We have 3 7 footers that we're waiting on getting healthy, but for now it will be small ball. We'll probably loose some games until we can handle the bigs.
BTW: RIP Bobby Knight!

Don't know if you all recall when Bobby told the media about, when he dies, to "bury him upside down".... ![ROFL :rofl](./images/smilies/rolling-on-the-floor-laughing.png)

Re: NCAA men's basketball 2023-24
We let the game get away from us ! Lost by 5 , same score as half time . Too many turnovers 7 by halftime and could not make easy baskets at the rim ! Didn’t score a point last three minutes of game . Will say Marquette is a well seasoned veteran team good reason why rated 4 in rankings . Dan

Re: NCAA men's basketball 2023-24
Weirdly, we ran up a 14 point lead and then stopped doing the thing that got us there
![thinking :thinking](./images/smilies/thinking-face.png)
Went ice cold. Big dude on KU unstoppable! Made for a very late night to have to get up at 4

Re: NCAA men's basketball 2023-24
We came back after half time beating Valparaiso 87-64 . Coach Powell showed his four years as assistant coach at Gonzaga with uptempo game . We had no answer for Stafford first half but shut him down second half . This will be a team to watch in years to come . We had too many fouls first half and Hawkins was out with illness , and too many attempts at three pointers . Locker room at halftime was a little heated !

Re: NCAA men's basketball 2023-24
Carolina played the best basketball tonight, that I've saw them play since year before last
They really lit it up in the 1st half vs Tennessee
And went on to win 100-92
.....now I find myself watching Duke play Arkansas at Arkansas!
This SEC vs ACC is fascinating....I love it!
