2022-23 College Basketball

Saw a stat last night.   UConn 14-8 in Big East play with 6 wins by single digits.  17-0 against non-Big East with 17 wins by double digits.   Only way to have beaten them in the tourney was to be a conference foe.  

 
Finally !  Brad Nessler you are next!

Now if the NFL could only do the same thing with Al Michaels -  It's been 10-15  years too long with him in the booth.   Had a good career, started in 1977.  I think MLB said "no more" to him in mid 90's.  They were on top of it.  He's been doing NFL forever and honestly, I need more energy and new freshness from the booth - especially with Al doing Super Bowl games and Prime Time games.  It's just a familiar voice from the booth that has run it's course IMHO.  Used to like Al too.  Got exhausted from him 15 years ago for sure.  Same with Nantz 10 years ago, and Nessler too.

Didn't exactly play a murderer's row in their non-conference but they did smack Bama by 15

When I was in college I had a friend at U of Colorado who was interning for ABC, he was coming to UNL for the Husker-Buff game...after the game he invited us out and we went to the Cornhusker (I think) and got hammered.  Nessler was with us, not only did he pick up the tab but he picked up some girl too.  I drank a lot of free Wild Turkey and Coke that night!

Off to Zona.

Only thing he did was talk to this coed about her poetry...he said "Look around, all these guys would be dying to talk to you and here you are sitting next to me" and she was talking about her poems.

That's because we all looove poetry from coeds.  Like really a lot.

Good for him, being a legacy there will make the transition for him easier.   Arizona is melting down as it was thought by most that he was a lock for the Wildcats.
