The famous growl had diminished to a gravelly whisper. The cracking voice slowly spoke over the phone. “I don’t think much about a legacy,” Jerry Tarkanian said several months ago. “I did the best I could, got along with other coaches and treated people well.” Villains go hand-in-hand with...

First off, congratulations to the Louisville men’s team for winning a very entertaining men’s championship game. I don’t watch much college basketball and I didn’t have high hopes for the championship either. I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of hooping I watched on television and even...

Bring up the name Ed Cota or Wayne Turner to a fan of the North Carolina Tar Heels or the Kentucky Wildcats. Bring up the name Bobby Hurley or Mateen Cleaves to a fan of the Duke Blue Devils or the Michigan State Spartans. It could be Mike Bibby, Andre Miller, Mario Chalmers, or Khalid El-Amin….or...

By Dr. Jeff A. Glenn / @jagadelic Q: What do you get when you cross a pig with a Michigan Cheerleader? A: Nothing. There are some things even a pig won’t do. Anyone who has known me for more than an hour knows that my pro-Ohio State, anti-Michigan credentials are beyond reproach. I have rooted for...

Photo H/T to Its Always Sunny In Detroit There are some people who can dunk, and then there are dunkers. Doug Anderson is a real man who came to the 2013 State Farm College Slam Dunk Contest with some simple intentions. I’m gonna dunk this basketball, real real hard. I’m gonna jump real...

There are just three games remaining in the 2013 college basketball season … let that sink in for a minute. Can you feel it? That song that we all know is coming on Monday night? Yep … “One Shining Moment” is drawing closer and closer as we speak. As it stands, there are four...

Kanye, speak to ‘em about that Good Life for a minute: Have you ever popped champagne on a plane While getting’ some brain Whipped it out, she said “I never seen snakes on a plane” Whether you broke or rich you gotta get biz Having’ money’s not everything, not having...

Saturday, we’ll watch the Final Four. Monday, we’ll watch the National Championship game. TV timeouts will rule the two nights, and we’ll hear “One Shining Moment” at the conclusion. After it’s over, we’ll wonder why we watched what we already knew was going...

Andrew Wiggins will soon make the decision on where he will take his talents for his freshman year of college to play basketball, take classes with 200+ people and have regular interactions with college-aged women. They say college days swiftly pass, imbued with fond memories, and for Wiggins his choice...

At some point early in the second half of the Syracuse vs. Indiana game, while laying up on my coach, I fell asleep. (I may or may not have also drooled on my pillow as well) Like Nyquil, long lectures and watching any combination of golf/poker/bowling on television, watching the Syracuse Orange(men)...

I can honestly say that I’ve watched college basketball with an intense focus for about the last 20+ years or so. Over that time, I’ve had a chance to cultivate my sincere hatred for the Duke Blue Devils, watch the Oklahoma Sooners (all hail Eduardo Najera and Hollis Price) and Oklahoma...

The Florida Gulf Coast Eagles don’t seem to fit the mold of the plucky underdog we’ve all grown to love when March rolls around. There’s a difference between this team and teams of the past – besides being the first 15-seed to reach the Sweet 16. FGCU looks the part with no luck...
