Ohio State @ #3 ttun, Friday Jan. 23, 8pm EST, FOX

Scared. Tilley got blocked early on and the rest of the game his legs shook when he got the ball afraid to shoot unless it was a 3 which he should shoot 100 times per day for the test of the year and get more confident in because that and the drive to the basket should be his game. He's too soft otherwise for the B1G. Guy scored last night but should and could have had 30 against a top team.
The problem I have with the bench is that they aren’t bad shooters, they just refuse to shoot when open. I’ve never witnessed a team who pump/head fakes as much as these teams have the last few seasons. Just shoot the open jumper
When Cupps and White have shot, both seem to rush their release. They may have been scorers in high school but at this level they have a hard time getting the shots off they used to.

As for Tilly, the guy has absolutely no vertical so he’s not able to finish going to the rim or shooting over the top of anyone.

SF/PF Devin Royal (Official Thread)

Unfortunately he was held to season-lows of 4 points & 1 rebound.
He held himself to the 4 points by standing at the 3 point line. He and Bynum need put on a leash for their own good and the good of the team.

They can excel at mid range and in basketball but they selfishly stay out there and shoot. Of course the occasional shot wiill go in if you shoot enough but the ones that don't fall are wasted trips and it leaves the potential best rebounders out of the play. If I'm preaching to the choir I apologize but room for error against really good teams is minuscule enough as it is without making it easier on them.

Cleveland Browns (Factory of Sadness)

Browns are giving their coaching candidates homework and having them write essays according to Pelissero. Nice. We definitely need to be ruling out as many good coaching candidates as possible so we are left with guys desperate enough to write a fucking essay to the Browns begging for a chance. Fuck are we doing. Stefanski had his issues, but the team will have a worse coach next year. Maybe the coach will grow into a guy who can win COTY 2x. Nah they'll can him after two years and hire some other dipshit who wants to ruin his career.

2026 College Football Playoffs Discussion (12 Team Format)

Think of it this way. Right now the top 4 get a useless bye, then we get 2-3 P4 first round games and 1-2 games against G6 teams. If we go to 16 and 1-2 are G6 then instead of a bye the top seeds get a warm up game and we get 6-7 P4 first round games. I’ll take it.
I could live with that.

USC Trojans (official thread)

Ex-TCU coach Gary Patterson joins USC as Lincoln Riley's DC

Longtime TCU coach Gary Patterson has agreed to become Lincoln Riley's defensive coordinator at USC.

USC announced the deal Friday with Patterson, who was part of the College Football Hall of Fame's 2026 class announced this month, recognizing his four-decade coaching career highlighted by 22 seasons as the groundbreaking head coach of the Horned Frogs. He is one of just four coaches to win The Associated Press' Coach of the Year award twice.

"As a Hall of Fame coach who is one of the game's most highly regarded defensive minds, he brings a wealth of success and experience to our program," Riley said in a statement. "His impact will be immediate, elevating our defense and strengthening the culture we've built."

NFL Discussion (Official Thread)

Wow serious malfeasance:

Rivers is pretty much a prior generation’s Allen so maybe they want to double down on not winning big playoff games.
