This Ohio USF game is ugly...

It's a 12 v 13...what did you expect?

 

[Bowser]

Ughhh, Roy on KM:

I'm worried about his right wrist and right elbow because we couldn't put him back in the game.

Whyyyyyyyyyy

Marshall shaking hands with Creighton players with his left hand across his body.

Kill me now.

 

[Proelite]

WOW. Did some Creighton player do that? Thugs.

 

[Bowser]

WOW. Did some Creighton player do that? Thugs.

Happened when Kendall went up for a layup, got blasted by a Creighton player and went flying out of bounds landing on his right side. Marshall was on the radio post game and said it wasn't anything serious, but Leslie tweeted that his knee was fine and it ended up being a torn ACL so I won't be comfortable until they run some tests on it...gahhhh

Jonathan Jones ‏ @jjones9
Marshall seeing the doctor. May not meet with media postgame.

FML PLEASE BE OK

Short little column about an Ohio player exposing what a dirty fuck Scott Drew is, along with that fuck Caldwell who has ties with UCF and tried to burn U of L:

Both Cooper and his high school coach, Brandon Thomas, declined to name the programs trying to poach him. Recruiting a player before he is released from his current program is against N.C.A.A. rules. Cooper’s mother, Dionne, identified Baylor Coach Scott Drew as someone who attempted to lure her son from Ohio.

“He wasn’t necessarily calling and saying, ‘Come on over,’ ” she said. “He would say: ‘Oh, this is great. I knew you could do it. The exposure you’re getting now, you’re not getting it in the MAC because you’re not on TV.’ He was really trying to sell to me. ‘We know you can do these things, but because of where you are, you’re not getting the attention you deserve.’ ” (Drew did not return a text message seeking comment.)

D.J. Cooper declined to comment when asked if Kenneth Caldwell, a Chicago-based runner for an agent, who admitted recruiting players for Central Florida and other programs, had reached out to him. Caldwell had a close relationship with Jerome Randle, the former Pac-10 player of the year at California who played with Cooper when he attended Hales Franciscan High School in Chicago. All Cooper would say about Caldwell is that he knew him.

I love how Thamel is basically the only guy on this shit. Need more writers like him.

I'm not going to give that shit Thamel any hits, especially after the crap he wrote about Kanter.

 

[Bowser]

Scaphoid bone in Marshall's right wrist is fractured. "we do not know his status." no talking to media

FUCCCCKKKKKKKKKK

FUCK YOU CREIGHTON

 

[TheNatural]

Boo hoo. Everyone knew Kanter wasn't going to be eligible and backed off, just like Bledsoe. UK got away with one, and didn't another, and the whole fanbase went nuts.

Don't recruit danger players everyone has backed off on and it wouldn't be a problem. ALA Shabazz Muhammad next year is asking for an NCAA violation for anyone who signs him.

 

[linko9]

Jesus.... broken wrist? Are you serious? Don't know what to say.

 

[Cubsfan23]

UNC is done


south florida to the final 4

 

[Bowser]

The refs let Creighton thug it up and just cost us our title shot. Fucking assholes.

 

[Pollux]

Wow....fractured wrist for Marshall? Shit.

damn...Sorry UNC fans.

 

[Proelite]

That's worse than Irving's toe last year. A million times worse.

It's not fair.

 

[Talon]

This sucks.

[TheNatural]

UNC loses a player? Wow.

At least you got to the Sweet 16. We went home in the first round last year thanks to Knowles ACL tear.

 

[Pollux]

Well it is his non-shooting hand...could he still play?

 

[bucknuticus]

Well it is his non-shooting hand...could he still play?

Good luck receiving passes or passing in general on a bad wrist.

 

[Talon]

Well it is his non-shooting hand...could he still play?

Most of what he does isn't shooting the ball. It's that first pass that makes the team go. If they don't score near 80 a game, they ain't winning shit.

 

[Proelite]

I feel like the NCAA is trying to artificially create March Madness stories. First by trolling power programs with under seeded teams, and then letting lower seeds get away with murder.

 

[Avinexus]

Well it is his non-shooting hand...could he still play?

I suppose that depends on how well he can dribble/pass/etc. with it.

 

[Alligatorjandro]

Go Gators

 

[cr_blah_blah]

Gators just dumping salt in Norfolk's wound. 30+ point lead isn't enough.

 

[DominoKid]

FUCCCCKKKKKKKKKK

FUCK YOU CREIGHTON

fuck my life.
im fucking sick of seasons getting ruined by teams that goonball us cause they cant play.
i'm so over this shit.

goddamn i wish the worst for Creighton forever. fucking thugs.

[Brinbe]

Let's go, Lehigh!

 

[Proelite]

Lehigh is going to destroy Xavier.

The wink makes it seem like he did it intentionally, but do you expect them to play around his wrist? They are going to slap at the ball whether he has a hurt wrist or not...


Also, how long is Marshall expected to be out? It's not like their next game is going to be one where they will need him.

 

[goldlion054]

The refs let Creighton thug it up and just cost us our title shot. Fucking assholes.

As much as I hate to see anyone get hurt, I am so thankful its a UNC player. In the off chance MSU and UNC meet in the title game, my Spartans need all the help they can get. UNC is the biggest monkey to ever crawl on MSU's back

 

[GoldenEye 007]

Lehigh. What the hell is going on?!

 

[DominoKid]

The refs let Creighton thug it up and just cost us our title shot. Fucking assholes.

This year just wasnt meant to be. This'll be one that we look back on forever like "what if".

 

[pxleyes]

I must be seriousLEhigh if that score is correct. A 15 seed plowing it's way to a Sweet 16 spot?!

 

[Proelite]

I said before Duke/Lehigh that Lehigh was legit and has a great chance of taking us out. It was obvious that without Kelly, we're over-matched. It's probably the worst seeding of an opponent that the NCAA has done in a while.

 

[Cubsfan23]

Xavier is done

 

[Bowser]

Very emotional #UNCBBall locker room. Marshall met media red-eyed and mentioned teammates 7 times in 9 minutes.

I'm literally about to cry right now

 

[Proelite]

I'm literally about to cry right now

McDonald, Dexter, Henson and then Marshall.

UNC needs to be repaid with like 4 championships in a row in the next few years.

EDIT:

clint jackson says he may still be able to go next week

 

[Pollux]

I'm literally about to cry right now

Sorry bro. You're still a damn good team though...


and :0 at that Lehigh score. Damn.

 

[MrPink93485]

I went to Creighton....I feel bad.

 

[jakncoke]

15 seed might be going to sweet 16..so weird.

 

[iamblades]

UNC should be able to get past the next round without him, they luckily will get a 12/13.

I don't see them beating kansas without a healthy Marshall though...

 

[DominoKid]

Sorry bro. You're still a damn good team though...

no were not. we dont stand an iota of a chance w/o Kendall.
if we still had Strickland we could deal w/ it but nope.

 

[TheNatural]

If UK can't win the title this year, they'll never win it with the other top two 1 seeds losing a major player. Silver platter.

And yet I'm still nervous about every game we play, including IU.

 

[Proelite]

And then get destroyed by Baylor.

They won't have to play Kansas because KU isn't getting past the Boilermakers

All B1G Final Four!

We might be able to get by USF/Ohio, but that's it. Can't beat a team the caliber of KU/OSU/UK with Stillman White/Justin Watts playing major minutes. I hope we put Bullock at point, start Hairston or JMac and play huge. Only chance IMO.

 

[etiolate]

GO LEHIGH!

 

[talisayNon]

No Duke or UNC!?

Sounds good to me!

We're screwed. I feel so bad for KM
