2015-2016 NCAA Basketball Thread - non-team-specific - NOW OFFICIAL 2016 MARCH MADNESS THREAD

Yea, OU is strong.  Arguably the best player in the country, surrounded by a bunch of very solid role players, that have all been playing together for 3 years.

That starting backcourt is sick. They're gonna go deep into March.

Virginia with an incredible comeback to win.

[Redskin4ever]

Just saw the highlights of the UVA game. That was incredible.

 

But on the flip side, that may the most Wake Forest game ever. They are almost perpetually the little brother everyone beats on. Aside from the Tim Duncan, Josh Howard, and Chris Paul years, they have pretty much been everyone's doormat.

Holton suspended indefinitely from wvu bb team. That really hurts

[The Evil Genius]

I'm hearing 3-4 games, Major. He can't stay away from the MJ or something. Repeated warnings. 

 

As an aside..WV needs to legalize it..probably the only way to save that economy right now. Not that it would make a difference with the NCAA.

[Major Harris]

I heard it was spice

[PleaseBlitz]

With Holton's spastic style of play, you would think it would be meth, not weed.

 

This really hurts, Adrian is not the rebounder or defender that Holton is.

 

 

Casazza is saying 3 games.  He's usually on the money. 

[Major Harris]

Spice would make more sense

And yes, WV really needs to legalize

[CRobi21]

Buddy Hield is out of his mind!

Simmons shying away a bit in crunch time. The freshman needs to step up if they want this one.

[TradeTheBeal!]

Sooners might win the whole thing this year.

[Redskin4ever]

Another top 5 team goes down. This time it's North Carolina.

There IS a God!....

Huge, huge , extra large win for the mountaineers at Iowa state. I will admit i didn't see this happening.

[Redskin4ever]

I see where Kentucky went down last night. They are about to join Duke in the unranked line.

Actually, Duke will probably be ranked next week after artificially inflating their value by beating on the league bottom feeders.

Thank Devin Williams and Jaysean Paige for that one. We WVU fans sure are a pessimistic bunch, huh?  Is Holton back soon?

 

Ok conspiracy theorists..who here knew that Coach K would miss a game or a few now that the dookies are out of the top 25?

I just thought they were playing so poorly they made him sick.

[Dont Taze Me Bro]

Said dehydration and lack of sleep in the article I read.  Guys in his 60s, cut him a break.  And this is coming from a UNC fan

[The Evil Genius]

It was suppose to be a joke, people.

 

Remember when he faked (I kid) his health concerns the year that Duke sucked (94-95 I think)? I know..exhaustion and back surgery.

[TD_washingtonredskins]

IU is so fun to watch when they are clicking. I'm hoping they have a deep run in them one of these years. 

[LeesburgSkinFan]

Louisville self imposes a post season ban.  So the NCAA tourney will now have two teams that wouldn't normally be in thanks to Louisville and SMU.

[The Evil Genius]

I'm stunned that a Pitino coached team is in trouble again.

 

Stunned.

I'm going to the Baylor game tomorrow.  Should be a good one.  No Holton for that one either.

One more at large bid available for duke!

How about they hook a separate cheating Final Four this year with Syracuse, SMU, Louisville, and UNC. I know UNC has skated on their widespread academic fraud and Syracuse took its ban last post season when they sucked. But they should put these four schools in their own scandal bracket.
