I guess J.R. Reynolds’ hip is feeling better! Talk about lighting it up. It’s amazing how much better Virginia is when he’s hitting shots. Sean Singletary will always be dangerous with the ball – quickness doesn’t come and go – but his effectiveness is limited if the team has no other threat. I mentioned before…

Stephon Curry is the best 12-year-old basketball player I’ve ever seen. I understand now why the big schools missed out on him. They didn’t think to scout the middle school courts at recess. Maryland fell asleep defensively in the first half, maybe not respecting Curry’s babyface, but did what they needed to do in the…

I’m not going to put together any long lists of links to NCAA Tournament info this week. Seriously, you need help finding that stuff? But there are a few sources of info that might just be a bit better than most to help you fill out those brackets. Luke Winn at SI.com has had some…

Calling on in transit Calling on in transit Radio Free Europe, radio … I never knew what that song meant, and I still don’t. Makes no sense to me, but I like it. Likewise, I can’t explain my recent radio frequency, but I like it. I had a great time on Grant Thompson’s Sports Pulse…

Before we get too excited about the upcoming NCAA Tournament, I want to take a quick look back at the ACC Tournament. Despite what many were saying, I don’t think it was really a fantastic tournament. Yes, there were a lot of close games and that made it exciting but close does not always equal…

I had completely forgot about this, but back in 1996 tiny Western Carolina, a 16 seed, nearly knocked off 1-seed Purdue. They had a three at the end to win. It bounced off the back of rim. They got the rebound and put up one more shot for the tie. Off the back rim. So…

If last week’s Internet radio appearance wasn’t enough to slake your Dave-thirst (and I’m sure it wasn’t), then you’ll get another shot on Wednesday. At about 5 (Eastern), I’ll be doing an interview on the new site CampusFans.com. This site is a brand new one founded by Bill Rasmussen, the guy (one of the guys?)…

Random, quick thoughts upon seeing the brackets: Seven teams for the ACC! Very cool for the conference and for Georgia Tech. Seven teams for the ACC could be a trap. Only two, UNC and UVA, are seeded to reach the Sweet Sixteen, and we all know that Virginia isn’t really good enough to warrant a…
