I like to believe there is a special place in hell for assholes like Dave Bliss
When my wife was finishing her doctorate at the University of Texas, her mentor pleaded with her to accept a job at Baylor. He is a good guy and the program at Baylor is good, so it's not like he was doing anything other than looking out for a protege, but she had the sense to tell him "hell fuckin' no!"

OMG yes, that was one ugly, brutally officiated game. I can't say I have legendary bad officiating games catalogued in my mind (don denkinger being a notable exception) but this had to be among the worst. From my perspective, it wasn't just the officiating per se, it was how the officiating contributed to what was simply a bad, difficult and boring to watch basketball game. The shooting by both teams certainly added to the abuse of the game feel of the contest. Just pure ugliness all around, very difficult to watch. I did ask myself why I was still watching, yet I did watch until the end. Go figure. I wonder what the folks at the NCAA and CBS made of the game and whether it will lead to any changes?whatwouldcooleydo? wrote:So happy we won- hell, ecstatic- and all that, but good lord, that game was total ass, just brutal basketball. Like everyone else in America, I think that was one of the most poorly-officiated sporting events I have ever witnessed. That can't be emphasized strongly enough. The entire tournament had bad officiating but last night was a whole other level.
And on top of- some might say because of- the referees, the shooting on both sides was horrendous. I still can't believe how many close range shots Karnowski missed, shots he'd been making all year. And Carolina had some of the worst shot selection I have ever seen, especially from Pinson. He's not much of a 3 point shooter but just kept jacking them up. I thought for sure he had shot us out of the game
I know that most people think that UCONN/Butler final in 2011 was one of the ugliest championships ever. I don't remember the game vividly but would be hard-pressed to believe that 2011 was more brutal on the eyes than last night
Bottom line, Heel won and that's what I will remember. It is hands down their ugliest title but that doesn't matter. After losing last year in such heartbreaking fashion, I don't really care how we won. They have had much better teams over the years that looked primed to win it all but then had major injuries (the 1977 finals team, Kenny Smith, Kendall Marshall) or got upset, so maybe hanging a banner like this is just some sort of balancing out
I should clarify; it hasn't been one continuous hangover, more of a process of recover during day and then "celebrate" again at nightIowan wrote:Good god man!whatwouldcooleydo? wrote:it still livesIowan wrote:I bet there's one massive hangover in Chico today.
I am a total college basketball junkie. I watch a ton of games all season long from all around the country. I'm not one of these people who only watches/follows his favorite team.beantownbubba wrote:Just pure ugliness all around, very difficult to watch.

My mom was just telling me tonight about heckling Heathcote when she was a student at Iowa.whatwouldcooleydo? wrote:damn, two coaching greats died in the past 48 hours, Jud Heathcote and now Rollie Massimino
Sad to hear. I was a two-time attendee of the Jud Heathcote basketball camp (as a middle school kid who was probably 5 foot tall at the time, shockingly the college offers did not roll in) and closely followed MSU basketball growing up. About 15 years ago, I sat down to play poker at the Bellagio in Vegas and Jud was already sitting at the table. Really nice, gracious and friendly guy. And he didn't mind when I took a few pots from him.whatwouldcooleydo? wrote:damn, two coaching greats died in the past 48 hours, Jud Heathcote and now Rollie Massimino
And to think, if the Vols had re-hired Bruce Pearl after Cuonzo left they’d have the feds investigating them.whatwouldcooleydo? wrote:something to keep your eye on.

Four assistant basketball coaches from Arizona, Auburn, Oklahoma State and Southern California were arrested Tuesday morning on federal corruption charges, and that might only be the tip of the iceberg in a three-year FBI probe that focused on coaches being paid tens of thousands of dollars to steer NBA-bound players toward sports agents, financial advisers and apparel companies.
Federal prosecutors in New York announced charges of fraud and corruption against 10 people, including Auburn's Chuck Person, Oklahoma State's Lamont Evans, Arizona's Emanuel "Book" Richardson and USC's Tony Bland.
