“He was my son in high school and I didn’t watch him then, either,” Hollins said. “When I was out of basketball, I went to every game. I hated it. But I had to do it.”

Early entrant for Father of the Year?

No one is going to defend the… attractiveness of Big 10+2 basketball. Especially any game Wisconsin is playing.

College football >>>> College basketball >>>>>> College baseball

Fox Sports Net is good about showing PAC-10 games Lionel…not going to defend the Big Ten but I don’t think they’re any worse than most of college basketball, not really lighting up the scoreboards in the Big East from what I’ve seen but I guess they shoot and miss more often so the entertainment value is higher

I know I will be called a homer, but OSU is fun to watch. The always find the open man and play great defense.

Last years OSU team ran the old Cavalier offense. Give it to Evan Turner and let him run down the clock. This year’s squad is much different.

“He was my son in high school and I didn’t watch him then, either,” Hollins said.

Am I the only person laughing at this? I had to read the article to get some sort of idea of whether he was serious. He apparently is.

“When I was out of basketball, I went to every game. I hated it.”

Sorry about your dad, Austin!

Jesus do I hate the name Jimmer. I’d like to punch that fucker in the mouth

Especially any game Wisconsin is playing.

I like how my first reaction to this was to get defensive before remembering I was on here Tuesday night talking about how much I dislike watching them this season…but they remain incredibly efficient so it’s a problem with the sport itself, don’t hate the player, hate the game (and shorten the shot clock)

I see the beer has kicked in.

Just saw the new Real Housewives franchise – Miami! It looks like a train wreck. And of course 2 NBA wives are involved including Scottie Pippen’s wife.

Someone has to pay the bills.

Wisky is a perfect example of defensive, efficient and borderline unwatchable basketball. That’s why I used them.

just 3 in 2 hours. i need to pick up the pace before i get mean

Jimmer sounds like a euphemism for an erection circa 1926.

Pitt = black Wisconsin.

Whoa. TBL said the links would be changed to blue but I didn’t know it was going to be neon blue.

Pitt = black Wisconsin.

This was even worse when Ben Howland was coaching there…I remember they played in the second round back in 2004 (which was a joke, both should have been top four seeds) and the race to 50 points was brutal

In Lionel’s defense, college basketball is awful in comparison to the NBA.

This guy is my new favorite coach.

and shorten the shot clock

God YES!! 35 seconds is way too long. I’d put it at 28 if I were in charge.

This x1000

If you want to make an argument that college games are more fun to attend to or the atmosphere is better than in the NBA that’s one thing. But I don’t get how anyone can say that it is a better brand of basketball.

In an article yesterday, Harvard Sport Analysis Collective wrote how Wisconsin is sneaky efficient. This season, they have the best team ft% of any team over the past decade, but ft’s are actually not a strength of the team. To sum up, fuck Badgers basketball
