I...This was a huge win, but I am a little nervous. I am frightened by a possible Harangody return. The team seems to have found a nice flow on offense (despite the poor shooting last night), and I would hate to have Gody come back and ruin that. ND is playing their best basketball of the year at the perfect time. You know, we are in a rhythm. I just hope we don't go back to the ways of giving Gody the ball right away and having him sit with the ball for 5 seconds while he ponders if he can score or not. <br /><br />The subbing pattern is still really a shame. Ben didn't have his best game shooting the ball so why not give Joey Brooks a shot? Remember when Carleton was leaving and Brey said Joey Brooks was gonna move in the rotation anyway? Well Scott didn't go and where's Joey Brooks now? On the bench. I think when times are going good, we forget why they ever went wrong. <br /><br />Next game to see all these guys play: Jackson, Hansbrough, Abro, Scott, Nash, Peoples, Cooley, Joey Brooks, and of course Gody if he can. If not, then throw the Hammer a few minutes. That'd be a nine man rotation.<br /><br />I can't complain though.

I really question these ESPN guys. I know it's off subject but Todd Mcshay's mock draft last month was seriously laughable. I really don't go off of what these so called "experts" predict anymore.<br /><br />That being said, the Big East is the best conference and should probably get the most teams in the field, but 7-10 in any conference will not get you a seed, unless of course you win the conference tournament.Bradnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37698030.post-29382819919917641632010-03-04T17:27:14.294-05:002010-03-04T17:27:14.294-05:00http://espn.go.com/mens-college-basketball/bracket...http://espn.go.com/mens-college-basketball/bracketology<br /><br />Why does Lunardi still have UCONN in the field? 17-13 and 7-10 in conference? please, rpi isn't everything <br /><br /><br />i would love to draw Seton Hall in the BE tourny, I think we would take them out easily the way we are playing. if not them then south florida would be my second option.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08640164027001269759noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37698030.post-52796565002736284242010-03-04T15:38:41.192-05:002010-03-04T15:38:41.192-05:00what an ugly 1st half, without a doubt the worst c...what an ugly 1st half, without a doubt the worst college ball I've seen this year.

My concern is that Brey will revert back and allow him to shoot at will as before. Scott getting a few minutes and Cooley none. Breys past says that will happen.

I'm feeling pretty good about selection sunday, but let's not count our chickens before they hatch. It will take at least one more win, either at Marquette, or on day two of the BE tourney against a probable 9 or 10 seed (UConn again?), to feel better about it. In the not so distant past, ND has been left out of the dance with one-game-over-500-league-record-after-playing-lopsided-difficult-league-schedule. I think that happened twice in the aughts.Flexnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37698030.post-75674034485329141542010-03-03T22:20:01.680-05:002010-03-03T22:20:01.680-05:00I don't know about anyone else but we believe ...I don't know about anyone else but we believe we are a completely different team then we were two weeks ago. I would have laughed if you said we would win a game 58 to 50 by playing some pretty darn good defense. Isn't it amazing how our best player goes out and we become a better all around team. I love Luke and hope he comes back, but I don't want to see this type of basketball come to an end.Bradnoreply@blogger.com
