What are they asked to do?
Over at MarchtoMarch "Kevin Berger", or Trips Right as he might more accurately be known, gave us the best of the weekend from the national scene in the form of a starting 5 and 6th man. Not a coherent starting 5 (forwards, center, etc) but a nice recap of the more important performances of the...
Texas Hoops vs. Kansas: Post-Mortem
I have a man crush on Al McGuire, the basketball coach that led Marquette to its only national championship. The man had an uncanny way of relating to players when he was coaching and to the audience when he was a color commentator for CBS. He'd throw out stuff like: “I think everyone...
