My hot take this year: The Big XII is overrated nationally.
Those non-conference resumes are just not impressive overall and I don’t think the Oklahoma Teams, West Virginia, or Texas Tech would be above .500 in a conference like the Big Ten or Big East.
The last minute of this Texas / Tenn game has been going on for like 10 minutes and it was never closer than 10 points. Completely unwatchable.
I appreciated Dickie V noting that IU was favored, and exhorting people not to trumpet OMG UPSET.

USC at Oregon today.
Never forget.
Clip doesn’t even do it justice. Ducks were up over ten with under two minutes left when that guy just started draining threes left and right.
Also young Scalabrine.

This team sucks but good god at next year’s recruiting class.
They also have Dillingham who is anywhere between #7 and #14 depending on the ranking site. Apparently Dook is #2 overall and they have one guy graded in the top 10.
What is a CG?

CG means he can play center or guard.
Can he play forward? No. No he cannot.

Never heard of it before today either:
A combo guard is a basketball player who combines the attributes of a point guard (1) and shooting guard (2), but does not necessarily fit the standard description of either position. In men's basketball, such guards are usually within the 6' 3" (1.91 m) and 6' 5" (1.96 m) height range. Most combo guards tend to be between point and shooting guards in terms of height, although some possess the height of a point or shooting guard specifically which affects how each plays.
Combo guards became pr...

Yeah combo guard. It’s a silly distinction given the state of basketball in 2023.
