Texas coach Rick Barnes has been named the winner the John R. Wooden Legends of Coaching Award.
Barnes, a head coach for 21 seasons with Clemson, Providence, George Mason and Texas, has a 449-227 record. He has been at Texas for the past 10 years with a 245-92 record leading the Longhorns to the NCAA tournament […]
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 […]
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 season is just around the corner and two of the premiere college basketball classics have announced their lineups.
The 15th annual John Wooden Classic at the Honda Center (formally the Pond, a much cooler name) in Anaheim, CA, Dec. 13, will feature UCLA facing off against DePaul, and in a sleeper, San Diego State […]
College basketball really does pay.
For the schools that is.
In a story earlier this year on Forbes.com, the site listed the 20 richest college basketball teams.
The list was based on four factors that include, their university (money generated by basketball that goes to the institution for academic purposes, including scholarship payments for basketball players); athletic […]
And the list keeps growing and growing and growing…
Three more underclassmen declared late Wednesday: Memphis juniors Antonio Anderson, Robert Dozier and Texas junior guard A.J. Abrams.
Anderson and Dozier were role players on Memphis’ team this year, and their early entries come as a big surprise to me. Neither player signed with an agent, so I […]
Two more notable underclassmen declared for the NBA draft on Wednesday: Texas sophomore guard D.J. Augustin and Kansas guard Mario Chalmers.
Many NBA draft experts peg Augustin as a lottery pick, so his early entry should not have surprised anybody. Augustin was a consensus first team All-American this season and averaged 19.2 points and 5.8 assists […]

The Friday night games are winding down, and here are my thoughts on today’s action:
- Even though the game is far from over, I want to extend my congratulations to the Michigan State Spartans for laying the biggest egg of the tournament thus far. Extremely disappointing effort by the Spartans.
- Very convincing win by Texas […]
First off, I hope everybody has a great Easter today.
Now, on to the early thoughts from Day 4 of the NCAA tournament.
- Anybody who doesn’t think that Texas is vulnerable should think again. Yes, they are a #2 seed, but they are definitely beatable. Same goes for #2 seed Tennessee, and their game with Butler […]
