How far does this drop us in the NET rankings? I joke but playing these guys twice won’t be helpful if they stink.

I recall Clemson a few years ago had Blossomgame, perhaps the only guy at the college level Brogdon couldn’t guard and Holmes who hit 44% of his 3s and went 17-16. After they graduated the replacement starters were bench guys who’d already been 7th and 8th in minutes/game plus they upgraded their bench with freshman Aamir Simms. They went from 86th to 7th in defense (per KenPom) and went 25-10.

So, it can happen.

Comedy. Payne says this. The other team had zero fast break points.

Matthew Loves Ball, and fortunately for us, seems to hate copyright law.

Ok, this is awesome. I’m like “Okay, I’ll watch for a minute and see what happened.” And now Lville is up 13-4, and Withers looks like a draft pick, and I gotta see what happens next…

And now it’s 17-15 LR, and I’m starting to get it… Basically Louisville has no guards and I guess Payne has put off teaching help side defense thus far in practice.

One more thing from me: I want a youtube site called “Matthew Loves Ball, but hates free throws”. Nobody needs to see the FTs on a condensed watch, Matthew.

In fairness to Louisville, the IARP thing may have been weighing on recruiting:
