Re: Preseason NCAA Basketball Poll is released

Does anyone actually think Gonzaga is a serious title contender?

    They haven't made it past the Sweet 16 since their initial Cinderella run in 1999, so no.

    A very average Kansas team in the drivers seat for the conference title. Iowa St wins at home on Monday, Kansas wins at home on Tuesday & it's over.

    That said, will be surprised if KU makes it past the first weekend of the tournament

    Cowboys collapsing at the best time of the year. Losing at Tech and TCU in the same season? Yikes.

    You'll be fine. You'll end up drawing UNC in the second round somehow and cruise, assuming UNC makes it to the second round.

    I think they're good enough to beat anyone, but not capable of winning six in a row.

    I'm fine with gonzaga. I think they're good. like I say every year though, it's easy to say that a team won't make the final four

    Karl towns breaking out a month ago really made us all around better, our offense went from mediocre to really effective. Now that Trey lyles seems to be doing the same thing, well our offense has become just unstoppable.

    I live in Spokane, and even the locals are starting to acknowledge that the Zags wouldn't be that good if they were in a real conference.

    Also, will someone PM me when we make a bracket group?

    At this point, if I am a Kentucky fan, it's gotta be undefeated or bust. Sure, they'd celebrate the championship if they lose a game before the tourney, and still end up winning it, but I think it'd be a disappointment. It's going to be a fun tournament seeing what they can do.

    Will be dissapointed if they don't go undefeated but I'll be crushed if they don't win the title.

    I think we know what happened last time allegations were made against Duke student athletes. I'm not saying Sulaimon is innocent, I'm just saying the best they could have done is benched him while and internal investigation occurred.

    They didn't have to. There's nothing legally wrong with not benching a player who has been accused of something. Morally? That's what can be debated.

    I guess. I don't really mind either way. would think it's sketchy if it comes out that the athletic department knew there were charges and purposely didn't pursue anything

    plus, there were quotes that the girls didn't come forward because of fear of backlash, which, obviously, but that never looks good

    I agree with the charges thing. If charges were filed and they did nothing, yeah, that's sketchy as hell.

    But I really think if they were notified that Sulaimon was accused of these things, a lot of it probably had to do with how the Duke lacrosse thing went down.

    Because, as poorly as it may look if proven true, they have to keep in mind what will happen to the accused. If they started sitting Sulaimon, all sorts of questions would be raised and it'd get leaked into the media and cause another major shit storm.

    Say what you want about K, but I don't think he'd sweep sexual assault under the rug.

    Given the two choices here, I think more people will have a problem with letting him play after the accusations than sitting him while they were investigating. In fact I think most would've applauded K if he had done the latter. Now he's really got a potential shit storm on his hands
