Still throws me off when I hear the old NBC NBA theme music during a college basketball game on FS1.

Heā€™s looks slower/less light. Maybe he had to realize he had to bulk up some to play 5/4 rather than 4/3 when he was 6-8 (2-3 inches shorter than he is now).

Vanderbilt has two former @Hooandtrue dream recruits: Colin Smith and Ven Allen Lubin. So if you were wondering how a @Hooandtrue ran team would lookā€¦ vanderbiltā€¦

Would you describe it as mopey?

their 1-2-3 are all pretty dynamic even if not the most athletic bunch. Kaluma transfering out was a big loss at that wing forward spot at the 4. Miller and Traudt donā€™t bring that versatility or athleticism to balance out their otherwise explosive guards

I would call it moppy, just one letter away

Florida A&M: low key one of the best mascots. The rattlers

Iā€™m so glad all my Argentina FIBA watching from a few summers ago led me to be irrationally excited when Fran Farabello does something good.

Probably true, but Stackhouse has been steadily building Vandy up from trash to a non-embarassing program over the last few years. Curious if he can take the next step.

Not looking good so far.

Edit - Lang with 10 boards.

Edit2 - Not QUITE over yetā€¦

Edit3 - Ok, now its done. They got the lead down to 4 but couldnā€™t quite get there. 7p/11r for Lang in the loss.

So glad someone else noticed this. Also they donā€™t show minutes played. Find the new format annoying for sure

They never did during the game. Minutes would show up a while after the end. That was usually the first thing Iā€™d check on KenPom or whatever.

It was hard not to notice it (or be annoyed by it) during the Tarleton State game, given their box score had 21 players in it (in the end only 10 played, but it was really hard to tell during)

Traudt deciding whether to transferā€¦
McDermott: you donā€™t have to play defense!
Tony: you donā€™t have to run!

(Seriously, Creighton plays fast. Traudt is a better shooter but Miller just fits them better)

Did not even put this on my watch list. Should have doubted Vandy more.

Traudt looks like the guy Duke has subbed in for years in a 25 point blowout with 3 minutes left.
