Did anyone else see Gonzaga totally destroy Kentucky and their 22 million dollar roster tonight? What a joke and waste of money. I'd refuse to pay them for a performance like that. It was a total beatdown in Nashville with mostly UK fans in attendance. The boo birds were very vocal.

Since the game was mentioned above, I will note that Notre Dame went on the road and beat TCU in OT.
ND has a 5* Jalen Haralson, 6'7" guard, who played two seasons at Fishers HS and two a LaLumiere as a freshman.
He completely took over the game's closing minutes by scoring 7 in a row, including a game-tying fallaway jumper just ahead of the buzzer. He then propelled ND to the OT win. Haralson is the most highly ranked recruit in the 'modern era" (whatever that means) for ND. It will be interesting to learn what level of talent Micah Shrewsberry can recruit to the Joyce Center. His 2025 class includes one 5*, two 4*'s, a 3* and a 3* transfer. But at this point ND is far from elite and is a work in progress.

Agree with you on Shrewsberry but there are few, zero impediments to that institution having a solid program - money, pre-NIL and currently is not an issue - if it IS; they can only look at themselves. they still tout their greatness as a program but they've rarely been in the legit, blue blood category.
Ryan Conwell bossing around Enright and DeVries is fun to watch. Louisville is miles better than IU

Lots of nice pub about ISU and Conwell thus far
Have a link or a video? Haven’t been following him.
Game on CBS right now. Just brought back up ISU again. Robbie Hummel was a big fan of ours haha
Interesting
It’s IU v Louisville - he plays there now

Aces lose by 1 on road at WKU.
Last play in Iowa State vs Iowa: The ISU guy bumps the def off of him on the drive and then jumps into him on the shot, committing two offensive fouls; and they call the defense for the foul.
Are we teaching our players to take advantage of the refs not knowing the rules?

Crazy fall from grace. It’s maybe one of the worst coaching jobs in the portal era. They are VERY well funded and dropped to one of the worst teams in the country. Even if you are a bad coach you should be top 175 with their bank account on a bad year. To be in the 300+ and one of the worst in the country try is insane

Drew "I hate Peoria Illinois" Valentine went from being a finalist for the Xavier job last year to "fired mid-season" watch.
Miami of Ohio moves to 11-0
Am I mistaken or was it rumored we beat them in a secret scrimmage
It was rumored we beat them 4 straight periods.
