    Defending 2011 Champions of mens basketball will start off in top 5 this year

    The reigning NCAA Men's Basketball champions will start this year in the top 5, and are strong candidate for the next final four, despite losing star Kemba Walker.

    In the past month top rated recruit committed to UConn to play this year. His name is Andre Drummond, 6' 10", 275 lbs, wing span of 7.5 feet, and ranked in the top two in the country(#2 in ESPNU100).

    UConn also has two more solid players this joining this coming year, Ryan Boatright and DeAndre Daniels

    Scouting report:

    Drummond: Where to start? Few players in America (pro or college) have combination of size, athletic ability and skill that he possesses.
    Daniels: He is definitely one of the elite scorers in the country and has that special knack to score in a variety of ways.
    Boatright: Super quick with the ball. He has the ball on a string. Boatright can get anywhere he wants on the floor with the ball. He challenges taller players at the rim and can finish over or around them.

    These are great additions to an already talented team. It is going to be a great season this year!

    What the heck is going on with College Basketball? Not only is Syracuse and Pittsburg applying for the ACC, UConn is entertaining the same. This is after the defection of Boston College, VA Tech, and Miami. The Big East is in self-destruct mode....

    $'s. The ACC is the 4th highest TV money whore conference in the nation. Pretty sad, and it ruins all the great rivalries of years past. It's going to cost all of them money in the long run.
    QAnon / GOP Republicans mentally lack the necessary intelligence to even tell a decent lie (Ex: A cabal of Satanic, cannibalistic pedophiles run a global child sex trafficking ring and conspired against former President Dotard dRUMPf during his term in office... Jewish space lasers, etc.). What in the hell makes anyone believe these melon heads can actually govern?

    Who cares? Really.
    All the world’s a stage, but obviously the play is unrehearsed and everybody is ad-libbing his lines. Maybe that’s why it’s hard to tell if we’re living in a tragedy or a farce.

    Well, it's not for everyone, but I'm crazy about college hoops. I think it has a lot to do with the players being unpaid amateurs, who (for the most part) play for the love of the game. The intensity of the games makes them very entertaining, especially as the tournament approaches.

    I also enjoy watching professional baseball, and I live for football season. Any flavor ... local high school, NCAA, pro, it doesn't matter.

    While I'm on the subject, I'd sure like to see my Redskins kick some cowboy ass Monday night ...

    Redskins should do well with that Bears cast off.

    Nobody ever knows if the good Rex, or the bad Rex will show up. Dallas' defense is going to cause the 'skins plenty of problems.
