The *Notre Dame Fighting Irish basketball squad, for a while anyway, is the immediate athletic focus for the school, especially with their realistic aspirations to make it to Detroit for the Final Four this April. Going into this season they carry a 37 game home winning streak, good for second best in the […]
The Sooners come into the season as under-the-radar as you can get while having one of the most talented players in the country on the roster. While Blake Griffin is now a widely known force, soon the country will discover just how good freshman guard Willie Warren is. A 6’4 combo guard, Willie […]
The Spartans are again wickedly athletic, versatile, deep and, yep, a likely good tease as well.
Losing Drew Neitzel won’t be as catastrophic for the Spartans as it would be for quite a few other quality teams in the country. Izzo had some depth to work with last year and that allowed fellow guard Kalin […]
In July I reckoned that because of the Augustin departure, the Longhorns would be invariably forced to spread the offensive touches around a bit, at least more so than they had to last season, possibly making this group a well rounded offensive juggernaut.
They won’t be so jump shot laden and an important reason why will […]
Promising that I would release my selections…

Without the unparalleled presence of Tyler Hansbrough, this year’s UNC squad might just have fallen into the trap of entitlement.

The players could easily look around and see that every one of the starters is back… plus the sixth man, notice that turnover machine Quentin Thomas graduated, feel […]
Let’s backtrack a little and look back on the picks, predictions, prognostications—ah whatever—that I have laid out here so eloquently in the collegefastbreak domain somewhat recently.
In no particular order and in no particular feeling of confidence either:
**** Scoff at it, just get mad at it UofA fans. Your team will lay an egg this […]
What, you thought the Bigfoot shenanigans would go away forever?
And we all thought Favre was starved for some flash.
This year’s Maui Invitational features three of the top teams in the country.
Don’t take this the wrong way, but if Chaminade upsets the Tar Heels, credit is mine.
But for all this poppycock, there does come a sensible […]
The Atlantic Coast Conference has dominated the Big Ten in each of the 9 years of this yearly Challenge. The last two years the ACC has recorded 16 wins versus just 6 losses. The ACC’s total record is 56-30.
The Challenge tips off on the first of December with Wisconsin visiting Virginia Tech.
After the […]
Quasi-uncomfortable and sullenly engrossed waves of spirit engulf me when UNC-Asheville’s 7’7/8 Kenny George is posting up or placing the ball in the hoop.
He’s a tower.
Though sometimes the coach can’t get him out of the game quick enough.
The game’s pace often times leaves George doubled over after just a minute or so. […]
Last season’s leading scorer was Charron Fisher of Niagra. He averaged 27.8 ppg, just beating out VMI’s Reggie Williams (27.7).
Rounding out the top five was Michael Beasley, Lester Hudson (Tennessee-Martin) and Stephen Curry.
DI scoring leaders- DI vs. DI only
With so many returning quality top (*power) conference players (Conference USA included) scattered […]
