Just wondering if I am alone. I used to love watching college hoops.  I used to watch a couple games a week and was all over the tournament.

 

I could care less now. Players are in and out so fast, it just seems like a waste of time to learn about anyone until they hit the NBA. 

 

Anyone else?

^^^ this exactly.  A die-hard Tar Heel, especially during years with Phil Ford, "Sweet D" Walter Davis, and then Michael Jordan and James Worthy.  This weekend, I was able to watch the ACC final game, and not get even slightly nervous.  It felt weird.

A bunch of Hank Hills in here talking about the fundamentals lol.

My only problem is the one and dones. On one hand, I'm not mad at any of these players leaving early to get their money...but it is hard to really follow a team with the lineups constantly changing from year to year. You don't get to see a group of players grow together like you could awhile ago. Plus, these one and dones mess up the NBA. Teams are now drafting based on potential, instead of the safe pick that could help you right away. It takes a good 3-4 years before some of these picks pan out, and most of them don't. Some of these one and dones really need to stay in school a bit to perfect their craft, grow into their bodies, etc

    • Seems to me that the Bucs have less fight in them now than they had in week 16. The real test is going to be if the Panthers can sustain focus and discipline throughout. With the Bucs being at home, maybe that gives them a little boost of confidence and energy.  Wouldn’t it be something if for ONCE the Panthers came out and dominated from the opening snap and just took this shook Bucs team to task?  If the Panthers see-saw form follows, we are in line for the W. Hard to say we have momentum but we do have a pretty clear pattern of following a loss with a win.  I’m going to say 24-16 Panthers!!
    • When Parcell’s said Bryce better “walk on water”…..the implied concern wasn’t that the tiny QB could survive being hit.  It was acknowledging he would have to be extremely special to overcome the handicaps he would face at this level.  Which he isn’t and can’t.  which isn’t just being hit.  It’s being able to play in an NFL pocket and make NFL throws from it….and that ultimately is Bryce’s problem.  He doesn’t play well from a NFL pocket and can’t make all the throws as needed.  He can’t see as others can.  Which impacts the throws he does and doesn’t take.  It also impacts him bailing and killing plays and turning them into scrambles/dead plays 
    • 9:30 kick off here in Scotland, which is better than the 01:20 early hours of Monday that I feared. Will definitely be watching, but probably wouldn't if it had been 0120 as I need to be up for work at 05:45. Falcons Saints is 6pm on the Sunday so will watch that too if it becomes relevant
