JOB is a McD's All American from Mississippi though. Doesn't surprise me.

Anyway, Anthony Davis is fucking amazing and when he came out the game it became apparent how much of a difference he makes. Nice of him to let us have a little hope when he came out of the game and we made that nice run in the first half. Glad he's not seriously hurt though.

Damn, Texas has been so close in most of their tough contests.

 

[Woy]

St. Francis (NY) 81, Robert Morris 68

Inconsistency is a bitch. That's all that needs said.

No intensity, no fire, no energy and yet they still led at half by one. The Terriers made a little run to start the second half and RMU just shut it down after that. Out of the three Colonial squads I've seen during my time here, this is by far the most mentally weak one.

RMU travels to Wagner on Thursday.

i was really hoping MTSU could beat vandy. MTSU is sitting at 20-3 right now after the 12 game winning streak was snapped. I think they can get an at large bid if they stay sub 5 losses.

 

[Pitty]

Nice to see the Pitt/Dixon bashing continuing on a second page.

Is it just me, or did Jamie Dixon somehow get even weirder looking this season? He is morphing into the Toxic Avenger.

Pitt sucks. They are very lucky to not be 1-2 after struggling to beat Rider. RIDER. Now they lose to Long Beach St.

Next up they get LaSalle, Penn, RMU, Duquesne, Tenn, VMI, Okie St, SC St, St Francis, & Wagner before getting into Big East play.

Nice schedule, Coach Dixon. No wonder they are running off to the softer ACC where you only have two teams to worry about. Dixon is afraid to play anybody. Good riddance, faggots.

And yeah, i'm trolling Pitty, but he'll never see it because he does a disappearing act after losses and embarrassing efforts.

Of course he was in the thread posting :smug: after they blew out Albany.

When you are a perennial top 10 team & in the Big East, you shouldn't struggle with Rider and lose to Long Beach St (both at home, btw). I can forgive one bad showing, but this is two in a row, and both at home. And they were never in the LBS game. LBS held a 8-16 point lead for pretty much the entire game.

And that schedule is a disgrace. An absolute disgrace. PLAY SOMEBODY! PLAY SOMEBODY! When a Tennessee program in disarray and Oklahoma St are the "big" non conference "showdowns", that's a garbage schedule. I can understand the local teams, and maybe a cupcake or two, but do they really need the Wagner game? South Carolina St? C'mon, Dixon.

Maybe next time you'll hold off on the expert analysis when you realize the team's only point guard was out for two months with an injury.

Oh yeah, how'd you like red-face Jamie taking a fat dump on JTIII's defensive scheme last night? How many open layups?

Pitt still sucks. Nice of you to show up after a win though.

Also LOL at you coming in here pumping up 13-9 team and a team that is 2-7 and second to last in the Big East.

Why would I post, you never have anything worthy of commenting on. Why would I reply to "OMG PITTY LOLOL OMG ND LOL" from JayRock or "NICE TO SEE DIXON BEING UGLY DEEERRRPPPP". You got your quip in, I'd rather talk about the actual game, but you be damn sure that if you pile on in multiple pages about my team, when we completely dominate your school I will let you know.

I'm still in the chatbox, still get the classic "remember so and so loss" or "remember derplesburgh in the tourney in XXXX? LOLLOLOLOL" from Woy, at least occasionally we'll discuss coaching or the actual game strategy. At least there I can get a response without having to sift through 20 posts of retarded posts. Also, I only come around once or twice a day nowadays instead of living on here like I could do in college.

No one will care because you are supposed to and I don't go around beating my chest about Notre Dame basketball. Ever.

On the flips side you constantly say stupid shit about Pitt basketball, then disappear when they predictably suck or flop and show up after they win two games despite being one of the worst teams in the Big East and quoting W2B as if anything he said was incorrect. Especially given the context of when he said it.

You never post anything worth commenting on either. Mainly because with Pitt sucking and losing you never post.

I'm still in the chatbox,

The chatbox sucks and is overrated. Makes sense you would post there.

we'll discuss coaching or the actual game strategy.

LOL at you knowing anything about game strategy. You watch Pitt basketball.

Dixon wouldn't know basketball strategy if it sat on his face.

:troll:

Pitty shows his face, color me shocked!

Pump the brakes goofball, you're 13-9 & 2-7. Pitt's best out of league win is Robert Morris.

And by the way, Pitt was -1 yesterday. Congrats on a the "big" home win in a game you were favored.

Now go crawl back into your hole before you lose 8 in a row again. Enjoy the NIT and getting whacked by Duke & UNC every year.

 

[NAHSTE]

Oh Pitty has returned to posting in this thread? Pitt must have finally won a big game.

 

[Pitty]

I rarely post anywhere on here, not just this thread. I might as well go to r/circlejerk, mirrors about half of the subforums on this site.

Trust me. We notice and are all very thankful.

In related news, Marquette is in 2nd by themselves!

I was excited when i went to Bridgestone arena for the circus with my son yesterday i noticed the upcoming events showed NCAA Tourney 1st round action. I thought sweet i get to see UK. Then i look at the bracketology today and see that the Midwest Region has Louisville as a 1st round site and its about a 99 pct lock that UK plays there.

 

[DDRGuido]

Welp. go Pitt

 

[DDRGuido]

Refs are letting them play tonight.

 

[ralaw]

My early NC pick is Kentucky.

 

[FirstTimer]

Another stinker in the B10 last night between MSU and Illinois.

I'm shocked Illinois isn't better. Leonard and Paul are both ridiculously talented.

 

[Archer]

Just watched the replay of Marquette v Seton Hall from last night.

Surprised Wade and LeBron stayed until the end considering how awful the actual game was.

Nice 7 in a row streak for Marquette but they are going to need Gardner to be healthy if they want to beat ND this weekend.

My early NC pick is Kentucky.

I still like UNC in a tourney format. I get the feeling that they are just going through the motions at the moment.
