College Basketball Bet of the Day – January 4th, 2010

Pittsburgh rolls into Cincy this evening with both teams boasting a 2-0 record in league play to date. Pitt rolled over Syracuse in the Carrier dome just two days ago so they come in with a lot of confidence. Cincy defeated UConn a little less than a week ago so they are feeling pretty good about themselves as well. I didn’t think too much of Pitt a few weeks ago and while they are playing very well I think it’s going to be very hard for them to win two tough Big East games in a row on the road. Take the Bearcats.

Cincinnati -4

College Basketball Bet of the Day – December 1st

Tonight at 9:00 PM EST we have the rematch of last year’s National Championship game and it’s being hosted at the Dean Dome in Chapel Hill, North Carolina. Last year UNC took it to Michigan State, but I don’t expect the same outcome tonight. UNC lost a lot of talent and I think the Spartans have revenge on their mind. Take Izzo and gang!

800 Wins..and Counting

Through 30 years of being a fan of Syracuse University basketball I have watched, listened and defended the team’s hall of fame coach, Jim Boeheim.

Many have maligned the permanent fixture on the Syracuse sidelines for the last 33 years as a mediocre coach.

Well after last night’s win against the Albany Great Danes another bullet was added to the list of reasons why Boeheim deserves to be included among the elite in college coaching and why he is a hall of famer.

Consider this:

  • 800-288 coaching record (.735) – all at one school. Only three other coaches can make that claim – Dean Smith, Adolph Rupp and Jim Phelan.
  • 8th all time in career wins
  • 3rd among active coaches
  • 356 Big East wins – #1 all time
  • 7 Big East regular season champions
  • 5 – Big East Tournament Champions
  • 31 – 20 win seasons, an NCAA record. And he has never had a losing season. Ever!
  • 2003 NCAA National Champions (4 Final Fours)

All this from a gangly walk-on to the Syracuse basketball program in 1963 who by his senior year had been promoted to team captain, and teamed with Dave Bing to lead Syracuse to the second NCAA berth in school history.

Not bad for a “mediocre” coach.

College Basketball is Back

The college basketball season returns tonight with a whimper, but it is back nevertheless. The defending national champion UNC takes on Isiah Thomas and Florida International while Ohio State takes on Alcorn State to kickoff the 2009-10 season. Then later on in the evening Syracuse plays Albany and California takes on Murray State. Things unfortunately don’t really heat up in college basketball until the Maui Classic in late November when teams like Arizona, Maryland, Gonzaga, Wisconsin, Cincinnati, Vanderbilt, Colorado and the home team Chaminade throw down. Like it or not it’s back so if you want to watch the Heels destroy Isiah’s new team which are 31 point dogs then by all means get jiggy with it.
