College Basketball Season 2020-21

[Freethinker]

Tuned in right as NC took the lead. Iowa stormed back to go up by 9 as I type this.

 

[Bucky]

UNC is sticking around for sure. Even they have a couple of pale faces in the rotation.

 

[Freethinker]

Not a bad double header. ESPN has Duke playing Illinois next. I really like watching Matthew Hurt on Duke. He is a very talented player inside or outside.

Also, another good game on ESPN2: Syracuse vs Rutgers. Cuse should start 3 White athletes but Boeheim might be hurt. Rutgers only starts one (Mulcahy) but bring 2 more of our guys off the bench.

Recapping an earlier game, #8 Creighton fell by 1 point to #5 Kansas in Kansas. With Zegarowski and Ballock, the Bluejays were the CF choice but the Jayhawks are better than usual. Sophomore Christian Braun is averaging double figures and Mitch Lightfoot provides solid bench minutes.

Edit to add: Buddy Boeheim is not hurt. He’s is COVID-1984 isolation. Not because he’s actually sick or tested positive. No he simply contacted someone who had a positive test. USGay: home of coward and home of the slaves.

 

[Bucky]

Solid win for Iowa.

Most White friendly Syracuse team I can remember in some time. and as @Freethinker mentioned even Rutgers has a few of out guy's in the rotation.

Luka Garza could be the college player of the year and be undrafted by the NBA. A good comp might be Bryant “Big Country” Reeves. Reeves actually had an underrated NBA career for the woeful Grizzlies before being cut short by injuries. Size still matters in basketball, so we will see.

Michigan's 7'1 center Hunter Dickinson won the Big Ten conference's Freshman of the Week honors. The Wolverines play an ensemble cast this season, but Dickinson is far exceeding expectations and is likely the team MVP after the first four games. Since the NBA isn't keen on drafting centers (or white players), he may be a dominant player for some time to come.

German 6'10 sophomore Franz Wagner is closer to getting drafted for the Wolverines and has developed as a disruptive wing defender.

Of course, Iowa and Wisconsin are still the class of the Big Ten in terms of rooting interest.

Appreciate the insight! Big Ten is loaded this year and Michigan looks to be another solid squad.

Alright just tuned in to see Iowa with a comfortable 13pt lead.

Heard one of the announcers talking up Tennessee. Lol, I swear one of the most overrated College Programs there is!

Gotta chime in on Tennessee. They might be overrated but I’m not sure or really interested in debating that right now. What I do want to highlight is that they are not a bad team from a Caste perspective. Their arguably best player is John Fulkerson, an athletic and long limbed forward who fills the box score in many ways. They also start sophomore point guard Santiago Vescovi. An actual “White Hispanic”, unlike George Zimmerman, who hails from Uruguay.

I remember Fulkerson, cool to see them add Vescovi as a starter as well.

Xavier sophomore forward Zach Freemantle with 28 pts 5 reb on 12/14 shooting in 99-77 win over Oklahoma.

Reeves is a very good comparison to Garza. I don't know if it was because they were playing UNC but I thought of Tyler Hansbrough as a comparison to Garza. Tough under the rim and maximum effort every play.

Iowa beat the snot out of Iowa St....
IState didn’t have a single white kid play....Not one....At the end maybe?
No, I don’t think so......

 

[Jimmy Chitwood]

Iowa continues their run of White supremacy. Garza finished with 34 points on 13/14 from the floor and 6/7 from 3-point range in just 17 minutes (he battled foul trouble early). at one point in the second half, he scored 21 straight for the Whitehawks.

while Garza sat in the first half, saddled with two fouls, Jack Nunge played very, very well. Nunge, whose father died unexpectedly just a couple weeks ago, is an emerging talent. at nearly 7-feet and mobile, Nunge’s face-up game extends to 3-point range.

Iowa State deserved their beat down, in my opinion. nary a single White athlete saw the floor for their team, yet they dared wear “it takes all of us” and “black lives matter” and “unity” warmups. may their season be a train wreck.

 

[Bucky]

Good to see Iowa trounce Iowa State! Garza hands down POY!

Nunge looks to be building his own NBA hype. Really a fan of Fredrick,Bohannon, and Wieskamp. They can shoot it with the best but are also unselfish pass, rebound, etc. Really impressed with Wieskamp as he has ability to shoot the 3 or take it to the basket at will.

 

[Bucky]

Will Baker Texas Big Man transferring. Pretty sure we called that as a bad decision when he signed with Shaka.

Villanova overcame an 18 point deficit at all-black Georgetown to eventually win by 13. PG Collin Gillespie led the way with 18 points, 4 rebounds, and 6 assists. Cole Swider added 10 pts and 3 boards.

Nova has another strong team and will hang around the top 10 all season. I remember a few years ago when Gillespie was pushed into the end of the rotation as a freshman 3-star recruit - fans howled that he didn't have the athleticism to play there, and that Jay Wright had reached too far into the barrel to take such a flyer. The lowest-rated player out of high school on the roster, Gillespie currently leads the team in points, assists, steals, 3PTs, and free throws made.

Plenty of coaches will "buck the system" by recruiting a white center for their otherwise black teams. Others will go a little further and add "just a shooter" types to stretch the floor on offense. I respect that Jay Wright uses white point guards in his winning formula. The only other 3-star recruit on Villanova's squad is sophomore PG Chris Arcidiacono (actually a 2-star to 247 Sports), younger brother of national champion Ryan. Hopefully, Chris carves out a role in the rotation this season, as he may be running the show in a couple of years.

And the hoop McCaffrey brothers are great role players...,The older one more savvy the younger one with what seems to be elite athleticism.

Agreed! Very deep rotation of talented players.

Seems in general there is a lot to root for in The Top 25!

 

[DWF Upside]

Its nice to see Kentucky getting curb-stomped by Notre Dame at the half.

 

[Bucky]

Watching Oklahoma State vs TCU. Affletic contest, poor shooting and lots of turnovers.

Cade Cunningham a sure fire lottery pick, looks overrated.

 

[icsept]

Texas Tech v Kansas tipping off on ESPN. Mac McClung for TT and Christian Braun for Kansas are the players to watch.

 

[icsept]

McClung looking leaner this year. Has a quick 9 points in the first 6 minutes.

 

[wokewhite232]

Iowa/Gonzaga just started and rooting for Iowa to keep things rolling.

 

[Bucky]

Louisville started 0-4 and was still ranked 23rd before today's contest and beating by Wisconsin. Talk about favoritism.

Wisconsin saw that ranking and took it as an insult
