11/16: Coach K, Lockout Extended, etc.

Greetings all...
  • Coach K is the All-time wins leader.... 903 wins is pretty absurd, but when you consider that he'll probably coach 5+ more years... it gets even crazier... big-ups to him on the accomplishment...
  • College Hoops Round-up... Speaking of Duke... they get the 74-69 win over Mich State despite a bit of a late collapse... Dawkins and Curry combined for 46 points (and 8 triples) for Duke, and Michigan State is now the best 0-2 team in the country... Kentucky overcame Kansas by 10, led by 5 starters in double-figures... what a talented unit.. I can see some stretches where they'll be out-of-sync because of youth, but definitely some crazy pure talent (see Davis, Anthony)... Kansas can't match the athletes, and outside of Taylor and Robinson, you could see the drop-off... Ohio State knocks down Florida 81-74... William Buford led the way with 21 and Sullinger added 16... I don't think OSU is very deep, but they only seem to need 6-7 guys on a yearly basis... for Florida, you can see that they'll be very good on the perimeter (love Brad Beal), but they need to get Patric Young some other help up front...
  • The NBA cancels game through December 15th... the players are going to court... it's a giant catastrophe... I can't even talk about it...
What to watch for...
  • Long Beach State @ Pittsburgh - 9:00 ESPNU - First look at All-american candidate Ashton Gibbs and Pitt...
That's the whole TV slate... I will now light myself on fire...
