We knew it was coming but figured it would be K-State as he has roots there.

Good hire for OSU...

Big 12 got better in Basketball over the last few days. Your guy went to OSU and the Pitt basketball coach is going to TCU.

Buddy is gonna be a tough one to slow in the semis, but the two teams are familiar with each other.

what the heck happened in that game, I turned it off because Syracuse was down by like 14 points and they end up winning by 6???

Funny thing is when I switched channels, I said to myself..now, they'll probably make an incredible come back

Uh, that's New York State's Team.

SU had to leave the Big East because too many schools for too long were catching a tan off their sunshine.

As Boeheim said, they only forced 1 turnover on the press. The bigger coaching change was they stopped trying to use high ball screens as much and just drove to the bucket instead, so they started to score (47 points in the 2nd half). I think one of the things that the press did was Parrenttes (sp?) was winded. I saw him sucking wind at one moment and I knew that he was probably done. He couldn't take many shots during that period and when he did he was throwing up bricks. That was a big key because he was killing them all game long.

The press was important, but the coaching change on offense is something most people overlook.

I didn't say they turned them over, i said they sped em up...no denying how important the Cuse defense was in the second half... offensively they did make changes, you saw more off ball screens as well.
