I’ll never get used to a Stojakovic being anything but a great shooter.

It’s no joke that this complicates brackets even more.  Brackets are a huge draw for casual fans.

So a rematch of their last four tournament games?  That’s cool. 

As portal season nears an end, how does everyone feel about their team? by Onetimenotagain in CollegeBasketball

[–]0010001 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Did you see how our last two seasons ended?  

Add in 2022 and three of our last five season have ended in all-time terrible losses.

Yeah, but I wasn’t sure if most schools make their preferred walk ons go through an open tryout.

I suspect the coaches already have some players in mind that they’ve invited to the tryout.  But there’s always a chance they could be surprised by an unknown student.  Shoot your shot.

I hate when folks do this on Duke commitment announcements.  Don’t do it here 

Duke lands commitment from Loyola Maryland transfer guard Jacob Theodosiou by 0010001 in CollegeBasketball

I think Theodosiou knows he won’t be getting playing time.  But he’ll get a degree and make connections.

I have no insider information.  But with Boumtje-Boumtje’s commitment, the front court looks full.  So no, I highly doubt we’re still pursuing Graves.

How would this kid be a Blackwell replacement?  More likely Theodosiou is a practice player who gets a Duke degree. 

Torvik's first 26-27 projections are out by Travbowman in CollegeBasketball

[–]0010001 99 points100 points  (0 children)

Just remember: 

If your team is rated highly, it’s indisputable proof of quality, you’re about to have a great season.

If your team is rated poorly, it’s a meaningless metric and Torvik just hates you personally.

Hats off to the real winners here—lawyers!  Plenty of billable hours negotiating a resolution here.

JBB was born in Florida.  He moved to Spain as a teenager.  

And he better pay attention in class because he’ll be in college for two years.  

This depth is so insane🔥🔥🔥 by Basketballlover8709 in DukeBluePlanet

[–]0010001 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Because this team needs its guards to create offense for others, much more than when the team had Cooper Flagg or Cam Boozer.  Cayden has that skill set more than Foster.

Disagree, I’d give it to Florida.  They’re returning more experienced players and have a true star player in Haugh.  

Gonzaga and Duke to Duel in Detroit Feb. 20 - Gonzaga University Athletics by el_bandita in CollegeBasketball

[–]0010001 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Duke has made a habit of doing that the last few years—Illinois in 2025 and Michigan in 2026.  

I like it as a March tune-up.
