Follow TSS on Twitter @TheStudentSect Former Georgia and then Alabama football player Johnathan Taylor, all 6’4″ of him, recently appeared in court regarding charges of domestic violence and criminal mischief. That, in and of itself is where a horrific story should end. But it doesn’t. Taylor was arrested just over a week ago when his […]

Earlier this offseason we learned Coastal Carolina, a rising FCS power, was installing a brand new artificial turf in their football stadium. Rather than go with a standard green field, Coastal Carolina has taken a page from the Boise State playbook and gone with a non-traditional field color; teal. The work got underway last week and […]

It always seems weird to have a preseason top 25 the day after the national title game, when most of the top college players haven’t announced their NBA intentions, and especially this year when a lot of top recruits have not announced where they’ll be attending school next year. Still, last year’s effort ended up […]

Let’s say you’re a replay zealot, as I am. What’s a replay zealot, first of all? Someone who believes in the more expansive use of replay to correct calls in all sports, someone who thinks that more applications of replay can only be a good thing for sports. A replay zealot would look at the […]

Saul Goodman, Wolverine, and Grayson Allen have so much in common as it is. Tough, overcoming normally unbeatable odds, and now having origin stories. For Goodman it was his time as Slippin’ Jimmy and his struggles to battle his conscience before becoming Walter White’s lawyer. Wolverine’s was filled with worldly travels, motorcycles, and a cycle of women […]

At the end of this endlessly fascinating college basketball season, Wisconsin could not become what Duke became in 1991. That’s because the 2015 version of Duke stood in the Badgers’ way. When the Final Four came to Indianapolis in 1991, Duke took down an unbeaten team in the national semifinals and then won two nights […]

Duke is fresh off toppling Wisconsin 68-63 for the national championship. The Blue Devils were down nine early in the second half. A killer 7-0 run during the final segment (after the under-4 media timeout) put the Blue Devils ahead for good. Here are a few of my immediate takeaways from a great championship game […]

Follow TSS on Twitter @TheStudentSect It was a vapid, cold morning, the type of morning on which you make the same drive every day and can barely remember anything of significance about how you got there. You somehow just end up where you expected to be. Later that night, we would have practice, possibly the […]

While National Player of the Year Frank Kaminsky took the battle, Jahlil Okafor won the war. Kaminsky dominated Okafor much of the night, but Duke did just enough to win the 2015 national championship in a thriller. Kaminsky set the tone early, drawing Okafor out from the basket and controlling him with speed and footwork […]

We captured many of the highlights of the game through our vine and twitter accounts so here’s the collection of highlights that we captured… Duke gets […]

We already touched on the Dan Patrick Show’s new intern Monday, so why not continue the DP Show love. New Texas head basketball coach Shaka Smart was on the show and here’s the video… Here’s what they talked about… – Dan asked Shaka what jobs he turned down – Did they convince you or did […]
No, Bo Ryan, you shouldn’t be surprised at all if Wisconsin ends the Big Ten’s national title drought next April.

The fact that one game in a single-elimination tournament can define legacies is slightly strange, but it’s understandable. In a sport where many coaches average over 20 wins a season and some of them enjoy rather lengthy runs in the NCAA Tournament, there has to be a way to separate the good coaches from the […]

Xavier’s Matt Stainbrook made some fans during the NCAA Tournament with his tenacity on the basketball court. Now he’s having some fun on the Dan Patrick Show…. Stainbrook prepping for the show.
