    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.

    Nice to see Bo Ryan get coach of the year. Again, no one does more with less. Congrats Bo.

    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.

    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.
