College basketball is clearly in decline. Many factors contribute. It is the checkers to the chess of the NBA. There is no spacing, the shot clock is too long, there are too many teams generally, and there are far too many teams in the tournament.
As for players, the highest level talent is concentrated on about 5 rosters, the high-mid player…[Read more]

BREAKING: Utah Basketball Hires Chris Burgess – KSL Sports

Report: Utah forward Riley Battin entering portal as a grad transfer – Deseret

These are high school kids. Approximately 2% of them will have sufficent drive and talent to achieve professional careers in football. That some blogger gives them more stars than some other kid, based on subjective criteria, is not expressly determinative of their success in college or at any higher level. It may be suggestive but it’s by no…[Read more]

I guess it’s three days old but I just saw the Tyler Hilinski news. Heartbreaking.  Words can’t express how tragic events like that are. What a loss generally as well as one for the PAC-12.

I always thought it made a lot of sense to put it next to the county jail. That is where it is going to be now assuming it all gets approved.

Starting with bad news how many players are likely to transfer, declare, or run out of eligibility? I think the most likely departures are Kuzma, Bealer, and Daniels.
Kuzma graduates in May and I wouldn’t be shocked to see him transfer. I don’t think he should declare for the draft because he’d go second round or undrafted and another year…[Read more]
