Is this some April fools thing?

I still can't believe Notre Dame didn't go 2 for 1 at the end of the UK game, that's 1 small example of how far behind the times college hoops are you rarely see the 2 for 1.

In some cases I agree, but it sure does seem that college basketball (basketball in general) gets a ton of over the top hate compared to any other sport...

The women ought to disband their tourney because outside of the top seeds no one has a chance
Just have a final four
He does have a point and the NCAA does want a more free flowing game but the problem is officiating more than anything and the way the coaches go after them is pretty bad

Geno is spot on.
NBA >>> MCBB
"And its not even close"
Posted on 4/1/15 at 3:04 pm to RonBurgundy
I hate that guy
Posted on 4/1/15 at 3:06 pm to RonBurgundy
Yeah that's fine, but it's still hilarious coming from a guy coaching in the joke that is ncaa womens basketball
Posted on 4/1/15 at 3:07 pm to RonBurgundy
The talent pool is so diluted. MCBB is absolutely nothing like it was in the 1990s, for instance.

He also said womens bball is worse but thats not the headline

What's a joke is how the same 4-5 make the women's F4 every year. Not only is their product difficult to watch, but there is zero drama or parity.....stfu Geno

The Pelicans don't 2 for 1, and they're an NBA team.
Is he saying this in the context that college rules need to change on defense?

Again...he said womens basketball was worse

Ways to fix NCAAB...
1. 30 second shot clock
2. Widen the lane and increase the restricted area
3. Change the NBA draft rules to what the MLB does. Get these kids that don't want to go college out of college basketball.

No one wants to read that part, apparently

Women's basketball is just plain terrible.

I read the whole transcript and didn't see him say any thing to that effect.

Wrong.

A LOT of NBA scouts/coaches/GMs would agree. CBB is probably the worst it's ever been, right now.
