What's a little choking amongst friends

I had a girlfriend who enjoyed being choked. I never could do it, but she always wanted me to do it. Just seemed like a weird kink

Honestly i don't disagree with you. My problem with coach Woodson doesn't have as much to do with the end results, although i want more win and better seeds in the tourney. My biggest issue is lack of direction for this program or a direction i don't enjoy. Its not fun to watch our team play, even when we win, its ugly basketball. We're trending the wrong way in recruiting and portal usage. I want a charismatic open dialog coach who wants to engage with the media and the fans. I want to be excited for the season, not just the offseason. I know that wins and titles plays into that, but I have also adulted long enough to know when something is trending the wrong way and that throwing money at bad framework won't work long term. I am resigned to this style of play for the next couple years until he retires (they will never fire him). Hopefully then we get a younger more modern style of play from our next coach.

lol, yeah if you have never experienced the CC show, i can see where they might be a little upset lol

again not defending him, but look at his results. he did pretty well just not tourney good the last 4 years.

Agreed but WBB has always hosted like this as does the NIT tourney. Not sure how they didn't know or understand how it works.

Have they not been in the Women's NCAA tourney before. Its not like anything has changed. Also, CC is great at drawing fouls from refs. She should get an award for her acting sometimes.

While i don't like Coach Calipari, has there ever been an indication that Kentucky cheats to get basketball players. They have been a good to great basketball program for longer than i can remember and under multiple coaches. I mean yeah the last couple years haven't been great, but only finished lower than 3rd twice in the conference and had a pretty good run earlier in his career. From where IU is sitting, i wouldn't throw stones at glass houses. Not saying i want him as our coach but i would take these results over the next 15 years

Just like guns don't kill people, forks don't make people fat, and cars don't get drunk and kills people on the road. Social media is no more evil or responsible for people being horrible. 30 years ago it wouldn't have been social media but letters and email threats. People suck. They continue to find more and creative ways to suck. And just like everything else, its the extreme outliers that do most of the horrible things in life.

No sure the stink of UG is off him yet. He isn't a bad coach. Just didnt' do well there

A&M is long, atheletic and talented. Not sure how they didn't win more games but damn they looked good.

I don't think he makes much as a Canadian, they have to get creative and i believe its not alot or near what it could be.

Yup, all they did was move the under the table cash transactions to out in the open and tax on it.

Depaul and IU, seems about the same level of basketball

I went the opposite way. Just started arguing with them. Makes them so mad

do they not do a 5 second count anymore when you're guarding someone? Also, game over for FAU

What was the FAU kid doing at the end of reg. Like he had 20 seconds or something. Gonna lose this game for that

Actually his great neice on his mothers side. Very nice girl.

we will just have to disagree on this. We had talent the last 3 years and this offense doesn't work in the long term.

SAME OFFENSE. Doesn't work in the NBA, isn't going to work in the NCAA. Stand round offensive sharp shooters might help some but its not a modern offense. It just doesn't lend itself to big time winning. Can we win some games sure. But we're going to get ran out of gyms by good team with modern offensive schemes. We have seen it for 3 years.

disagree. Good programs aren't exicting when their NBA bound player is coming back. We celebrate bench level players. because that is how badly we're constructed at the time. We can be better. We should be better.

I dont' know if i agree with they if we had shooters. I feel like he gets singularly focused at times and he is going to shoot no matter what. He has to have better vision. If he is doubled, he has to kick it out. It doesn't matter if you don't trust them. You can't keep driving into a dbl/triple every time. Its basically the recipe everyone used to put 15+ whoop asses on us. Better ball movement leads to better open shots, spreads the floor and gets him 1:1 where he will feast.

This would lead to the exact same system we had this year. Maybe it works. Maybe we have the same results. More guards and wings, less bigs.

Also, if they aren't going to put some actual weight behind it for selections sunday, its not needed

I think we can all agree the NET is broke. Also MSU played like a tournament team today. not sure we would have put up the same fight against Miss State U
