Yeah, and I don't see Izzo and Painter as the type who want to "buy a title"...

Which isn't to say that they're not getting on board with the new world order; I'm sure they're on top of the NIL game. But I think they know that it takes a lot more to have a successful program than an open pocketbook.

I think they both spend to retain recruits.  Dusty May said he wasn't a transactional program...and then went out and bought the most expensive transfer.  It's above board, but if I was a Michigan fan I could not care less about how my basketball team does after two straight years of buying the best transfers.

Literally you are just rooting for laundry at the most extreme level

Pretty sure I already posted this, but they need to fix the preseason tournaments.  They are trash this year, as most good schools are in shitty, fake 4 team tournaments set up for one easy one, and then one made for TV matchup.

Feast Week is the best part of college basketball during the first 3 weeks of the season

Well Colgate is 7-15 on 2s and 6-14 on 3s.

Typical irritating early season game

Definitely expected some backslide on offense, losing their top 3 scorers from a year ago. 

Defense needs to be better, and thought it would be.  Tough to make a call after one game 

Clear that for now Fears is going to need to play 35 minutes for the time being.  Things look real bad when hes off the floor

Buckeyes took on The System. Kinda struggled to defend, which I think will be a theme all season.

OSU scoring chart is about the straightest line you will ever see.  No streaks, no droughts.  Just a pretty straight 3 ppm for 40 minutes

Arizona’s freshman Koa Peat wowed in his debut, scoring 30 and leading the #13 Wildcats over #3 Florida in Las Vegas last night.
