You may have seen the headlines that Greg Paulus announced that he is indeed heading to Duke to play basketball. When I saw that, I didn’t bother to read about it, thinking that the troubles at Notre Dame probably helped him make his decision. I was wrong. It turns out that he’s a little sneak.…

You may or may not have noticed, but I’m not being completely loyal this week. Yoni of the College Basketball blog is on vacation this week and asked me to guest blog a bit on his site. Since I have a wandering eye and his site is dead sexy, I said yes. Hey, I’m only…

Tommy Bowden has been going on a firing spree down at Clemson. A quiet, surgical firing spree, not unlike a mob hitman taking out his revenge. First, it was coordinators Mike O’Cain and John Lovett and then coach Thielen Smith. The way he’s gone about, without telling anyone what’s going on, is ruffling some striped…

Edit: I’m a retard. When I orginally wrote this, I completely forgot about USC – Clemson even though the game was going on when I wrote it. I had even just checked the score! So I’m fixing that now. There was an ACC – SEC Challenge today. Of sorts. By pure coincedence, there were four…

Washington State was outscored today by The Naval Academy 42-29. The real problem for the Cougars, is that they were playing basketball against Oklahoma State (who scored 81), while Navy was plaining football against Army. 29 points. That my friends, is pitiful. Actually, I think they’d need to play better to reach pitiful. The halftime…

Texas basketball has a freshman named Mike Williams who was rated among the top 20 recruits in the country last year. Unfortunately, he apparently took some illegal benefits from his AAU coach (who didn’t?) and is being held out by the NCAA. The Longhorns think the NCAA is taking too damn long to deliver a…

You wouldn’t think that UConn coach Jim Calhoun, he of the two national titles, would be learning coaching tips from Virginia’s Pete Gillen, he of the two postseason wins, but apparently he did. Calhoun called a timeout nine seconds into UConn’s win over Florida International. Nine seconds. Rumor has it Gillen was irate and plans…

Well, that was fun, wasn’t it? Other than one egregious example, that ACC kicked the crap out of the Big Ten yet again in the “Challenge.” Other than the one-sidedness of the “challenge,” which really surprised no one (and that says it all), the big shocker was just how badly Wake Forest was beaten. Illinois…

Lost in the hype of the then-impending ACC – Big Ten challenge, I forgot to post about a remarkable game down in south Florida. Or maybe it has something to do with the fact that Miami nearly lost to Wofford at home and then did lose at home to South Carolina State. Not really a…

update: Nevermind. Check this post instead. As I wrote about yesterday, Virginia’s decision not to play in the Champs Sports Bowl, or any other bowl during exams, made a mess of the ACC bowl selections. The Champs Bowl didn’t want Georgia Tech (the only other ACC school they had to pick from and the MPC…
