Kentucky won by a large margin yesterday. Patterson and Crawford were ripping it up. I've got to agree with Ghetto too about Dominic James. Personally, I think not only is he not NBA material but he's just flat out not that good. After his sophomore campaign, ESPN decided they wanted to start comparing him to Dwayne Wade. Those comparisons definitely wore off quickly. The guy misses so many shots and he's regressed an incredibly.

Canadian guard Devoe Joseph chose to go with the maroon and gold of da Minnesota Gophers! God damn do I love Tubby Smith...I mean, this recruiting class of 08 that he's put together is just fantastic and he's already showing that he can put together wins with the bunch of scrubs he inherited from Daniel Monson's tenure.

What happened to Jason Bennett on KSU? I know he was 7'3 and he had potential.

Umn as I said a week ago, Mason would dominate Kansas State, and they did, Will Thomas and crew are bound for another tourny run.

Wow I knew our class was really good but 12th in the country? Tubby Smith is the man.

And there is a vast difference between Dominic James and Jameer Nelson.

that was before we got devoe joseph. now they're saying that we are top 10 at the least.

Turtlepower · 11-23-2007, 11:03 AM

ASU has no business winning the PAC-10, but with how young our team is, I would be happy with an NIT birth. Next year is our year (just like I said last year).

derza222 · 11-23-2007, 11:11 AM

George Mason vs. Villanova should be an interesting game today. Villanova is young, no seniors on the team and 5 of the players are frosh, 2 redshirt and 3 true freshmen. They are fairly talented though. Wouldn't be surprised regardless of the result, but it should be a fun game especially with GMU coming off a top 25 upset last night.

The only similarities between Dominic James and Jameer Nelson are their size and body types

Dominic James will never be an NBA player. Let alone a starting point guard in the NBA.

I'm looking forward to Texas A&M and OSU tonight.

Me too. I want to see DeAndre Jordan and how the hell he is shooting 90 percent from the field. And OSU has really surprised me, they are playing very well right now despite losing basically their whole team. They just dominated a very talented Syracuse team last night. Kostas Koufus is a baller.

Yea, this team isn't doing anything this year, but they already have 2 5 star recruits coming in next year (1 more seriously considering) added to this class and this could be a very very good team soon.

It's not hard to make 90% of your dunks

Anyone else think Michael Beasley is the best player in college right now? he's leading the nation with 30 points a game and a ridiculous 17 rebounds a game.

Too bad he couldn't help his team beat George Mason. Give me a well rounded player who helps his team win over a stat inflated player on a mediocre team

If you're gonna sit here and tell me he's not a well rounded player who helps his team win, you're insane. Take away his 30 points and 17 rebounds, Kansas State is 1-3.. But because he's there, they are 3-1. Not to mention, he's an excellent defender.

SuperKevin · 11-23-2007, 09:25 PM

Kansas State barely beats UCF in OT. They sure look like a top 25 team

SeanTaylorRIP · 11-23-2007, 09:38 PM

I honestly like Deandre Jordan much better as a prospect than Greg Oden. Oden obviously has an NBA body but he is a lot more maximized than people realize. He will make refinements but is a pretty close to finished product. 15+12 guy in the NBA but not that superstar people expect him to be. Jordan has so much room to be a monster. His body needs work but he has the body that when he fills out will be so impressive. What I like about him is that he has so much more natural feel than Oden, Oden is so cerebral, while Jordan feels through games. I think Jordan can be a dominant force in the NBA, just give him some time.

BigJohn98 · 11-23-2007, 09:42 PM

WOO. FSU beats Florida in Gainesville. Now it's the football team's turn...

SuperKevin · 11-23-2007, 10:05 PM

Anyone planning on watching the UNC game tonight?
