    Vitale and Magic need to get a room

    Vitale needs to stick to the ACC, since he drools over them constantly. Leave the Big Ten games to Dakich and Tirico who actually know something about the conference. I do like Tirico but I'd love it if they had Musberger and Dakich paired up. Although the greatest college hoops play by play guy is Gus Johnson.

    I really like Dakich. he's very analytical and is into the game not all the vitale-like bs hyperbole. just calls a good game and has the guts to call out guys. Love Bo Ryan as a coach but love Dakich ripping him for not fouling with 3 fouls to give against Michigan 2 saturday's ago.

    Time for the Big Ten tournament! I think the draw for my Iowa Hawkeyes is pretty good and they probably need to win 2 to get back on the bubble.

    Is Barkley drunk? He just said the Pac 12 and the Mountain West are better than Big Ten this year.

    He needs to stick to covering the NBA, but he's not much worse than any of the other idiots making statements and predictions today.

    Was at Mackey yesterday watching the Boilers completely destroy IU. Good times! :D

    The older I get the more I appreciate that arena. Not a bad seat in the joint.

    Speaking of arena design (from a year ago), Assembly Hall in Boomington, Indiana was designed by retarded architects drunk on pruno.

    Outside of Vanderbelt's god-knows-what-they-were-thinking arena, I find it hard pressed to find a more poorly designed arena for spectators. Those poor fuckers in the nose bleed section are just watching a bunch of ants running around. Yet they have like 15 rows behind the baskets. Get the collection can hat out to the boosters and burn that fucker down, IU.

    Let's hold off on the weekly power rankings until my Hawkeyes get back to winning a few games in a row!

    That's pretty rough! They have had some good players come through the program, I remember Calvin Booth being pretty good a while back. Their coach seems to have them heading in the right direction so they might be able to make some noise in the coming years.

    Can't play a full 40 minutes. They seem to hang with everyone in conference, for the most part. Just can't get a string of wins.

    Yeah. Kinda crazy how they can't get that program off the ground. They built that new arena, but have to doctor the lighting so that people watching on TV can't see the empty seats beyond row 12. I think your hockey program attracts more fans.

    How in the hell does a university the size of Penn State not be able to field a competent basketball team as far back as I can remember>

    Everyone says the hockey team and B-ball team should switch arenas. Hockey is standing room every game. They built the Bryce Jordan Center and didn't add an ice maker because they thought hockey wouldn't catch on. Oooops. Place is a cavern for hoops. They should play some of the bigger games in old Rec Hall and bring the crowd back in for some home court advantage
