Championship Week Open Thread

Clark lacks toughness? but is DPOY and rebounds like a beast...never complains

Mentally. I have heard Cronin say multiple times that he forgets to box out and has mental lapses. He does not have that mean streak but has 2 years to find it. If Brimah was not hurt he would not have gotten DPOY.

Is Vandy in?

I would have them in because I value advanced metrics a little more than the committee probably does but my guess is they are right on the cut line. They certainly need the other bubble teams (like UConn, Tulsa, etc) to lose.

So Clark would have finished 2nd (in the entire conference)...I'm not sure your point there. He was also second in the conference in rebounding. Both toughness categories.

Would I like to see him continue to be more aggressive on offense? Sure!

Every player has mental lapses at times. I guess Gary being DPOY and 2nd in rebounding tends to have less mental lapses than all the rest of the players in the conference.

This entire forum should just be one gigantic thread. You guys ramble about the same bullshit in every thread. SMH.

On that note,

Is it widely known that bill murray's son is an assistant coach for Xavier?

 

[Bearcat_NTS]

Wow! Michigan wins at the buzzer over Indiana 72-69. Might put them on right side of the bubble.

Seton Hall is scary. They could make a serious run. That SO class is insane.

Hmmm pays off to recruit multiple top 50 recruits, huh? Whitehead was a top 15 recruit and Delgado was top 50. That class was top 15 nationally. Khadeen Carrington wanted to come here too...SMH.


(yes I am derailing my own thread with more recruiting nonsense)

Oh damn, Carrington has been my FanDuel sleeper all year...breaks my heart knowing he could've been a Bearcat.

Michigan vs Indiana- Michigan gets the win they badly needed
Florida vs Texas A&M- Florida is done
George Washington vs St. Joes- GW is done
Davidson vs St. Bonnies- Bonnies in serious trouble
Georgia vs South Carolina- USC sliding towards Dayton

Fringe games:
Tennessee vs LSU- Tigers need to win SEC
Alabama vs Kentucky- Bama done

 

[jacobkdoyle]

Carrington after beating X: "Yeah this is the time of year where it's lose or go home, and I'm not trying to lose."

I feel like Kyle Washington has some of that attitude. Hopefully Caupain, Clark, and Evans are learning as much this year as it seems like they are.

 

[Bearcatmatt]

Wow...WVU game.

 

[jacobkdoyle]

Wow...WVU game.

Weird that Huggins won on that and Cronin lost on it. Perception is reality.

Unfreaking believable. Like this has been one of the wildest days in Champ week history. Wow.

 

[UCalum08]

Weird that Huggins won on that and Cronin lost on it. Perception is reality.

Huggins gets the call and the refs actually made the right call. Meanwhile we are stuck with cheating ass refs who have 1 in UConns pink and 2 in their stink.

 

[Bearcatmatt]

LSU is shooting...less than 18% now.
