Posted by Christian Mengel under College Basketball (No Respond)

#14 Missouri) This team could be a huge surprise from nowhere, or a huge bust and fall off. The least likely thing that could happen is for them to stay right around where they are now all season. Coach Haith has already proven what he’s capable of when the right guys are put together. At [...]

#3 Kentucky) This team is not the same Kentucky team as last year, obviously. That team was a freak of nature and you don’t get that caliber of talent, chemistry and youth very often in any sport, let alone back to back seasons for the same team. The kids coach Calipari has now were some [...]

One and Done

Posted by Kyle Inman under College Basketball, NBA (No Respond)

The one and done rule in college basketball is one of the most talked about and controversial topics.  NBA commissioner David Stern is in favor of a rule that makes players stay in college for three years.  It would be great for the quality of play in college basketball, but really some guys have no [...]

Teague’s stock soars

Posted by Kyle Inman under College Basketball (No Respond)

The point guards that Calipari has had in the last five years set the bar high for Marquis Teague.  Coach Calipari has had guards like Derrick Rose, Tyreke Evans, John Wall, and Brandon Knight, but none of them were ever able to hang a National Championship banner.
