Sampson just drew up a great after timeout, sideline out of bounds play to win the game for Houston. I wasn’t aware that was allowed. I thought you were supposed to throw the ball away or get a five second call in those situations.

That was legitimately the worst inbounds play I’ve ever seen out of a timeout.

Tell us you don’t know basketball without telling us you don’t know basketball. Lifted the defense so there would be no help available and he could let their best inside player play one on one from ten feet and in

You prefer the types of plays that lead to 25-footers at the buzzer after dribbling around aimlessly like in Stillwater last season?

Tiny, if you were referring to the Moser out of bounds play last week, my apologies. But it seemed like you were referring to the Houston play, which I would be totally baffled by.
 
Vandy knocks off Tennessee. They and Mizzou showing they want nothing to do with the conference cellar.

That’s the one. Moon ball pass across the court to goodine. Easy steal.
 
Miss and Miss St was a battle. Not always pretty but very competitive. Miss St wins in OT after Miss hit a 3 to send it to OT.

But Miss St was up by 5 and got called for F1 with 4.4s left in OT. Right up there with some of our idiotic plays when their guy fouls not going for the ball. But they were lucky and held on after Miss missed a 3 to tie at the buzzer.

It’s pretty remarkable how many silly plays college players make late in games. As a coach, it would drive me insane that college players don’t understand situations better.

That game was a classic example of how the stupid replay system in college is ruining the end of games. They need to go to a challenge system rather than just reflexively going to the monitor for every call down the stretch. As with most rules, just go to the NBA way.
 
West Virginia now has wins over ISU and KU, and DeVries hasn’t played since early Dec. Really impressive. Would have been a great father/son combo to get last year.
 
WVU had an impressive home win over #2 ISU. That's WVU's third win over a top 10 team.

The Vandy situation gives me hope as a fan. Things can change almost overnight if you get the right coach in there. Especially in the transfer portal/NIL era.
 
UCF had a chance for a slam for the ages yesterday and some dude for Houston contested it 100% and rejected one of the purest blocks I've ever seen on a power dunk. The whistle was blown because, well, officials are terrible, but it sent a message to the Knights. It was one hell of a basketball play. Milos is playing well for Houston and looks noticeably stronger.

The right coach and administrative commitment can get a hoops program going in the right direction in a hurry. I'm afraid we have neither.
