2009 NCAA Tournament Thread - Page 34

Penn State wins the NIT. Michigan State wins the NCAA. GO BIG TEN!

As a graduate of Iowa, I can say I really dislike Indiana in basketball. Of course it is a toss up between Michigan and Ohio St. in football.

By the way, did you see Iowa won back to back national championships in wrestling.

The 2009 College Basketball Hall of Fame class was announced. Couple of Spartans in this year's class. Magic Johnson, Larry Bird, Judd Heathcote, Gene Bartow, and Wayman Tisdale are the headliners. Induction date is November 22nd. It also likely means that Michigan State will be playing in the pre-season tourney here in KC next year. OU is also possible.

And after Penn State's NIT win they got a verbal commitment from a Top 100 player who happens to be Talor Battle's half brother.

Exactly just like Ohio State football recruits sign up to get embarrassed when they in BCS games.

Oh yeah?! Well Indiana finished 11th in the Big Ten in both football and basketball this year. WE WIN!!

whomario · 04-04-2009, 05:33 PM

I love MMOD, best idea ever

UConn enforcing their gameplan, Michigan State has to find a way to get UConns shotblocking figured out, they can´t get anything clear right now.
Suton needs to start shooting some of those open ones he gets ...
MSU already in the bonus, too.

Karlifornia · 04-04-2009, 06:07 PM

If MSU wins the title, I will never write them off again.

Not that Izzo's career needs validation but if they win this one, he might move from "one of the best of his generation" to "the best of his generation."

MizzouRah · 04-04-2009, 06:11 PM

I'm rooting for MSU.. good game so far.

I think he is already the best. The man can coach and delivers a solid team year in and year out.

INDalltheway · 04-04-2009, 07:05 PM

Michigan State runs so many players at you it's hard to keep up.. They have 4 big guys that they rotate so well. I feel North Carolina does the same thing in the times I've watched them. Also, whoever the black assistant coach for Michigan State is should be getting some attention for a head coaching job. It really seems like he is the one that is organizing all of the offensive sets on the go, and relaying it to Izzo. And out of all the teams Purdue faced this year Michigan State runs the best sets easily. They get so many good shots it's ridiculous, then the crash the boards about as good as you can.

INDalltheway · 04-04-2009, 07:07 PM

Did Summers seriously just do that?

whomario · 04-04-2009, 07:07 PM

wow , summers

Noop · 04-04-2009, 07:09 PM

I love the way Michigan State runs their offense. That is classic basketball and the way they play defense as well.

UConn looks finished. Rainmaker just called me and said he thought it was unfair that MSU had a home game.

Nicely done

whomario · 04-04-2009, 07:14 PM

the huskies have no outside shooting at all. Can´t believe they have no one that could come in to hit a couple ? I mean, a program like UConn ought to have more than 7 capable players, right ?

INDalltheway · 04-04-2009, 07:14 PM

Did UCONN just give up? Kinda seems that way.

Me too(Like MSU have nothing against UCONN) but I want that NCAA title brought home to the ACC.

UConn may have given up, but MSU is taking some stupid shots.

I think it was just a dig and the complaints early on about all the teams that get to play close to home in the first two rounds.

With about 4:30 left and a 9? 10? point lead, MSU took a bad jumper from about 19 feet out, got an offensive board and less than 5 seconds later took a 20 foot jumper. UConn got the rebound, went down and scored. It was a horrible possession for MSU and if UConn had been able to do anything else could have been a big turning point.

I know I'm a Spartan fan, but in the last 5 minutes or so, I can only think of one bad shot - Walton taking a jumpshot at the key after an offensive rebound.

That's the exact one I was talking about in my above post.

But that's the one I can think of.

Yes, this is what I was referring to when I typed that.
