Ran into a juco coach from Wyoming in darkest Detroit who said he was "trying to find players who don't look like me."

I've heard of the honor code, was just trying to work it with Manning's quote ... unsuccessfully I guess!

Honor code? "Black people have no honor" -- Rev. Manning

When you see Dragic in extended minutes ... he's no Steve Nash.

Wonder who from ND was guarding Marshon Brooks, who scored I think 52.

Tyler Hansbrough's been playing well since Pacers made coaching change. Came off the bench and dominated the Pistons frontline for 21 points and 12 rebounds, and they were impact. The good news for him, he's their best second unit guy so there are plays run for him, and his black teammates seem...

Gasser just banked in a three-pointer at the buzzer to beat Michigan by one.

Why don't these type of players make the NBA? Because a lot of guys can dunk, but that has little to do with actual basketball ability. Jumping Jack Kelly was a legendary dunker in the laste 80s (made his living winning Macker dunk contests and doing commercials), but he was barely an average...

I think Jon will be a "value" pick relative to where he goes in the draft, has skills that are in demand.

Jon Leuer had a sweet dunk on Penn State. Broke down his man behind the three-point line, then one dribble and flush. "The athletic Jon Leuer ... Nice," the Big Ten Network announcer said. Wiscy has a good freshman guard, Gosser?, who is a poor man's Aaron Craft.

Yeah, that one is Minnerath. He had a rough stretch, I guess during his "tat days," but his juco coach said no one works harder at his game. One of the outliers in the back row, #33 Evan Bruinsma, is about the last guy you'd think would play at U-D. He played Class D (smallest division)in...

Nick Minnerath is havnig a good year for Detroit, a 6-8 juco transfer. Detroit has a center from IU who was supposed to be an NBA prospect and a freshman point guard, the coach's son, who was a McDonald's All-American, but on the U-of-D message board they're calling Minnerath the team's best pro...

Noah's from Minnesota, he'd not good enough to be Michigan's leading rebounder :) Is brother Isaiah was a huge disappointment at Michigan State because he just gave up and said he wasn't good enough to play at that level, and sat the end of the bench. He was Minnesota's all-time leading scorer.

Draft Express (has him going #13 in June) breaks down Jimmer: NBA Draft Prospect of the Week: Jimmer Fredette by: Jonathan Givony - President February 1, 2011 Jimmer Fredette is the No. 1 scorer in college basketball, and not by a small margin. That's undisputed, regardless of the metric...

Never thought I'd see the day ... Charles Barkley ranting advocacy for Love, then Stern doing the righit thing.

Wow, just came across another thread about it, on a Bucknell basketball message board of all places.

Indiana gets whiter every game. Just beat Minnesota at home, after great win last week over Illinois and tough OT loss at MSU. Junior point guard Jordan Hulls has really gotten good. Not sure how many of you get the Big Ten Network, but there are worthwhile white players to see for IU, Ohio...

They did?

MSU will soon be back to waxing U-M and doing it with white players like Matt Costello, Kenny Kaminski and Russell Byrd.

Now Jordan Hulls carrying IU with a mini-Jimmer performance, creating his own jumper trip after trip.

Will Sheehy! Have been waiting for this Indiana freshman to break out. 6-5 long, rangy, bouncy athlete now started two games. Watching rebroadcast of Illinois/Indiana game, and he has two first-half dunks. Gus Johnson yelling, "The athletic Will Sheehy!"

Now up to #13 on Draft Express' 2011 mock.

NBA TV had their mid-season awards for both conferences. For the West, the assortment of black talking heads had two votes for Manu MVP, one for Dirk.

Jimmer was on the college group that trained with Team USA this summer. He was the best college player, Durant the best pro.

Sweet! I have CBS College Sports after all.
