McDermott countered with a good timeout of his own after consecutive Blue Jay turnovers.  Now four straight possessions ending in a three for Creighton.   Louisville is in big trouble.

McDermott's off-ball screen game is beautiful. Creigthon has had many backcuts wide open but the entry has been late.

Purdue with a 5 or 6 shot possession.  Came up empty.  As the game goes on, it won't come up empty on those.

Is it bad after watching this Louisville game, I'm like "yeah, I want McDermott now" hahaha

He’s a really good coach. Him or Sean Miller would be the 2 realistic hires I would be in favor of right now. His offensive sets are unbelievable.

Louisville looks so out of whack. Sprinting to the paint to put up a contested two by Kalkbrenner, and no communication on screens, leaving Creighton wings wide open outside.

Creighton is splashing right now too.

When I watch other teams play fluid, fun offense, it makes me want a new leader for the Longhorns' basketball program even more.

What’s everyone’s game/games today they really want to watch? The McNeese-Clemson & San Diego-Michigan are the ones I’m eyeing.

I had juggled Clemson to my final four for almost two hours yesterday. Opted for Houston.

Especially a team like creighton who creates so many open looks off ball movement, inside-out play etc.

Wade and Brownell are off the table for teams hiring, so McNeese-Clemson no longer piques my curiosity.  Meanwhile, I want to see if those D2 stars for Drake can hang with a top 20 type team like Missouri. 

Houston on its way to winning by 50 or so. 

McNeese/Clemson seems like most interesting game today

 

Clemson is off to a putrid start.

You had them picked to win this?

VCU isn't out of it yet, but it looks well on the way to saying goodbye to Odom in the next 24 hours.  39-28 BYU at the half. 

Great win for McNeese State.

BYU looking like they could make a real deep run.Hottest team in the country.

Yall can put them brackets in the trash, I know they're already busted.

That's where I should have went, my nephew is planning to sign there. I love Lake Charles, LA so much I volunteered to be stationed at Ft Polk.

Lol, mine has been cooked. Almost started 0-3

Rooting for Calipari and Arky makes me ill.  It's against Self and Kansas, so I'm willingly sticking fingers down my throat.

Looks like an Achilles off of replay for KJ Adams Jr. too. Really unfortunate to see at the end of this contest.

Yeah, that is a shame.

Drake is pulling away from Missouri in the game that had my interest.  43-28 with 12:40 left.
