2013-2014 B1G Men's Basketball

[LitlBuck]

I thought I would start this thread so that we can talk about other teams in our conference such as TSUN "Point and Laugh", "Ladies Frames" Crean, and the rest of the has-beens rather than putting it in the 2013-2014 Men's Basketball (Officio Thread).

I thought that thread should be more specific to miscellaneous discussion about The Ohio State University basketball team.

Mods, please make this a sticky thread along with the 2013-2014 Men's Basketball (Official Thread)

It will be nice to see how the boys from Bloomington performed next year without these two guys.

Indiana is about to lose its second underclassman in a span of two days.

Sophomore forward Cody Zeller will announce Wednesday afternoon that he, like junior guard Victor Oladipo, is entering the 2013 NBA Draft, sources confirmed to CBSSports.com. Both are projected top-10 picks, according to CBSSports.com.

The following mock draft has Adrian Payne coming out and being selected by the Cavaliers. If MSU lost him to the draft, it would be a big blow for them next season. This mock might be a little crazy because it also has 4 scummers coming out.

Since all of the courts are becoming very similar (across the NCAA) there seriously must be only 1-3 firms that design the courts.

Nebraska's new court:

As an early top 5 for the conference, I'd say:
1. MSU
2. OSU
3. Michigan
4. Wisconsin
5. Indiana

Scummers might drop down a notch or two depending if all four of the guys projected to leave for the NBA.

True. Iowa might make some noise as well, as they return nearly everyone.

I hope Doug Collins doesn't feel the need to join his son at Northwestern immediately after Chris was hired, since reports are out that Doug Collins plans on resigning from Philadelphia. I doubt Sixer fans are that attached.

Minnesota has hired an assistant coach who is a felon that spent a year in prison:

The coach was in prison because of one of those aberrations where you happen to have 96 pounds of marijuana with you.

I didn't think you would do time if it was just enough for personal use.

 

[Bucky32]

He was smart to keep it under the Texas legislated threshold of 97 pounds.

 

[BIATCHabutuka]

He probably needed all that weed to stuff recruiting envelopes to lure kids to Minnesota.

Wow. Seriously? Congrats Nebraska!

Nice to see the shift in attitude there.
