    Utah just outscored ASU 41-9 in the first half.

    The Utes had 10 blocks.

    I don't understand anything right now. That score has bludgeoned me insensible.

    You saw the Kentucky-UCLA game earlier this season right? 41-7 at the half and UCLA isn't nearly as bad as Arizona State.

    ASU beat Arizona two weeks ago!

    I didn't know about that first one actually. Also I thought ASU was a lot lower in the PAC12 than they are. Whoops!

    As for them beating Arizona, Boston College was the first ACC team to beat Syracuse last year. I don't think anyone was prepared to say that Boston College was any good even after that.

    For reference:



    Also I did not know that if you hit quote while editing a post it will stick the quote in the edit box instead of the regular box. Neat!

    After the Commodores' 73-65 victory, Baldwin was seen clapping in the face of Tennessee forward Armani Moore.

    Stalling was informed of Baldwin's actions by a Vols staff member. The Commodores coach then pulled Baldwin out of the handshake line and loudly and profanely berated him.

    Well, there's a kernel of class in there

    Sparty would go out and win 3 straight road games and one against OSU, and then drop one to Minnesota at home.

    This is the weirdest MSU team. I swear we could beat Duke and lose to Drexel or something on consecutive nights.

    Vandy coach's heart was in the right place, just overdid it. You gotta call out that crap when you see it.

    I mean, what he did is like 10 times worse than what the player did, which is why it's so funny to me.

    And Northern Iowa gets rewarded for some great defense by having two bad fouls called against them, both late in the shot clock.

    My ears are still ringing. THAT was the pissed off Wichita State crowd I love.

    My seat is way up in row 29 so you ain't seeing me during a game. I apparently was spotted on GameDay this morning.

    Tekele Cotton is a national treasure.

    Wow Gonzaga lost to BYU, that is something as I think that can possibly bring BYU inside the bubble maybe? That would be nice.

    Sucks my zags lost though. Still going to the dance though so whoooo cares at this point.

    According to Lunardi the Zags were a questionable one before the loss so I'd imagine this takes then out for sure.

    Sounds like a pretty standard Big Ten basketball season to me.

    Rasheed Sulaimon at center of sexual assault allegations prior to dismissal
    Rasheed Sulaimon's dismissal from the Duke basketball program is clouded by allegations of sexual assault, which surfaced nearly a year before he was released from the team in January. Multiple sources close to the situation have confirmed that members of the athletic department were made aware of the allegations as early as March 2014.

    This probably isn't going to end well.

    It's a good piece of reporting but it just leaves me with questions. The biggest one being, why now? Why dismiss him a year later unless something new came up? Unless I missed something in the article, the only recent developments were the two interns chatting about it and one quitting his job over it? I mean, people are saying Duke should've kicked him out last year if these allegations are true, but how on earth are they supposed to know they're true if the girls didn't even make a formal complaint with the university? They just mentioned it to some other students and that's it. Not much for the coaching staff to go on there.

    And that leads to the saddest part of the whole thing:
    The fear of backlash from the Duke fan base was a factor in the female students' decision not to pursue the allegations, sources close to the women said.

    Being assaulted is bad enough. To be afraid to report the crime or even tell people? Awful.


    And this whole thing is further complicated by the lingering stench of the lacrosse scandal.

    NCAA is announcing the Syracuse findings at noon EST. Still betting on, "Slap on the wrist at worst."

    It'll still be more than what UNC gets.

    Also Boeheim just dropped from 2nd all time in wins to 6th.

    and UNC fans are getting a little nervous after the Syracuse penalty today.

    Vacating wins is so fucking stupid. They still won those games.
