’t many college football programs that can set their attendance goal to 100,000 for their annual spring game. That’s the case for Urban Meyer and the Ohio State Buckeyes, as they continue to develop what has now become an Ohio Stadium tradition of filling the seats in April. This year, it’s for a different […]

Satellite Camp Riff Raff will only help Harbaugh in recruiting

0 comments by

Jim Harbaugh is National Lampoon’s Van Wilder. Specifically, he’s Wilder at the dinner party where Tara Reid’s character (Gwen) has to deal with him impromptu showing up when she’s supposed to be enjoying an upper class evening with her stuck up baggish boyfriend and family. In the end, free wheeling, under-dressed, future-less Wilder ends up […]

Prediction: Satellite Camp Ban will be short lived in its current state

0 comments by on 4/12/2016

Jim Harbaugh is angry (rightly so). The social media mob is too (though as per usual, you question if they really know why). Potential recruits are angry (and they should be the angriest). The SEC and ACC are checking the front door peep hole to make sure no one’s gathering in a mob on their […]

NCAA quietly makes a pro-school ruling with new bowl game ban

0 comments by on 4/11/2016

If the NCAA cared at all what folks thought of it, it’d go on the porch with a few cold ones, stare up at the night sky, and re-evaluate its decision making from the past week. It might smile at the end of the bottle that it managed to do one thing right, even if […]

0 comments by on 4/9/2016

  Sometimes you can’t always get what you want in college football. That doesn’t stop you, though, if you’re a coach or program official in the SEC — when the plan all along was to get what you need. That was evident at Friday’s NCAA Division I council meeting, which produced the immediate shutdown of […]

For the entirety of this decade, Stony Brook basketball has been associated with almost. Almost an America East champion. Almost an NCAA qualifier. Almost making history.

What’s the Matter with Kansas? Nothing This Year

0 comments by on 3/13/2016

Stop me if you’ve heard this one before, but heading into the start of the NCAA Tournament, Kansas looks like the best basketball team in the country. This marks the sixth time in the last 10 years that the Jayhawks have landed a No. 1 seed. It’s the second time in that decade-long stretch that […]
