Decent year for ACC basketball, but NCAA tourney shows where growth needed.

With the Duke Blue Devils bowing out against UConn in a disastrous final 10 possession, the ACC did not have a team in the Final 4 for the first time since 2021.  It wasn’t a total washout of a NCAA tournament, but it wasn’t good either. The ACC was in fact an improved league getting …

Duke and Jon Scheyer choke again, and it costs them a trip to the Final Four.

After Duke choked away a Final 4 game away to Houston this is what we wrote…  When you look back on the 2025 men’s basketball season, I’ll always think the Duke Blue Devils were the highest ceiling team of in the country. You don’t win national titles on potential, though. Duke was the better basketball …

Lane Kiffin and Will Wade will form the most unlikable pair of coaches in America.

We all know college athletics is more big business than sport these days. Players move, coaches move, and there is gazillions of dollars running around everywhere. That said, it takes a special kind of person in college athletics to be truly universally loathed, and now two of the most loathed are at the same school. …

Lack of Cinderella’s may have explanation, and it’s not just NIL.

NIL is widely considered the reason for the lack Cinderella’s in the last 2 NCAA Men’s tournaments. I have found that to be an incomplete reason for what we are seeing. @CBB_Central Kevin Sweeney does an excellent job diving into this topic in detail. Todd Golden made an interesting point to me on the lack …

SMU and NC State were eliminated in the first 4. Duke almost lost to Siena before righting their ship and getting to the Sweet 16. Virginia struggled with Wright State before they closed them out. We’ll exempt Louisville, as they played to their seeding and lost to a very good Michigan State. We all know …

Advancing to Sweet 16, Duke looks like Duke again against TCU

For about 65 minutes of basketball in Greenville, SC, Duke looked like a shell of a team that was the best team in the country. They struggled mightily against 16th-seeded Siena and barely escaped with a 71-65 win. At the 15-minute mark of the 2nd half against 9 seed TCU they trailed 42-40. There was …

Should Clemson fans feel good or frustrated with basketball season?

  After Friday’s listless 67-61 loss to Iowa, Clemson’s season ends in the opening round of the NCAA tournament for the second straight year. Just like last year, the first half offensive performance doomed the Tigers. They scored 13 points last year against McNeese State, and this year just 25. Clemson finished the season 24-11 …

I was there in the Greenville, SC Thursday and took in the Duke vs Siena game. Hey if the a host site is 15 minutes from your home you simply have to go if you are a basketball fan. Duke came out like they didn’t respect Siena, and it showed getting down by 11 at …

CBS, TNT, TBS, and TruTV Could Have Hired Former UVA Basketball Coach, Tony Bennett, As An Analyst

Good evening, Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC) sports fans. I think we can agree:  At this point, the CBS/TNT/TBS/TruTV hire of Bruce Pearl, former Auburn men’s basketball coach has been a failure.  There’s no other way to describe that – but our friends at @AwfulAnnouncing chronicle this in many ways.  We appreciate them. After all, it …
