He initially chose Miami over offers from programs like Georgia, Cincinnati, Boston College, Xavier, Cal, and others.

I know many will disagree, but I don't think Tom Crean was an awful coach. I just don't think he was a good fit at Georgia. Who are some coaches that are good, but may not be the right fit at their current job and could be poachable?

Obviously fine to talk about anything else but name calling isn’t one of them. Thanks

I have watched more college basketball this season than I have in a few years, but one thing I have noticed about the better teams in the country is that they all play fast, shoot a ton of 3s, and run a 4 or 5 out style of offense, like the NBA. The teams that play a more traditional style, are struggling. Just look at the SEC, the top teams play a different style than we play. We have been better this year than we have in a really long time, but I don't know that we can play this style and expect to grow our program the way I think and believe we can. I think we could be a consistent tournament team year in and year out - with in state talent alone, playing a run and gun, NBA style of offense. & really, once you get into March, its a crap shoot in the tourney.

Thoughts?

Anybody been to a Brooklyn Cyclones (Single-A) game out at Coney Island? Just debating the long train ride (1h+) out there from the city and if seeing a game there is worth it. Will be there opening weekend in April and hitting a Mets game one night, but thought seeing the Cyclones one night might be cool too. I go to NYC 4-5 times per year for work, but have never made the trip out to Coney Island. Thoughts? Recommendations against? Will have the wife and 13 year old son with me and yes, we are baseball fanatics so it seems like this idea is a no-brainer.

I liked what I saw from him. His passing ability alone creates offensive opportunities when we find ourself in these scoring droughts.

I also noticed we played zone almost exclusively when he was in. Is he that much of a defensive liability?

Here's a list of the NFL franchises that have played in the most Super Bowls (in parentheses), along with their records in the big game: (I haven't double-checked these, but think the list is comprehensive and correct)

So they’ve rebooted Match Game. Deutsche Nugget host Alec Baldwin even uses the long and skinny microphone from the original. That was a nice touch.
However, I miss Phyllis Diller and her one endless joke about her own flat chested-ness.
They also changed the bass-line while the (D-list) celebrities are writing down their answers.
Used to live for that mbwaaoaahow! ( buum bum bum bumm bum bum bum) mbwaaoaahow!
Glad to see that they have kept the original bumper music, but Alec Baldwin is just such a complete douche bag that I probably won’t watch again. That is all. Carry on DawgNation.

Will look at individual strengths and areas of improvement.

Starting with Gunner Stockton. Re-watched the non-Texas/ND snaps last night.

Kolten was scratched.
Told he is available for the weekend. I’d guess they are just being careful with it being cold
Saturday’s first game has been moved to 10 am

Love Tony Baldwin hiring Mike Davenport from UNG. UNG was a powerhouse in D2 softball, and Davenport was a big reason why. I think the offense is going to continue to churn (it hit a major roadblock mid-conference last season, which was really disappointing). But can the pitching produce? That seems to be the biggest issue for the Dawgs over the last 10 or so years, even going back to Lou.
