6 straight years without making the tournament, after all the hype preseason and then this happening

idk how to express the heartbreak and depression this has caused us
i'm a grown man and I feel like crying this is ridiculous

memphis can bounce back, dandridge being hurt before the game, precious and lance being hurt during the game (with wiseman leaving the team)...could be used as an excuse

but that excuse will require wins vs the conferences big dogs to bolster

Not. Scored 22 points in second half against Butler when he played for KSU. But he probably considers his best game as being him getting his first start and scoring 32 points against Stetson. .

a horrible stetson is still stetson..and KSU was down 24 at half to butler (and the gap never closed), scoring 22 second half points against butler's walk-ons isnt that impressive...

he just had 22 in a win vs a NIT calibur team where he carried the comeback, and hit all the clutch shots in regulation

Wrong, playing against Butler, he was not guarded by subs in the second half. guys were all over him and he separated from them off his dribble off or got the rim. No one else in Big East scored nearly so many points in one-half playing Butler.

You put down Scott and Stetson, even though it was his first start as a freshman, and he scored 32- points?

You’re a sick puppy with a myopic view of bb.

Doubt 10 college freshman in the history of college bb have scoresd 32 points in their first game starting as a freshman.

i wont argue butler, there is a box score that shows 12 butler players playing including walk-ons getting plenty of minutes and their best player only playing 17 minutes (not in foul trouble)..and the majority of scott's points came in the last 13 minutes of the game

your view is myopic in reference to stetson.you are acting like it was his 1st game of the year...you overvalued the label of "starter"....it was like his 18th game of the season and averaging like 20 minutes a game prior

its like hyping caleb mills scoring "23" on temple his 1st "start" of his career. ignoring he was getting heavy minutes before and the only difference was the label starter ..(not one person noted it)

few great freshman have stetson as their 18th game of the season ..after receiving 18 games of heavy minutes ..its stetson!!!!!!! stetson!!..if it was so great he would have remained the starter ..he was back on the bench the very next game..because his coach knew it was stetson

if you want to argue "memorable" thats fine..but you are responding to "his best game"

You don’t seem to appreciate that there’s a big difference for a freshman player coming off the bench and starting his first game. More so because the game was played at Stetson.

He filled in for Kendrick Ray a terrific player who was injured and now playing professionally overseas.

Scott should have been inserted as PG in the starting line-up because KSU had an awful PG. But Al Skinner wouldn’t do it as he favored upper class-man. Had nothing to do with Stetson being an awful team as you assert.

I try to avoid commenting on things I don’t
Know.

You seem to thrive on diving right in, and to base your opinion on assumptions, not facts.

There are as many if not more teams in other conferences that are trending downward as upward.

Correction...

You forgot one.....

The Penny hire is going to turn out to be a disaster.

Why in the hell is the AAC tourney in Ft. Worth?

That is the dumbest damn idea ever.

Just scored 6 points against a team with a losing record. Only 3 boards too.

He’s been trash in conference. No one listens

If you watched the game you would know Precious sat most of the first half due to foul trouble, then fell and hurt himself in the second half, and never returned.

You're an idiot if you think he's been trash in conference. You're just blind homering for Cumberland, without knowing what the hell you are talking about.

I think Cumberland is ahead now for PoY, but it doesn't make what you said any less stupid.

I'm not sure we'll make the NIT now.

looking at memphis basketball staff... for next season they need to hire a old grumpy coaach they yells and implodes when there are turnovers..and has authority to punish players and pull players in game

everyone on memphis stay are the "hip" "cool with the players" type...i blame the turnovers on that...there isnt a deep fear of bad turnovers on memphis

They would have to fall 70 NET spots. Unlikely at this point in the year. Not even sure it would do that if they lose out

Did Houston bite or bend anyone this week?

The ESPN series about Memphis and Penny should do an episode about the NIT again.
