Beware of Iowa St.?
They definitely are looking better than projected. I wonder if everyone is sleeping on Baylor. I know they are ranked high, but they do not seem to be getting any real media attention similar to Gonzaga, UCLA, Duke, Purdue, Nova, Kansas and the other top ranked teams.Originally Posted by Assembly Hall

Gonzaga had quite the hangover against Tarleton. Still managed to pull out the win.
Gonzaga doing too much zigging when they should have been zagging.

Just saw former UK coach Billy Clyde is the head man at Tarletan. Good for him.

I will drink to that...
Ohio State comes back from 13 down at halftime to beat no 1 Duke.

Get the feeling this year we are going to return a little towards what I consider normal in college basketball.....where even the best teams accumulate a handful of losses by tournament time. Also feels like we may have more than 2-4 teams with a legit chance in the tournament......at least early on.

UM is getting absolutely crushed by UNC. Looks like you were right, AH.
What would you say.....ya do here?

Plenty of time for the Wolves to figure it out. As of now they are just a middling B1G team.
Kind of a weird time to let your coach go but Maryland and Mark Turgeon are parting ways.
I just saw that. Very strange. No mention of what happened to cause this. Danny Manning is taking over for the rest of the season.

Lack of tournament success and a rocky start to the season I would presume. I would also add that it appears that he "lost" this year's team.

Maryland fan here... yeah I hate to see Turg go but it was time. I think the transfer portal rules really hurt what he tries to do and he's had trouble adapting. He's had a good run and hope he lands on his feet but his teams never really lived up to the promise. Then when you start to lose kids and add kids seemingly at random I can see it being frustrating to the coach.
When you consider a lot of the “old guard” coaches are calling it quits over the transfer portal and NIL it speaks volumes. Those that are left basically have to adapt or get out.
Maryland jumping to the Big 10 hurt them too IMO. Not as bad as Nebraska in football but they were more competitive in the ACC.
