Basketball Other Games 2025-26 CBB

Pretty much means the good guys would be up about 35 right now if NWU was at PBA.
I guess a college sport now is one that requires enrollment in a college with the ability to fake a genuine pursuit of a degree? I genuinely don't know what the "integrity" of the sport is at this point
Bediako coming back is just ridiculous. If you play professionally overseas or in the US your eligibility should be done.
I’d be willing to hear out a rule where you can enter the draft and if not picked come back but it shouldn’t be more than that
Lots of dudes in college basketball played professionally overseas though and have come to college basketball for years.
It’s still dumb
Honestly think UConn and St. John's would be middle of the pack teams in the Big 12 or Big Ten this season. The Big East is just awful this year.
St. John’s yes. UConn no.
Uconn has beat:
BYU
@KU
Florida
Illinois
Lost @st John’s and Arizona by 4
UConn would be top 3 in any conference
November and December neutral site games are meaningless at this point.
And half the country would've beaten KU on December 2nd. They were not a good team at that point.
@Seaofred92 come talk to this man.
IDK, the Big East is dog shit, that’s for sure. But I think UConn is a legit top 10 team and St. John’s is pretty good. I’m not discounting UConn until I see them lose in the tournament.
I’m not really going to waste my energy or time defending a team with a 13-1 Q1+Q2 record on the year lol. You listed out the best wins but it all speaks for itself. Saying they’d be the equivalent of UCLA or Indiana playing in the Big Ten is certainly a take.
I have them more in the Oregon Rutgers tier, personally
Listen - nobody goes into Eugene or the RAC and easily waltzes out with a win. Even if you have won in Allen Field House.
Bubble team at best
This is a big time game tonight. I think Illinois is better but very tough to win on the road in this league
And of course, the best rivalry in the sport tonight as well
What a night of hoops ahead. Glad NU is at noon today
