not surprising to anyone here im sure, but probably surprising to most of the basketball world. lets he performs like he is capable of this week. http://bleacherreport.com/articles/703667-2011-nba-draft-jimmer-fredette-to-display-surprising-athleticism-at-combineEdited by: blue_mentos

Purdue Boilermakers This could have been Purdue's year. Many projected them a preseason #1. That all changed when one of the best players in the nation, Robbie Hummel retore his ACL on the team's first practice. His all around ability will be missed this year. They also lost one of the best...

I have confidence in St. Mary's. A lot of times you see a cinderella team in the tourney just get lucky a couple times. They hang around because the higher rated team shoots below average, commits unnecessary turnovers and the underdog hits a million 3s and hits a buzzer beater at the end to...

ToughJ, patrick bade doesnt usually start, but hes the first guy off the bench. DJ byrd and Ryne Smith also get a good amount of minutes each game. So there were several white combinations on the floor today. Chris Kramer may win the national hardass player award. what a beast. Boiler Up! beat...

I agree and disagree on this topic. I think naturalized citizens is a joke. If you are born of a certain blood, you should you are always of that blood and should take pride in it, instead of disowning it and moving to another country for a better athletic opportunity. However, with athletes of...

The El Salvador game, in short, was an embarrassment. Yes, it was an away game, in a hostile crowd, with a couple guys out, but these are the games you have to find a way to win if the US looks to make the jump from a mediocre team to one that has serious world cup ambitions. The Red, White, and...

USA played about the worst game I've ever seen them play. It was like watching two college teams go at it. Of course, the weather and pitch conditions probably affected play somewhat, but it was just pathetic to watch at times. We still ended up winning 2-0, which makes me pretty optimistic on...

I don't know how many of you caught it, but a young USA team put in a solid performance and beat Sweden 3-2 yesturday. Sasha Klejstan was absolutely lights out getting the hat trick, which included an unreal free kick. If he didn't already have the starter job in the full-force starting 11, I...

I was rather dissapointed in how the first round turned out as well. Some of the main goals of the MLS is to produce American talent for the national team, grow the sport in our country using mostly domestic players, and create a high level league for the best in our colleges to compete in. Were...

It was great to see Utah play as they did. This win coupled with Boise's win two years ago has to get people thinking about what garbage (IMO) that the BCS is. I'm all about giving the 'smaller' schools a shot at the glory. Yea, the Utes weren't as white as in years past, but it was great...

It's good to see those players recognized for their achievements, regardless of religious orientation. I'm not saying that Collie should be a Heisman winner, just that he should be in the conversation a little. I'd compare him Max Hall this year. He was always a big longshot, and no one really...

i know. its quite dissapointing. wisconsin had a standout white WR (luke something?) a couple years ago (who of course, i believe, was a walk-on), so you'd think they would get the hint and start opening their eyes, but i guess not. its equally a big wonder why schools like central, eastern and...

I believe so too. I mean, Crabtree got a good amount of votes as a freshman. Seems like if BYU had a top 15 type team next year, there really shouldn't be a reason not to mention him. Has there been any heisman winners from there? Seems like with all the tradition in the 70s and 80s there was...

I'm very excited to see Zach play. Austin's numbers were down from last year, but then again, everyone was pretty unproductive as UT was just horrendous this year. It would be great to see them both on the field together though wouldn't it? Apparently, when Kiffin got the job, he went to Zach...
