NCAA College Basketball 2009-10 Season

Hey Anders5189,

UNC plays at UK this year. How is UNC going to be this year?

We're still going to be real good. UNC should be a top 10 team and the favorites to win the ACC. That Kentucky game will be tough though. We've got a brutal early season schedule, and that game is at Rupp. We'll probably get clipped a couple of times early on, and I know UK's going treat this game like the NC so we'll have our hands full. Should be interesting.

Oh Billy.

Would you want to hire this man as your coach?

Who is this guy?

 

[HD MM]

Who is this guy?

Billy Gillispie, ex Kentucky Coach.

I am trying to get tickets to see this game. May have to take a loan out to get them.

No kidding. I've got tickets for the UNC-Texas game at the Cowboys Stadium. That should be fun too.

FIU has agreed to play UNC. They're no longer threatening to pull out of the contract.

Wow, that's great.

Kentucky? Really? I don't know, way too early to find out if that team is going to jell or not.

Kentucky's got the talent. Just a matter of whether they are too young or not. Also a steep learning curve for everyone to learn Calipari's DDM offense. I'm hoping though. It's been a long dry spell by UK standards to be out of the spotlight this long.
BTW does anyone know if ESPN has released their Full Court schedule yet? Gotta make sure I can see every UK game this season.

 

[meathead76]

As long as Calipari is at Kentucky I hope they go winless
can't stand that arrogant douche

agreed.

Ramy - don't put any banners up where you can't take them down! (see UMass, Memphis)

SHOCK - John Wall's eligibility questioned!!! [ame="http://sports.espn.go.com/ncb/news/story?id=4586311"]SEC commissioner Mike Slive says Kentucky freshman John Wall is battling eligibility issues - ESPN[/ame]

That didn't take long.

So... who is this year's early favorite?

Unlike last year, it's hard to find a slam-dunk #1.

There's really no clear cut #1, but right now I'd put Kansas there.............followed closely (in no particular order) by Villanova, Michigan St., Purdue, UNC, UConn and Kentucky.

Rock Chalk!

Texas will be good too.

 

[Mike0616]

A very good question.

Lunardi has his top seeds as :

Kansas
Texas
Michigan St
Kentucky

When does his tournament begin?

 

[Ramy]

I really don't see Kentucky being a preseason pick as a #1 seed myself. Mostly freshman on the team and only a few returning players with experience.
