Horizon League recap Feb. 16-22: Green Bay wins while Gottlieb out

One week remains in the Horizon League’s regular season. Wright State has already clinched at least a share of the title, but fell to the defending champs Sunday, leaving the door open for someone else to join it. The penultimate week, as each week this season has done, brought a load of chaos, and there […]

Comments from the Other Side - Lakers 2/22/26

 It's always good to beat the Lakers.  I love how Lakers fans went from superstar Reaves to trash Reaves.  Love all the envy of Mazzulla, Brad Stevens and Pritchard.  I'm not surprised by their LeBron hate.  If they win next game though they'll be back to being cocky and overrating everyone on their team.  Poor Jaylen will never live down the hair incident.  I love it when Celtics fans show up in mass on the road.  My favorites are in bold.  What ar...

NC State ends skid with 82-69 win over Syracuse

NC State looked a lot better Sunday than it did in the two games prior—the execution was better, and shots were going in, which does tend to help. It was also helpful that Tilda Trygger got involved early following a couple of no-show performances. The game went back and forth for the first five minutes, […]

MAAC Report: Snowy Sunday; Merrimack outright champs

I bailed on the drive up to Albany for Saint Peter’s-Siena on Sunday, and Bashir Mason is probably never going to forgive me for it. The Peacocks are 6-0 when I’m in attendance this season, and Mason has been seriously superstitious about trying to get me to their other games. Luckily for him, I’ll be […]

Flyers’ Rasmus Ristolainen drawing significant trade interest across NHL

With the gold medal awarded at the 2026 Winter Olympics and the NHL roster freeze lifted as of Sunday at midnight, the transactions are expected to really pick up ahead of the trade deadline just 12 days away. One name that could certainly be moved is Philadelphia Flyers defenseman Rasmus Ristolainen and according to recent reports, there are several teams interested in the hulking rearguard. According to Daily Faceoff’s Anthony Di Marco, the Flyers are receiving trade interest from at le...

Who should coach UNC in 2027?

For today’s question of the day, let’s travel forward in time a little bit. It’s February 23rd, 2027. You are gearing up for the last few regular season games of basketball season before the ACC Tournament. Dylan Mingo is trying to put a bow on his National Player of the Year case (this is my […]

During Saturday’s Syracuse-North Carolina game, the Orange honored two players who were instrumental in launching the program into the national spotlight. The latest former Orange to be honored with a jersey retirement were Rudy Hackett and Jimmy Lee, the leaders of the first Final Four in program history watched as their #45 and #10 jerseys […]

Cam Boozer, Darius Acuff and this 2026 Draft class keep elevating

Selection Sunday for the 2026 Men’s NCAA Basketball Tournament is now just under three weeks away. The stretch run is here, and the best in the country are playing like it (well, except for one). It was an exhilarating week of basketball, capped by the Duke Blue Devils beating the Michigan Wolverines in Washington D.C.. […]

By the Numbers: Purdue 93 Indiana 64

Now that’s what a Final Four team is supposed to look like! Purdue fired on all cylinders in a home blowout of the Indiana Hoosiers in a game that the Boilers used to vault themselves firmly into the 2 seed line for the NCAA Tournament committee’s pre-selection show. The Boilers overwhelmed an overmatched Hoosiers squad […]

Indiana enters the most critical stretch of Darian DeVries’ first season

The college basketball regular season is drawing to a close and Indiana men’s basketball finds itself on the bubble once again, somewhere it’s been more often than not in the past decade regardless of who’s leading the program. It’s not Darian DeVries’ fault that the Hoosiers haven’t made it to the NCAA Tournament since 2023 […]

No. 12 Horned Frogs hop back late, Cyclones let opportunity slip away

FORT WORTH, Texas — For 30 luminous minutes Sunday afternoon, Iowa State Cyclones women’s basketball stood on the brink of something seismic. Inside a building that had not felt defeat in more than two years, the Cyclones built a double-digit fourth-quarter lead and placed No. 12 TCU Horned Frogs women’s basketball in unfamiliar territory — vulnerable […]

Next Up – Notre Dame

Next up for Duke is a trip to South Bend, and while Notre Dame has had a disappointing season, particularly since Markus Burton was injured against TCU on December 12th. Duke is likely to come into this game #1 nationally and Notre Dame is limping in at 12-15 and 3-11 in the ACC. Easy money, […]

Study Hall: Arkansas 94, Mizzou 86

Did you know Arkansas is a very good offensive basketball team? If you didn’t know before Saturday, you do now! The Razorbacks have the 4th best offense in KenPom.com’s efficiency ratings, and the best overall offense in conference play. They are behind Alabama if you include non-conference games, but against the rest of the SEC, […]

How to Watch: UNC Basketball vs. Louisville

After the way that Carolina played the majority of the game against Syracuse a couple of weeks ago, you wouldn’t have thought there was any way that the Tar Heels would have been underdogs to the Orange. Of course they played that game with Henri Veesaar and Caleb Wilson, and going into the game no […]
