I tried to turn on Tennessee and Auburn at 8:30 and it wasn’t on yet, so I turned this game on to watch the final three minutes of regulation. And it didn’t disappoint. 

Kansas at end of overtime was brutal. 

It’ll be nice when Dickinson is gone. He’s like 29 years old? What did he even do in either overtime 


Feels like he's been around forever and he's been the exact same player since he was a freshman. Dude started out as this freshman phenom and just seemed to plateau there where the only real difference in his game is that he's become more of an asshole as he's gotten older. That guy who's a good player, but not a real difference-maker and just stays at that level for 100 years.

Remember when people thought he was borderline lottery pick after his freshmen year

I think he’s a very good example of probably made decent money (7 figures, easily?) in college and whatever basketball he pursuits after this season will be overseas or G-league.

He is over $1.5M in NIL since the move to Kansas. He was rumored to be a $2M guy, but I think since then it’s been shown to be between $1.5M and $1.75M

He also shouldn’t have left Michigan (obviously the money was better, though). He is in a system now, and can’t showcase as much. Michigan he was the system and had free range for a lot more offense.

My gambling addiction has me watching much more NCAA

Toledo…up 4 with 6 seconds left. OU has to go full length. Toledo fouls on purpose near half court???????????? 2 free throws.

Make it make sense. A made 3 and no more than 1 second left. Instead they made 1 free throw then tried to kiss on purpose but line violation on OU

So 3.5 seconds left, up 3 and Toledo throws ball all the way down the court out of bounds, took a diving play out of bounds on other end to barely touch it after review. OU missed 3 at buzzer.


Just fucking play in the way defense until they are near shooting then get the f out of the way. Just idiotic coaching

Zach Austin swatting balls all over the Field house as Pitt beats UNC. UNC looked awful the last few minutes. Forcing passes with a late lead and just ooor demeanor down the stretch.
