LOL I’ve never seen someone rocket a 35 foot pass off the backboard except maybe in NBA Jamz.

“There have been so many difficult calls in this game…”

… the majority of which the refs totally whiffed on.

Wouldn’t surprise me if a couple guys sneak in a 7th year without anyone noticing.

If the NCAA grants him a redshirt for his 1/4 season at Georgetown (left team in the fall to transfer to UA in January), which was also the Covid ended year, he would actually have 2 years left.

At some point he might hang on long enough to play with one of his children.

Entire twitter feed is all about the reffing

It doesn't matter who you were rooting for... it was an insanely badly called game.

Bad for the showcase game on the first weekend day.

Good news for the NCAA is that there are a lot of games to go, so the bad reffing will all start to blend together and they won’t take too much heat.

Fuck the JayCucks. On the other hand, I've always had trouble hating Remy. But it's gets easier every game.

Yeah, I love it when people transfer from ASU and go onto winning teams. Also glad he went to Kansas because I can still hate him.
