The action to stop court storming was going to happen, but it happened sooner than I expected. I'm sure behind closed doors and on the phone at least one AD mentioned "lawsuits" for when the inevitable injury happened; injury to a player or injury to a boneheaded fan. Miller never publicly said "law...

I don't see how having played under Lute qualifies one as a member of "Lute's Coaching Tree" - I think having coached with/under Lute would be the necessary condition for such a designation... A strict interpretation would be that approach, but I like to think that players learned coaching skills f...

Mike Bibby's dad is trying for the Sac Kings coaching position. Says he will bring in Mike as an assistant.

Came home today and realized the apartment clubhouse as Pac-12 Bay Area. They were showing Cal vs ASU replay. I missed the last 5 minutes of our game. So, living in Sacto, where do I have to go tomorrow to watch the game? BJs? Applebees? I'm serious here. I don't want to take a chance on some rando...

Jackson is from Detroit, Michigan which works in the Spartans' favor Growing up in Michigan myself, I think that is a detriment, not a positive. Especially now that we both live in Cali.

Ok, I'm sure no one else noticed it, but I'm 95% sure a Colorado student slapped Zeus in the first half. Zeus had blocked a layup under the CU basket and his momentum carried him to the crowd. He turned back to the court and a student fan hit him in the back. The only thing I'm not 100% about was w...

Well, to be honest, it is pretty bad that the Pac hasn't won a title since '97, and that only one Pac team has been to the FF in the past 10 years (granted, three times, but still). And there really is no control for all that due to the dynamic nature of the tournament. Pac 12 has to deal with nega...

Cats shouldn't have to win out to get a 3 seed. In the deepest conference in America? What if that was the Big East or ACC? Ludicrous.

Polls really are giving the Pac the shaft this year. Probably a holdover from prior recent years when we were weaker and didn't deserve many teams in the Top 25.

At the outset of the season, Miller was vocal about how the team has a very high ceiling and room for growth. It's happening right now, before our eyes .

I'd be absolutely shocked if Dusan was anything but a four year player for us. I love the dude but he isn't Roy Hibbert (in college).

I don't have the time to look at metrics, but my recollection is for most of the past 5-10 years we've been soft coming out of the gate at the beginning of the season (similar to our going into the bowl games without the right attitude or preparation).
