@BuckeyeNation27 is Gerry McNamara to Syracuse a done deal? Or is there going to be a bidding war for him?

I think option #1 is Bryan Hodgson from USF.

The Big 12 is utilizing an experimental court surface for their conference tournament. It's some sort of glass surface. It lights up the 3-point arc when someone hits a 3, and lights up the interior of the 3-point arc with a broken glass image when someone makes a dunk. They also are able to put graphics of each team on the court and switch them up depending on the matchups & of course use the surface for advertising images. It seems slightly more slippery than normal hardwood - a Texas Tech player slipped and got hurt after his foot slid when trying to cut for a pass.

The players found it distracting and they are switching back to a wood court for the rest of the tournament.

True, and important. Coach Diebler has proven he can really coach. Indiana and Scum are in the top 8. The good news is that we beat Indiana and came close with a hurt Team with Scum. If Debs can add a high pick at 7' 3+ to our front line I think we will have very good guards to round out a late drive. Debs has shown that he knows talent and also how to build talent (Bynum). Shooting has also taken a monumental leap forward. Scum has a very good team, but they better bring their A game tomorrow.

And to think, that article is about one year old. I'm sure the numbers will go up substantially this year.
